Amazon.com Review Cordless convenience is what you'll find with the three-in-one Black & Decker MT1203K-2 12-volt multitool kit. Powered by a rechargeable 12-volt battery pack, the multitool offers three tools--a drill/driver, jig saw, and sander/polisher--in one powerful unit. To change applications, simply switch out one attachment for the next. It's that easy. With the multitool, you don't have to compromise performance for convenience--the tool delivers both, no matter which attachment you use. The drill/driver, for example, offers variable speeds of 0 to 700 rpm, a keyless chuck, an electric brake, and 24 preset torque positions. The jig saw operates at 0 to 3,000 spm and features, among other things, tool-free blade changing, a blade support roller, and a 45-degree bevel for just the right cut. The sander/polisher spins at 0 to 8,000 opm and is compatible with all the attachments and accessories that go with Black & Decker's popular Mouse sander. The whole thing comes housed in an impact-resistant, molded-plastic storage case that can go anywhere with you. --Carl Thress

gift December 26, 2007 I bought this for my college son and he used it for architecture projects and small scale building. It is not for heavy duty work. He has enjoyed it.
Good for the money February 2, 2007 Not very 'heavy duty,' but good for jobs around the house. Try the Dewalt battery charger. The one that comes with the tool is not very useful, since you have to remember to disconnect it when the battery is charged, or risk overcharging.

As you can see, the other reviews date all the way back to 2000, which tells you that this product was designed a long time ago compared to other cordless tools and batteries available today. This set was, in it's prime, pretty good. I bought it for my mom for Xmas 2001 (which has only been used a couple of times,) and bought one for myself (to replace my Ryobi 12v) a year later
One of my (2) batteries became very aenemic after a year, and the other one's pretty much shot now. For light household use, the driver's pretty much average for a 12v, but the saw and sander eat up the poor capacity NiCD's pretty quick. Forget about replacing the batteries, too, since they are the same capacity as the originals, and about $50 a pop! I may share in some of the blame for the relatively short life of the batteries, because the charger has no trickle or shut-off feature, and who can remmber to remove them from the charger in a timely fashion every time?
I saw a MUCH newer B
Four years of good light to medium duty jobs May 13, 2004 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've owned the Multi-tool for four years, and recently had to replace one of the original batteries. A single battery will last most of the day drilling dry wall srews or wood screws. The Saw will cut 1/2 inche ply-wood and the batteries lasted about an hour each doing so. Recently we've added a room to the back of the house 19'X10' and again the driver did a fine job. Now we are gutting out a closet a bathroom and laundry area and combing them into one large bathroom and again one fully charged battery will last most of the day driving screws. I can't say much about the sander, but the noise level is not an issue. The B&D 12volt Multi-Tool is no louder than any other 12 or 14.4 cordless drill.
Show But No Go January 3, 2003 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
This multi-tool set is really pretty, but it is all show and no go. The tools are so heavy and clunky that they are difficult to use. The jig saw has an extra button on the power head that makes it very difficult to use. You actually have to push a button with both hands to get it to work. All of the tools are very noisy and require ear protection to use. The batteries have a very short life and a very long charging time. If you accidentally leave them on the charger it will distroy them. I bought this set for my son for Christmas, but the little elves that built it were obviously not tool makers. I'm sending the whole mess back. No more Black and Decker for me!
