Strong hard worker
Makita FS2300 does not shine with speed, but it has a large torque (25 Nm — this is quite a lot for drywall screwdrivers). Such characteristics are not accidental, because this tool is designed for the installation of drywall sheets, as well as denser finishing and building materials, including plywood and chipboard. There is enough power to screw them not only to wooden slats and aluminium profiles, but also to metal frames. The screwdriver easily turns self-tapping screws with a diameter of up to 6 mm and a length of up to 70 mm.
Comfortable but heavy
This model is intended for professional builders. Therefore, the approach to the design of the tool is appropriate. For example, the gearbox housing is aluminium, and the gears inside it are made of heat-strengthened steel. The removal of warm air from the engine is organized in such a way that the air flow does not scatter dust. The body and handles are rubberized wherever the hand touches them. Cord of sufficient length (4 m), durable and flexible. There is LED lighting. The fastener screwing depth can be adjusted very precisely (up to 0.2 mm). To the screwdriver, you can separately buy a Makita 199146-8 store nozzle for feeding screws in the tape.
Only a large weight (1.6 kg) can cause complaints. In fact, it is only relatively large, because many models of hand-held power tools are much heavier. But, given the specifics of the work of a master finisher, who holds a screwdriver in outstretched arms or over his head all day long, the extra 200-300 grams, compared to other corded screwdrivers, will seem like a solid load at the end of the work shift.
Inexpensive mid-range screwdriver
The Makita FS2300 screwdriver is such a good average. It is reliable and time-tested, and its price is not “biting” at all (for professional builders and finishers), so the tool will quickly pay for itself in capable hands. But if its weight bothers you, then there are also lighter models: for example, Makita FS4000 and Makita FS6300. They are less versatile, because due to the lower torque they will not cope with screwing plywood and chipboard. But for working with drywall, these screwdrivers are perfect.
