JCB Cordless 12V 1.3Ah Li-ion Drill driver 2 batteries CDT120J2

Led flashes but will not turn!! only lasted 5 months with very light use.

I bought one of these and was initially delighted with it for screwdriving and light drilling - compact, lightweight and well designed. HOWEVER it stopped working after about two months of relatively light use and so I took it back to B&Q and they changed it for another one. Same story - worked fine for a few months and then just stopped. Nothing I do will get it going again.

Others have reported similar experiences so this is the last time I buy a JCB power tool! I am giving up with this product and buying a Bosch one instead - hopefully I will have a better experience.

I do wish that Ryobi made a decent product in this class as I have lots of their products and have always found them to be excellent and totally reliable, but the Ryobi 12v drill only has one speed so is not equivalent.

I have had 2 of these now and both have developed the same problem after only a few months, LED light flashes, accompanied by a buzzing and clicking noise but no movement from the drill. Don't waste your money.

It has "Three Year Guarantee" written on every side of the box. When it stops working you have to send it to JCB who say they will replace it, but they don't have any in stock. It was hardly ever used but stopped working after just over a year. You have to wonder whether a replacement will be any better (if it ever arrives).

It deserves zero stars. Does not work. B&Q will not honor guarantee past 12 months. JCB have taken the drill back but have not replaced it. No stock and they don't know when they may get in, is the only explanation I get. Been waiting a month so far.
