As I mentioned before, I'd like to find DH some thing for Christmas, and I've been thinking "cordless drill".  I found this one online at Sears, but don't know if it would be powerful enough for 'round the house stuff and don't know if the price is reasonable

(if the link doesn't work, it's a 9.6V Craftsman for $50)

I just asked my DH about it and he said that it would be fine for basics around the house, but if your husband does any kind of hobby building or anything then you'd probably want one more powerful. He said that price sounded pretty good too, but that you should go online and search for reviews just to be sure it's a good one!
HTH!

If this is just for small jobs around the house it should be OK. If he will be doing bigger jobs like putting together a wood play ground it's not strong enough.
