The Black+Decker Lithium Drill and Driver

* Mom Central received a Black+Decker 20V MAX Lithium Drill/Driver with Autosense Technology to facilitate this review. The views expressed here are entirely our own.

With summer upon us, we often notice a continual stream of things around the house that need to be fixed such as loose slats on the porch to doors that need adjusting. Indoors, shelves need to be put up and kitchen cabinet doors need straightening, too! Also, with warm weather comes the inspiration to take on new projects.

Black+Decker’s new 20V MAX Lithium Drill/Driver with Autosense Technology offers up a fit-in-your-hand cordless power tool perfect for the “I’ll take care of that!” attitude toward fixing up your home. Black+Decker’s most compact cordless drill ever, its textured grip makes it easy to hold and simple to use as an electric screwdriver or drill. Plus, it automatically stops screws flush in the material on the first try.

This drill proves small and manageable, with a small battery pack that clips onto the bottom. The Black+Decker 20V MAX Lithium Drill/Driver comes with a double-ended screwdriver attachment with a flathead screwdriver on one end and a Phillips-head driver on the other. Drill bits have to be purchased separately.

With the power of a much larger drill, this one from Black+Decker makes a perfect gift for the fixer-upper of your home. The Black+Decker 20V MAX Lithium Drill/Driver can be purchased for $79 at your local Home Depot. It’s already on our list as a perfect Father’s Day gift!
