- This is my review of the Chicago Electric Close Quarters Drill. You can find this product on HarborFreight.com here: www.harborfreight.com/38-in-c... but before you do watch this review to find out if it is worth it!
Probably why its on clearance at $22 when most cordless right angle drills are $200. Just saved me a quick trip to HF. Thanks
Yeah, update a few years later.. I returned this unit and bought another one.. it also has completely died.
Get key chuck version. Mines been working over a year knock on wood
In my opinion, this is more of a "hobby drill" than one for everyday, continuous use, and for when you absolutely can't fit a regular drill in a tight space. I also like that you can handle it much, much better than a regular type drill, like when you're on a ladder, hanging onto a rafter with one hand, and you can only devote one hand to the drill itself. The shape of it makes it easier to handle; I have 5 of these drills, and have only broken one when the shaft snapped drilling into some very old, very hard wood....
I can agree with it being a hobby drill. I have now broken two though.. may I ask, why do you have 5?
@@Isitworthitreviews Since they're out of production, and apparently the parts to repair them are hard to get, I bought 3 to go with the two I already have as backups. I build model ships, from wood, and they work good for stuff like that, and I liver in a very old house, no standard lumber (1896), so there's always some odd space that a big drill won't fit into. I also found another company called Genesis Tools that makes a similar version, and Northern Tools also makes, or did make one...
@@clarencecausey7473 That is awesome. Would love to see some of those ships.
Regarding the drill, I think you are correct that it would be an OK hobby drill.. it is my non expert opinion that if you are someone that is going to use it on any kind of regular basis you should get something more durable.
This dewalt looks interesting.. Although I would prefer a corded option: www.homedepot.com/p/DEWALT-20-Volt-MAX-Cordless-3-8-in-Right-Angle-Drill-Driver-Tool-Only-DCD740B/203316372?MERCH=REC-_-pipsem-_-308060504-_-203316372-_-N&
@@Isitworthitreviews I will see if I can post a small pic; I have built a Landing Craft to fit the Timmee Toys "Dominator Tank" and a few Civil War ironclads....
