For $39 I would say you did well, just don't complain if the drill itself doesn't last long! A drill at that price is most likely for the homeuser who is doing light projects around the house. I definatley would not use it for heavy duty construction work as it most likely wouldn't last three weeks. If heavy duty construction work is what you are doing I would check into a few brands such as: Ridgid, Dewalt, Milwaukee and the like. These drills are pricey at $100+ but some such as Ridgid will come with a lifetime warranty that if anything including the battery dies all you have to do is send it back to the manufacturer and they will replace it for free.

I am surprised by the responses so far. I lost the charger for a Black and Decker Power Drill. I called the 800 number to see if I could buy a replacement charger. They sent it to me for free. I couldn't believe it.

Hi I work at a power tool retailer in The UK and although you can still buy B&D stuff here when it breaks you are better off throwing it in the trash as you can never get spare parts and it is usually cheaper to buy another tool than repair the B&D casualty.

usually they are throw away drills just like your toaster. most hardware store have in the house or a side jobber who will do the repairs and have it back to you or you can go the long way and box it up and send it back to black & decker
put a price on it=if you don't think you want to pay $50;00 to get it fixed junk it

Unless you have a very expensive professional drill, don't bother to repair it. Chuck it away and buy a new one. The answer to your question is yes, they do have repair centres.

Its not worth it sorry. I recommend paying a bit more money for a quality power drill like a BOSCH or MAKITA.

yes they do but you need to find out how much it will cost, some times it's cheaper to buy a new one
