Five minutes on the charger gets you 30 minutes of drilling — basically always ready to go. A brushless motor at a budget price makes this the smartest buy for renters and occasional DIYers.
The Skil PWR CORE 12 punches above its price class with a brushless motor that most competitors at this price don't offer. If you're hanging shelves and assembling furniture rather than boring through concrete, this is all you need.
“We found the Skil PWR CORE to be a great budget-friendly option for tackling small projects around the house, like taking apart and assembling furniture and hanging wall art through six months of use.”
