I Finally Found an Electric Screwdriver Kit for All My Home Projects, and It's 39% Off Right Now
No matter where I'm living, I inevitably end up needing to make some repairs, do basic maintenance or even build a piece of furniture here and there. But I've found that this doesn't always have to be a bad thing, and having the right tools can make a world of difference. Right now one of my favorite tools, the Hoto electric screwdriver, is available for 39% off at Amazon when you use the code SXUYKW46, dropping the price to just $39.
One of my favorite things about this 3.6-volt screwdriver set is its capsule-like design. It's minimalist and compact, so it's easy for me to stow it away in a drawer. It comes with 12 2-inch S2 steel magnetic bits, making it a cinch for me to change for different projects. It weighs under a pound and provides three different torque stages and a high rotational speed of 220 rpm. It also has a circular LED lamp that automatically lights when in use and helps me aim when I'm dealing with dark spaces. Plus, this model charges using USB-C, which is highly convenient -- and a full charge can run more than 1,000 screws before it needs to refuel, which means I don't have to stop and recharge while I'm working on a project. The "screw-unscrew" buttons and the smart instant stop are both user-friendly features as well.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
Electric models can save you a lot of time on home projects like putting together furniture or installing decor and are less physically demanding to use than their manual counterparts. I bought this screwdriver set three years ago and have used it to assemble rocking chairs and furniture, as well as changing out hardware on cabinets. I've enjoyed the convenience of having a set with multiple bits ready to go -- and the compact design also makes it easy to store. Whether you're buying it for yourself or as a graduation or Father's Day gift, this is a great option for any home.
CNET's buying advice
Occasionally investing in new tools is a good way to make projects around your home a little easier. This screwdriver set is convenient and I continue to love this tool even after years of use. It normally lists for $60, but this 39% discount slashes that price to just $39. Spring is a great time to get a jump on home improvement projects, and this would also make a nice gift for a graduate moving into their first apartment.
