Customer Reviews for RYOBI 5.5 Amp Corded 3/8 in. Variable Speed Compact Drill/Driver with Bag

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had to buy a new corded drill once I realized my B&D drill which I had for nearly 3 decades no longer worked and my cordless RYOBI drills battery no longer took charge (no longer being sold) I was able to install 15 new blinds quite easily and take down 15 cheap vinyl binds. I hope this drill last a couple decades and I am hoping that there are Black Friday specials so that I can buy a cordless RYOBI using the lithium battery; feel free to sent discounted coupons in advance :)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is amazing ! The compact size and price was that I need for quick jobs

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just bought this 24th of June. It has more power than any other electric drill I have ever had. Got a lot done without hurting my arthritic thumbs. Worked like a charm!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very effective little drill here, at an affordable price. I’m pleased with my purchase!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great when wanting to mount a few things into the wall. It works smooth and it's fast like it says. Also comes with a manual.

I only use it one time! Sonfar is good! Less weight compare to a cordless one! And I don’t have to worry about recharge and wait, I only miss the ligth, my old one has it!

This drill is a electrical cord drill its light weight compare to my fathers drills it has variable speeds it's easy to handle it has good torque. I'm happy with it and the price was right.

Great power. I only needed a drill for hanging shelving on drywall, and this performed wonderfully. This drill is sturdy, strong, and easy to handle. I've used cordless drills in the past, but they're much less powerful and they're a hassle with recharging. This drill definitely won me over.

Has stood up to extended use with a wire wheel. I'd say 4 hrs in 3 days for about 20 min at a time. Not very powerful but it's still spinning!

If you are in need of a drill and don’t mind it being corded then this drill is a great option. Pretty inexpensive yet can handle the around the house jobs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] More power than was expecting. Works great. Easy to handle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Best friend gave me my first Ryobi Drill and I absolutely loved it. Then someone I thought was a friend stold it from me .

This is one of my best purchase ever. As a beginner and a woman. This drill is very easy to use and very light. I was recommended this drill by an home depot woman employee. Who said that she owns one herself, and everything she told me was right. Brought it with a drill head set for a very great price. Comes with a handy bag to keep it stored in when finish that have room for my drill head set also. Very nice.

I am an expert DIY with a good collection of tools. I appreciate the convenience of portable power tools but for longer jobs I tend to use corded ones. My wife and I are redoing grandma's deck and I purchased this drill to make the guide holes for the innumerable screws. I wanted a basic drill with enough power and as small and light as possible. This drill does the job remarkably well at a very convenient price. It fits well in my and my wife's hands, goes through pressure treated wood easily and is comfortably light. The trigger speed control is good, the cord is a nice 6' and there is an honest bag that has room for drill bits. All together, this drill is ideal as a small and lightweight tool with enough power at a great price. Highly recommendable.

I needed a drill to do some odd jobs around the house. It seems like a good product. The cord include is long, but only 2 prong in case you were wondering. My only complaint is that the drill does not come with any starter tips at all. I know similarly priced Black & Decker drills at least come with a Phillips / Flathead piece. Thankfully this was fixed by purchasing a $9 Ryobi drill piece set. The case is a bit small, but seems well made, it can fit some drill bits if needed. What is included? The drill itself, the carry case, and a booklet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a few days ago and let me tell you this packs some good power

Light and easy to handle.

I wanted the power cord model. It is easy to use, even for old lady hands!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy and simple to use. It's tough and durable just like all my other Ryobi products I own.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just purchased this little drill for DIY projects. Really like the size and the ease of use. Good performance.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great tool for all of my needs around the house.

This drill should be avoided at all costs. If you need to reverse a screw and remove it from the wall, the chuck will unthread itself and fall off the drill. The chuck cannot be re-thread with anything other than finger tight if that since it just turns. There is no way to keep it still to get any type of firm thread to the chuck. Absolute junk!! Buy something else and avoid this at all costs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just bought this drill because moved into a new house and gets the job done great!
