Parkside Performance’s 12V cordless drill driver starter set sits at the compact end of Lidl’s DIY range, aimed at the same everyday jobs as other 12V systems from the big tool brands. The brushless motor matters here, it cuts down on wear compared with brushed designs, which can mean longer service life if you use it regularly.
Who is this for?
Best suited to flatpack furniture, shelving, light drilling and general household fixes where a lighter tool is nicer than a bulky 18V drill. You get two 2Ah batteries, so one can be charging while the other is in use, plus a 60 minute fast charger with auto switch off. The 2 speed gearbox and 20 torque settings help you avoid stripping screw heads, and the metal keyless chuck and spindle lock make bit changes less fiddly.
- Up to 35Nm torque for driving screws with control rather than brute force
- 0.8 to 10mm chuck range, works with common drill bits
- Rated drilling: up to 19mm in wood, 10mm in metal
- Includes bits and wood and metal drill sets, plus a storage bag
