I have had the 10.8 v CSX for years and absolutely love it. It has enough power to drive almost everything including lag bolts, though not necessarily as fast as an impact, it’ll still drive them in a pinch. I even drove over it with my Jeep at one point and it still works just fine to this day, except for the torque clutch sometimes doesn’t want to work perfectly (it still works). So when this 12v version came out I jumped on it and this thing has some power! It’s got all the features of the 10.8 and then some. If you appreciate well made tools, buy it and you won’t be disappointed.Other tool manufacturers (DeWalt, Hilti & Milwaukee) have now also come out with their own copies of the original CSX and while the Milwaukee version is probably the best of those options it is LOUD and I did not like the forward/reverse button feature but it does come with all the attachments except for the centrotech bit chuck as it’s proprietary to festool. That’s not a deal breaker for me as I don’t really think that it’s that much of a benefit for but stabilization, however there’s no substitute for the Festool.
