Worx WX242 Mini Cordless Screwdriver – Includes 30 Bits
Will review when new order received. First product damaged
While the review only shows 4 stars. I’d give this upgraded version of Worx 4v driver a 5 star rating. The seller gets 4 starts on account that I received the product with a missing charging cable and only a twist-tie in its place that I assume once held the cables bundled together when they were still in the packaging. Luckily usb-c cables are a dime a dozen in my home so no big loss. Just wanted it on the record for future buyers to be warned that your order may not come complete, but at the price and scarcity overseas as of now, this product may still be worth it to most.
The tool its self is impressive by comparison to many competitors like Dewalt, Dremel/Bosch Go, Skil, Craftsman, and Vessel of the electric screwdriver variety. If you’re familiar with these, what makes this update to last Worx model noteworthy is the 2Ah battery, usb-c with dust cover (Bosch/Dremel & Skil lacking), simple forward and reverse switch with electric break, LED ring lighting, and a quick release locking chuck for bits. It still all fits in a pocket size design (similar size to a multi bit screwdriver) and has an appealing 5nm of torque for its size. The button controls are well placed away from where your palm may press while using (Dremel/Bosch & Vessel lacking). This is serving well as a tool for my diagnosis part of work where a few fasteners are common at a time and with light use a charge should get you through one work week befofe charging, although your own use will vary. The LED ring light is bright and practical, a definite must for drivers, just like usb-c charging ports for anything with a built-inbattery, why other brands only use 1 LED or none at all is beyond me. I can’t comment on the included bits since I have my own assortment of Dewalt, Milwaukee, and Bosch that I prefer, but I’m sure those bits will get you by as a minimal DIY user of this product.
From a professional standpoint, I’d say this fits perfectly for light fastener applications and if packing light is important. WORX must have been listening to feedback when designing this updated model, because it hits the nail on the head for every must have feature for a 4v driver that is appealing to not only DIY users but professionals should give this a glance too.
Good
