- has a hex stem so it easily stays in the drill without having to over-tighten the chuck
- no wires fell out, and I used it for about an hour
- needed to give my drill frequent rests because it was getting hot from the prolonged use
- had to keep hitting the button in my drill that changes the direction (clockwise, counterclockwise) - depending on how you're holding the drill one direction will be easier than the other
- didn't fit into all of the tight spaces (cleaning up an old outside railing that has some tight scrollwork)
Also like that it has the standard 1/4" hex shank, so one can use it in more tools.
