Bosch Cordless Screwdriver IXO (6th Generation, green, variable SPEED CONTROL, rechargeable with micro USB-cable, in storage case), Ixo Basic, 6th Gen

Product Information

We've used Bosch's sixth-generation IXO extensively and have found it to be a reliable and convenient companion for a variety of household tasks. Make sure you know what screw heads the driver will come with since that could leave you scuppered if it's not quite the selection you were expecting, and having a good sense of its power levels will help to avoid any burnouts with screws that are just too tight for it to extract (which should be rare!

Thanks to a range of practical adapters, you can turn it into a drill, a corkscrew or even a spice mill. With eight angle settings and easy handling, it transforms the Bosch IXO screwdrivers, providing flexibility and access for any DIY project, making the impossible, possible. It was first put to the test by assembling a flatpack wardrobe to showcase its long-term comfort and battery life.Taken out of the box, I do like the fact the IXO 6 looks a lot more rounded and smooth compared to the angular IXO V and the Bosch logo is a more reasonable size. Ah lithium-ion battery in the IXO delivers longer runtime for up to 190 screws per charge, avoiding unnecessary recharging interruptions and work disruptions. Bosch IXO 6 looks like a child's drawing of a gun and comes in any colour you like, so long as it's green.

Well, there's good news here - more tools than you might think can now be reliably motorised to take a load off your back, including a wide range of excellent electric screwdrivers. Its unique off-set screw unit allows for a full flexibility and access in difficult spaces, and carefully tightens screws that are close to edges without damaging the work surface or screw heads.

The maximum speed of the motor isn’t the fastest in its class at just 215 rpm with no bit installed. The trigger itself is a bit on the long side, thus I use two fingers with it rather than one which feels a bit unnatural, but has a slight lag when first starting off which is noticeable. Heading towards the tail-end of the year, sometimes I can’t help but spoil myself with a few presents (to myself, of course). The IXO is much more than an electric screwdriver, and this is the key selling point that sets it apart from the competition. Gentle on small screws and plastic parts or softwood, it is ideal for small assembly tasks such as model making or working on computer parts.The range of accessories makes the IXO 6 into a bit of an electric Swiss-army knife, but you do start to question whether everything is genuinely useful.
