perfect if used with an IMPACT DRIVER:

I've owned this chuck for a few years now, and am very pleased with it.
It is very well made. With a little practice it is a slick, quick, sturdy chuck.
If my memory serves me correctly, this item is intended to be used with an IMPACT DRIVER.
To load a bit properly requires the following steps:
1. insert the bit and loosely tighten the chuck by hand
2. wrap you hand around the chuck, grasp it medium tight and power up your impact driver. This locks the bit securely in the chuck... more info

Heavy Duty:

Makita makes good stuff.
This piece is more than what I needed it for,
but I'll keep it anyway. Hex drive screw driver.

Works Great!:

Converted my hex driver into a drill. One tool for both jobs. Drills most holes in wood without the hammering action and is easy to load/unload the bit.

Less than I expected:

Given the high caliber reputation of Makita, I was surprised at the poor performance of this product. The racheting feature that apparently is designed to prevent overtightening just has the effect of not tightening the grip at all. Drill bits of all sizes slip right out, often staying behind in the material. This makes removal awkward at best. The overall construction and machining seem good, but a flaw in the design. I'm returning mine.
