Reviews

Man life couldn't be easier.

"I hope whomever invented this gizmo got a raise. I already own the Kreg® Pocket-Hole Jig 720PRO, was on the fence about buying the Kreg Rebel™ 20V Ionic Drive™ Pocket-Hole Joiner Kit. But, being lazy is powerful motivator. It seemed awkward to use at first, but once we bonded it was game on. Built a rack system for my different battery platform chargers on day one."

Tool is easy to use

"Tool is easy to use and effective. It also solves the difficulty with trying to install pocket screws into long and narrow pieces. However it is challenging to figure out how to initially assemble, insert the drill bit and figure out how to actually use it. Once those challenges have been resolved, it is a wonderful addition to my tool sets."
