BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX 68-Piece Cordless Drill and Home Tool Project Kit with Tool Storage Bag (LDX120PK)

This has been an excellent choice for my daughter’s home tool starter kit. It includes all the essentials she needs for basic home repairs and projects. Solid quality and great value—perfect for anyone's starting out!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:A name that I have trusted for years. My kids just got their first place and I bought this as a starter pack for anything DIY. It comes with all of the basic tools that you need for anything around the house along with a high quality tool bag.

Recently my old cordless battery finally gave out and will not hold a charge, it's an old NiCad and they are notorious for not holding a charge. I decided to go on Amazon to find a replacement battery, unfortunately it was $45-50 for a battery, so I figured it would be better to get a new cordless. I found the drill and the battery for around $45.00, but after scrolling down a bit I found this listing, and after reading all the positive and negative reviews I decide to give it a shot.The order arrived a week ago, and once it arrived I gave the battery a full charge (3-4 hours), just like the manual had indicated. Today I finally decided to test the drill, and it performed very well. I drove 5, 3" wood screws thru a piece of 2X4, and there was no problem. Someone had wrote a review that they couldn't drive any screws, I'm willing to bet that they did not adjust the clutch. You need to start out at the lowest setting, once the clutch slips move to a higher setting until it does not slip. Next I tried a few of the drill bits thru the 2X4 and it worked fine, just got to remember to go a a steady pace, and back out every so often to clear the material. I didn't try any other tools that came with this kit, the reason it was stupid. They just ordinary tools if you can't use them right then don't buy this item.The only "negative" I can leave on this product is the bag is very crappy. When I received the order I didn't think all the tools would fit in the bag, but it did with some extra room for a few more odd and ends. That's the plus side, however it lacks pockets and the fabric is terrible, some kind of 200 grade nylon (I work for a bag manufacture).Over all, I like this item, and it was a good buy for the price. I was more interested in the cordless performance, torque, and battery longevity more than anything else. All the other accessories I already have, but for the price they were a nice feature, and a good back up. I only use my cordless a 4-5 a year so it's perfect for me, but if you are "pro" this is not for you. Go get a Dewalt, they are the best. I hope this helps someone.

This has been a brilliant, all purpose set for me as I embark on new home ownership with previously no tools at all. I have used almost everything in this kit within the first few months numerous times to affix cabinet hardware, hang pictures, put up shelves, assemble furniture etc.I have small hands, and the powerdrill is very comfortable and not too heavy, it's also got a decent amount of power and the ability to easily regulate speed etc. The battery also seems to last for a long time inbetween projects and during.I have two complaints. One is that the case is slightly too small to adequately store everything without it all getting all jumbled and running the risk of scratching items and/or poking oneself while reaching for something). I ended up using an ebag toiletries bag which works pretty well to compartmentalize the smaller items and of course it also can hang so I can see everything and reach things easily. My other complaint is possibly a manufacturing defect, which is that the bb that holds the bit into the ratcheting screwdriver fell out. I popped it back in, but it fell out again shortly after and was lost. While in the middle of a project in the bathroom, one of the Phillips bits fell out (because there was no bb to hold it in place), and ended up disappearing down an open plug hole never to be seen again. This was very frustrating (it's always the bit you use most often of course). I am now hesitant to use the screwdriver (which saw a LOT of use prior to the loss of the bb) because now I am always afraid I'll lose the bit too. IF Black and Decker are reading this, I'd love their thoughts on what I can do....I don't even know what size BB it is, if it can indeed be replaced without just popping out again (perhaps there was alittle bracket that held it in or something that also got lost somewhere along the way), or perhaps they would be so kind as to replace the whole unit (the ratcheting screwdriver) - [smiles sweetly and hopes for the best ]. I Actually like this product so well I am still giving it 4 stars, and only hold off on the 5 because of these two complaints.

Love this set!! Needed new one after house fire loss of other one !! Great for around the house jobs!!!

I mainly wanted the drill but I’m not gonna say no to a bunch of other tools too! Unexpectedly, the box cutter has been the thing I’ve used the most by far in this set. Everything else works great though. This is a great set to buy to just help ensure you have some of the basic tools needed. The main thing missing from it is hex keys. But you usually get them from furniture that need them anyways.

Powerful drill. Make sure you adjust the settings. It tightens screws FAST. Comes with bits, driver ends and a parcel of hand tools with a carrying bag to boot.
