BOSCH D60498 Drywall Dimpler® Screw Setter, Number 2 Phillips

In the past I have used the drywall dimplers that come in the 4 packs at the big box stores. They work ok, but quickly strip on the Phillips head side, and aren't great at driving drywall screws with a good countersink. I am doing a whole home renovation and have had to replace around 8 sheets of drywall in my kitchen and living room. This Bosch Drywall Dimpler has been amazing for countersinking the drywall screw the exact amount needed each and every time, allowing me to follow up afterwards with mud to hide the screws. The only way you can mess this up is if you don't drive the screw in straight. If you drive the screw at an angle it will causes a portion of the head to stick about the surface of the drywall, which you do not want, of course. I have driven hundreds of drywall screws with this so far and see no signs of wear on the bit yet. Great tool at a great price!

Works pretty good however it does like to drive them a little too deep

its slightly gimmicky but also got me to buy it. works as it should, bit could be a bit more grabby and durable but overall does what its intended to do.

For the price, this is unbeatable. The magnet is really strong which is quite helpful, and it does it's job of putting the screws in at a good depth. Very impressive for such a cheap small thing. My only con is that the magnet is so strong, mine attracted some debris inside which is making it a bit more wobbly. Even with this wear and tear it still works better than a different style dimpler at double the price.

I bought the tool and used it for a month, when I accidentally dropped it. Oops, it broke the blue collar which is made of plastic. My fault, no problem, I immediately bought another one. I used the next one for two months when somehow the blue collar plastic cracked and would no longer drive a screw. I didn’t drop it or do anything that would’ve caused any damage and the plastic still cracked. Needless to say, I will not be buying another one and I’m looking at/for alternatives. In summary, it works great.. for a short time. Do not recommend.

Will eventually break, ordered two and one of them broke. Stops working properly once any dust gets into it.

Adjudtment capability, quality.

I had a very small drywall job to do and don't own a drywall guy. So I decided to give this thing a try. It worked great! I first attached it to my dewalt 20v impact gun not giving it much thought and it didn't work very well because of the impact hammering motion. I drove the screws but too deep for my liking. I then installed it on a 20V compact Dewalt drill and it worked like a charm. I set the drill speed to max and went to town. The Bosch makes a nice click or popping noise once the clutch engages and its really easy to know when the screw is set. I only did 4 sheets of drywall so I can't speak for the longevity of the job but I have non clutch engaging drywall dimplers Dewalt brand and they do not work nearly as well as this. They drive deeper and are not as speedy in my opinion. I hope this thing holds up for my small amount of drywall work that I do. The only issue is that you must drive it flush and square or will have a problem getting the screw in all the way. Just user error for me. But its a great product and well worth my money.

Works well, fair life @ reasonable price

Good tool,no hassle, works very well .
