BOSCHPS42N 12V Max Brushless Impact Driver (Bare Tool)

I work as a handyman so am using my tools daily. Bought one of these several years ago and always have it with me. Powerful and compact. Very reliable. Unfortunately left it on top of a stepladder and it fell 8ft onto concrete. Need a new one!

This impact driver has great build quality and delivers fantastic output. Have not run into anything this tool couldn't handle

Recently purchased this new brushless model to replace a brushed one that I’ve had for over 5 years. Absolutely love this updated model. Some updates include, 2 speed choices, an on/off light function, a belt clip, super efficient brushless motor that’s not only great on battery life but also half as loud and a much less jarring feel during use!

Thank you!!

Was a replacement since I actually work for Bosch, yet was stolen again from my service vehicle. So no more tool storage in the vehicle.

This is a good tool for small screws especially working above head, it doesn’t do very well with 3” sds screws, but having an impact that fits inside your tool bags is great

This is certainly not a beast of a driver. I got the same model as my regular non-impact driver, which I love. It fits great in my hand and has the right ergonomics for me. I have a much bigger different brand driver which has been a real workhorse which I love. But I will always reach for this one for home projects and even commercial for lighter duty.Plus it is Bosch quality. I have had a lot of Bosch tools and they have never let me down. Excellent quality. This does have a smaller battery - it is a smaller driver - but that makes it light. Of course that also means it doesn't last as long on a charge as a bigger battery. It does charge fairly quick. I bought this model since it uses the same size as my regular driver which came with two batteries.It is not the strongest impact driver and won't do a really heavy duty job. I would go with a bigger driver for those jobs. But for driving screws for building a fence it is great. It would need several charges for a long fence but is great to grab and go. I used it to drive 4" screws into a door frame and into the studs behind it on a door hinge. I needed to bed the hinge deeper to correct a sag. It did have to work hard towards the end of each screw but it did finish each screw with some effort. That was a pretty hard job. It would have no problem hanging sheetrock though.I like it and would recommend it for what it is designed to do.

I like the way it has speed control.
