Black & Decker has taken five popular home workshop tools and put them together into one compact, cordless unit in the Black & Decker 14.4-volt cordless multi-tool kit. The 14.4-volt model offers five interchangeable, locking heads that provide drill/driver, circular saw, jig saw, router and sander/polisher features. While not as powerful or feature-laden as most stand-alones, the multi-tool provides an excellent starting point or addition to a home enthusiast's arsenal. The drill head operates at variable speeds of 0-700 rpm. A 24-position clutch provides up to 115 in./lbs. of torque. And a 3/8-inch keyless chuck makes bit changes easy. The 3-3/8 inch circular saw features a 20-tooth carbide tipped blade and operates at 0-1,100 rpm. A spindle lock allows quick blade changes, while a thin kerf minimizes waste. The jigsaw features Black & Decker's exclusive, tool-free QuickClamp blade change system. A see-through bezel offers a cleaner view of the cut line, while a blade support roller keeps the blade straight for an accurate finish. The router features a 1/4-inch collet and spindle lock. Good visibility, micro-depth adjustments and an operating speed of 0-8,000 rpm make it well-suited for small, high-speed project work. The sander/polisher is also versatile. It reaches into tight spaces, accepts Mouse attachments, and spins at 0-8,000 opm.--Carl Thress

Perfect for casual home repair I bought this over 4 years ago and love it. I'm not much into heavy-duty home repair but I have used this to build simple box furniture. I've had no problems with the drill, either saws, the sander and have not had the need for the router yet. The one battery did die on me fairly soon so I bought an additional battery and the better battery charger (recommended by amazon customers). As a young, female, condo owner without a lot of experience, this is my perfect tool. Oh, and my father is always trying to... more info
LOVE IT After finding out that I had been secretly borrowing my brother's chop saw to cut shingles, he bought me this kit for Christmas 4 years ago. He showed me how to use each piece and forced me to return demonstrate them all back to him. I am in love with the circular saw!!! I have used it mostly to cut shingles for 3 sides of a summer house (saving me from having to hack away with a utility knife all summer)and also sheets of plywood!!! While it doesn't cut real thick items, it is perfect for most projects you... more info
I'm writing this two years after buying mine I've been using this kit extensively for two years on myriad job sites. I'm now looking to buy a second one, because this one has held up so well and I want to keep one at home. I was skeptical at first that the snap-on head design was going to be robust enough for frequent use, but it's been rock solid. I mostly use the drill, circular saw, and sabre saw attachments, but routinely find work for the router and sander. B&D calls the sabre saw a jigsag, but it's not remotely as maneuverable as a real... more info
Don't attempt to buy this directly from Amazon !!! Hi I ordered this from Amazon on April 11th and at that time they said they will be delivering the product by May 21st. By June 21st they send an email saying that product is not yet in market so need more time and hence need my approval. So the delivery date was postpine to June 19th. Later they again said similar reason and postpone the date to July 17th and when I enquired about the reason through a web posting (the same product is readily available with Uncle Joe's in amazon) they said they will... more info
