Is this drill sized and weighted well for use by a woman?

I bougt this drill for my daughter. I went to Home Depot and spent two hours going over the various brands and packages available. For the torque vs price vs handle designed for a woman, the Black and Decker was the clear choice. Most of he professional quality tools have larger diameter handgrips. The Black and Decker is well balanced and has a small enough handle for a woman's hand. Some of the drills are llighter but because of the balance, they feel heavier. I have caution regarding the longeviity of the Black and Decker brand but I imagine that my daughter will only use the tool occaisionally. I'm hoping it will last her a lifetime.

The drill is small and compact. Not heavy but feels solid. My daughter likes to use it. I would recommend this to anyone, male and female.

Yes, it is tiny. The dimensions on the product page (10.65" tall) are not at all accurate. It's more like 7.5" tall.

I use it and I am a woman with small hands. It is not as heavy as my husband's regular drill but it is more sturdy than my previous B&D; driver/drill. I prefer this one even though it is a bit wider in the grip and a tad heavier. It's my favorite gadget.

I would think so, Its fairly compact, the grip is ergonomic,with rubber front and back on the grip.Its not big and bulky,like most drill /drivers. I hope this answered your question

In fact it is TOO light. It is small and compact which is nice but it is severely under powered for anything except the lightest use. It is acceptable for, say, putting together furniture but it is not at all useful for drilling into wood or even driving a screw into wood. I am very disappointed in this product especially as it has received many good reviews and it is rather expensive for what it is.

No it is not, But it is a light drill and I like it anyway. I reccomend it without doubt.

Not knowing your husband, that is a pretty open ended question. If your husband is really into power tools, he probably with want multiple tools rather than one tool that can do multiple tasks. However, if he is just a weekend handyman, this is a great drill that can, with the accessory attachments, do many "honey do" jobs with ease.

My wife got this one for me (more work around the house). I works great for me. I have not had any problems with it. Have not really tested how long it will last on a change. She got a set of drill bits with it because it only comes with a Philips head screwdriver bit. it is a good buy.

I would say so...Its a good tool and works well. Even if the drill doesn't spin fast enough, it will just take longer to complete your project

It is definitely suitable for a woman! I have personally tried it! It has a ratcheting handle for easy pruning!

Probably, but the drill itself is a little wobbly (1mm) so if absolute precision is needed, spend some more money on a better model.

I haven't weighed it but started using it with a thumb joint that needed surgery and it was ok, soreness in the joint after though. Now that I have had the joint repaired I use it to thin out my bamboo groves (heavy use that is) and I have no problem using it. So it's managable for women to use.

The length shouldn't be an issue if your drill is powerful enough to handle the load.

As long as you use carbide-tipped drill bits that are made for this purpose. A spare battery would be useful if the work is really difficult. I have purchased four B&D; tools that use the same battery, so I always have enough for any of the jobs I may do.

Yes it will drill without wobbling. Hold handle true and it will not wobble.

Depends. It's not self propelled so it does require some pushing strength. It's not extraordinarily heavier than other mowers. So it's definitely suitable for avg men and women to use it.

Well... it depends . It's too slow for drilling. So I wouldn't recommend it for that purpose. But I have drilled a few things...took some elbow grease.

Yes. I have not used the drill much but it seems to be pretty powerful. Hope this helps.

Depends on the strength of a woman. I have no problem as I'm strong and have always used different types of equipment. I have no bad remarks to make about this mower. If you have a flat surface, I would not hesitate to recommend. Not a problem for me. Hope this helps. I had one with cord and ran over the cord so got this one.

Yes, it is for sure an adult placement tool. As shown, you can use it for ladies sizes up to 2X and mens sizes up to 4X. This is not the Jr. (Little Buddy) version, which can be purchases separately, although the ruler has inches beginning at 1 inch and can be estimated for childrens sizes.

Yes. After using this I can say it is for men and women. Regardless of gender, I have to say it is fast paced and those not familiar with the exercises will need to hit pause until they get used to the fast pace. Make sure you have all of the equipment too. Other than that, go get em!
