) I had read the specs and other reviews on this driver and thought it would be a good tool. It's a great tool

Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2014

Verified Purchase

My old impact driver that I'd had for five years gave up the ghost while doing a deck demo that had thousands of rusty embedded screws. (By the way, a week after I bought the first one I dropped it off a roof which tumbled down to a deck and then bounced another 12 feet to the ground--no damage.)

I had read the specs and other reviews on this driver and thought it would be a good tool. It's a great tool. The three different power level option is so useful. I find myself using this feature a great deal especially when you need to be delicate. The tool is lighter and the grip is very comfortable. I use 4 amp hour batteries so I get complacent to charge them because they last so long. The driver chuck is easier to use than the old version and the 1/2 inch chuck is perfect. But finally, the lights, OMG, when your 56 years old and your rods and cones are in short supply the three LEDs are a godsend. Bosch must have had late middle age designers working on this tool.

Best impact driver on the market in my opinion. Read review for details.

Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2017

Style: Bare-ToolVerified Purchase

Well it's Bosch what can I say other then the best of the best. Highest rated cordless impact they make and the Half inch combo drive works great. I saw reviews about having to have deep sockets to use that part of the tool but I haven't ran into that once. I've used multiple brands of sockets and they snap right on. And there is no little ball like a ratchet to lock it on but some how it does because the last little bit when u put on the socket it clicks into place. Just the other day I lifted the back end of my dad's 32inch Rv to put the Jacks down to park it. Pretty impressive for a wireless impact. Anyways super impressed and love the red rubber grip to grab to slide bits in and out. They really thought this out. I watched videos of others being faster driving 20 screws in so many seconds or other un-realistic test like that but there is a reason the impact drives at the speed it does. Bosch knows what there doing and I have 5 other 18v Bosch tool like drill, reciprocating saw, ect. Never had one problem. Plus 3 year ProVantage Warranty is pretty cool. Anyways I'll stop talking so u can buy this impact driver, you won't regret it!

The 2 ah batteries I have do get used up quickly for heavy duty work like this, but they also charge amazingly fast

Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2016

Style: Bare-ToolVerified Purchase

Exceeded my expectations. I was able to used this to remove lugnuts on my truck, torqued to over 100ft-lbs and remove lots of large rusty fasteners when replacing the shackles. Its size allowed me to get where my corded impact driver would not. The 2 ah batteries I have do get used up quickly for heavy duty work like this, but they also charge amazingly fast. I've yet to find a fastener this could not break loose (with the help of some pblaster and map gas that is). Very nice tool.

Replacement for a lemon I hope.

Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2017

Style: Bare-ToolVerified Purchase

I bought this as a replacement for the same style Bosch impact. My old one was bought when this model first came out. The old one was mostly used in the shop under normal circumstances. After using it on a couple of steel building projects the trigger started to malfunction. The cost of repair was close enough to the cost of a new bare tool. I stuck with Bosch mostly because I have the 4 amp batteries. I hope this one holds up, or I will be going yellow and black.

Works good for light to moderate duty use

Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2016

Works great, has 3 led lights, adjustable speed/torque. Both 1/4" hex for speed lock bits and 1/2" square for sockets for convenience. Does not seem to have the torque I wanted for heavy duty applications such as lug nuts. Tightened a bolt as far as it would go, then used my torque wrench to check it. It was less than 100 ft pounds all-in.

I'm a deck builder. I have to say that I was not impressed with this tool. Not only that but I was disappointed. I used it for a month and from the start the bits were getting stuck in the tool. Most times I had to use pliers to remove the bit. Sending it back.

I've been looking at impact drivers for a while. I finally broke down and bought it and I love it. I've been building a deck and this tool has earned its stars. I already had numerous Bosch tools so I went with Bosch again because of the quality and I already had plenty of batteries. I love the three impact settings and the great work lights on it. You won't be disappointed.

Nice impact driver. Three torque settings. Can drive small screws without over tighten them. Too small for wheel bolts. I have only 2ah batterys. That's seems to be okay.

Max Torque is obtained on Max Speed setting!

Reviewed in Canada on March 9, 2017

Style: Bare-ToolVerified Purchase

I love this tool. Perfectly balanced. Fits my hand perfectly. Loosened my wheel nuts easily. I checked the breaking torque on an adjacent wheel nut with a torque wrench and it showed 120-130 ft-lbs. So the claimed 1650 inch-lbs (137.5 ft-lbs) torque is not overstated. Note: max torque is obtained on the max speed setting!

This tool will also make a perfect working companion to my Bosch drill. Using a pilot drill bit in the drill and screwdriver bit in the impact driver will speed up wood construction projects considerably and the impact driver can share batteries with the drill!

The only drawback is the impact driver does not have a detente pin anvil to hold sockets. Instead the anvil has a thin wire ring at the nose of the anvil for the socket to slide over which then snaps into an indent in the socket. It works well but has already scratched the paint off the wheel socket and I expect the friction of inserting and removing sockets will eventually wear through the wire ring so I have greased the ring to reduce friction and delay the inevitable failure of the ring.

On the plus side the screwdriver bit holder is well designed and convenient. Just push the red ring forward, insert the bit and release the ring.

The light comes on temporarily when the light button is depressed. It then goes out and afterwards activates with the drill trigger, staying on for a short while after the trigger is released. The light can be de-activated to extend battery life by pressing the light button again.

Phenomenal free shipping speed: ordered late Thursday, shipped on Friday, arrived at my door before noon Monday.

Amazing and solid tool for daily work

Reviewed in Canada on August 26, 2019

Style: Bare-ToolVerified Purchase

I have to be honest, I am extremely satisfied with this impact driver. I work as a sub-contractor and have to assemble loads of objects. It was used for intensive sessions of concrete tap-con screwing and it held up battery and power extremely well. I was amazed. The hammer function it has is truly amazing for small jobs requiring a punch while screwing.

I am also a mechanical addict and play with my car all the time. The 1/2" chuck is amazing when it comes to putting any type of socket.

Overall this drill has a great ratio of weight+power VS Size and it is able to manage pretty much anything you can throw at it!

We have used this product for some time in the industrial steel industry for tightening down smaller structural bolts. Also works great for installing concrete anchors, lots of torque and battery life is good.

Beware!

Bought for: 3 speed, 1/2" socket, brushless, high torque (I realized later that was overblown) and also had Bosch batteries. Very slow. LED light casings are easily broken. First driver, the handle broke at the base. Replaced. New one had intermittent problem with the switch that finally completely went out. Put one from first driver. Switch started to have intermittent problem and finally the handle broke at the base too. Bought a Makita, very satisfied so far after half a year of use.
