About this deal

Between the first two types, your choice really comes down to where you’re trying to work and what feels right to you.

Innovation : Key to Makita's vision is the constant strive for innovation in their technology and their products. You don’t have to be an Ikea addict to know that assembling flatpack furniture can be a chore, while putting all the screws in place soon gets old in any DIY or PC-building project. The weight of any handheld tool is important, particularly for prolonged use, and electric screwdrivers are no exception. Happiest when found in his shed, he hopes his daughter will find a passion for making things as well. Faithful Japanese tool brand Ryobi have been making waves with their range of awesome power tools, all powered by the same type of rechargeable battery.There’s the usual range of crosshead, flat head and PoZi bits, but also some Torx and even some hex shank drill bits . From their safety solutions like AVT and dust extraction, through to their Lithium-Ion battery and chargers technology, Makita is at the forefront for new ideas. Carrying around a full set of screw bits is a bit excessive, but make sure your kit contains the most common bits – flat, Philips, PoziDrive and Torx are what I’d recommend.

For improved performance look for a variable speed control function and the number of torque settings that the cordless screwdriver provides. The ideal accompaniment to a full size cordless drill, you won’t have to keep changing drill bits all the time. In a nutshell, electric or cordless screwdrivers are made to take the hard work out of most basic DIY jobs, in most cases replacing the use of a manual screwdriver. The seventh generation of Bosch’s cordless classic loses the cool colours and rounded styling of the sixth, but makes up for it with a higher maximum speed of 235rpm, plus an extra 1Nm of torque.

It has a choice of ten speeds and more than enough torque to get screws in and out of denser timbers. And if you need the light touch of a manual screwdriver, you can lock off most electric screwdrivers and use muscle power if you want.

You don’t need to wreck your wrists using a manual screwdriver when hanging up pictures or assembling flat pack furniture anymore. These lock on to the body of the IXO once you remove the section surrounding the magnetic bit holder, providing more scope to get a screw into awkward spaces next to a wooden panel or beneath a horizontal strut. Nm of maximum torque and the 215 rpm generated by the motor make it powerful enough for most screwdriving tasks around the home and garden, such as assembling flat-packed furniture.Electric screwdrivers are as easy to use as manual screwdrivers, but there are a few things you can do to make your life even easier. But the best electric cordless screwdrivers can take the sting out of any teeth-gritting tasks, such as removing old, rusted-in screws and driving self-tappers in without a pilot hole. Compared with the more expensive Bosch IXO screwdriver, I’m impressed by the range of included accessories.
