In my experience over the past 5 years or so, Black & Decker haven't
made a
decent electric tool/appliance. I have bought one of their small
drills,
then returned it when the motor seized up after 2 months. The
replacement
worked for a year, then the motor developed an open circuit. Same for a
small jig saw -- the blade moved up and down at about a 5-degree angle
off
vertical. The same for a small electric screwdriver.

The company must have been taken over by some Wall Street group to suck
the
assets out of it, I don't know. Their stuff used to be quite good, but
now
I wouldn't touch any of their stuff, sorry to say.

Hi Fred
Black & Decker only mfe. light duty power tool,thus only for small litte
job.
If you need long lasting tool you should have buy heavy duty tool eg. AEG
power
tool I have one AEG 1/2"power drill use for twenty five years, which do
not have
any problam,untill my friend did not return back to me after he borrow
from me.

These were all used in light duty - extra light duty. They just haven't
held up to normal use. Thanks, but don't need 1/2" or larger tools.
