I've owned a number of rechargeable screwdrivers. This Craftsman 4V unit is the best of the lot. It is fairly small. Has 2 speeds the low speed is geared for torque to drive tougher screws. The LED light is actually useful, contrary to some others. The quick grip chuck requires use of a magnetic hex shank bit holder, but these are commonly available and one comes with the unit. No clunky reversing button forward/reverse is top/bottom of the trigger. Balance is good, so you can use it upside down in limited access locations. The lithium-ion battery holds a charge for a very long time, and gives more than 50 screws driven, even with #12 size and torque. The variable clutch works well, although I can't see much use for the lower settings. My only complaint is that Sears doesn't seem to carry parts for this unit, a major departure from the history of Craftsman. I lose or damage chargers, and if Sears sells a separate replacement for this driver, I can't find it. When not on sale, this driver is pricey 25% more than the competition, but you can almost always find it discounted.
All in all, a very capable power screwdriver, with an excellent Lithium-ion battery. I'd buy another. In fact, I have bought 4.

This is a great little drill. Super small and compact design, yet packs enough power to handle 80% of your needs. Your hand won't get nearly as tired from holding this thing when compared to a full size drill. This thing is small enough to fit in your pocket and carry around the house. It has an adjustable torque ring, and HI and LOW speed operation. It's a very handy tool, and I've been very happy with it.
Pros
Light and compact design. (Fits in your pocket)
Suprising amount of torque
Easy quickchange style chuck
Cons
Chuck only accepts hexbits. Does not accept standard round drill bits.
All in all, you're gunna use this thing a lot. Hope that helps!
