Bosch Professional Screwdriver Bosch GO 3 (incl. 8pcs bit Set, bit Holder, USB-C Cable, Mini Case)

I was dubious about spending so much on a screwdriver and had almost bought one about a quarter of the price, but I’m really glad I chose this one. It comes in a nice little tough plastic box that looks as if it would survive some tough treatment. I thought the “Professional” name was one of those things where everything is called “Pro” and it just means that there’s a slight quality bump. How wrong I was. I have a power drill with a bunch of different bits and claims to be a screwdriver but it’s just too big and unwieldy for anything useful. This however was very useful in building a flatpack cupboard. I was used to the quality level of my cheap drill and bits which would round themselves off or ruin screw heads however the bits that came (in the natty little holder) with the screwdriver seem to be made of much harder stuff and a more accurate fit. There was no slippage. I like the built in clutch so it doesn’t overtighten and split wood/ruin the screw or the bits. That’s a very nice touch. The instant brake when you stop is fantastic. I like the choice of pressing the button (which is in a slightly odd position) or just pushing down on the screw to make it work. I did wonder about the lack of a speed control, but the screwdriver seems to have the speed sorted all by itself. It has two built-in LED lights which are helpful in a darker space. They flash whilst it’s charging and go solid when it has finished. They come on when you’re screwing/unscrewing. I have two small comments which are really just nitpicking: the LEDs are nice and bright but they leave a dark patch right where the driver meets the screw. Also they sometimes switch off when you still need them. They could stay on just a second or so longer. As I said, those are just minor nitpicking and not an issue. It’s very easy to use and just makes sense. The battery lasted the whole time I was using it to build the cupboard. When I plugged it back in to charge afterwards it had clearly only used a tiny amount of the battery. I went online to sign up for the extended warranty and the Bosch website identified the model number as a professional tool so it directed me to their professional site. Not an issue but it reminded me that this is clearly a tool for tradespeople. In summary, I was dubious about spending all the money I did on this one just when I was going for the famous and trusted name. However I’m glad I did. It’s clearly great quality and reliable kit. I know that I won’t have to replace it in a year or so. I’ve bought one slightly more expensive tool instead of buying several cheaper ones. This will save me money in the long-run. Therefore this is excellent value for money.

What it actually is: A compact, USB-C rechargeable professional-grade electric screwdriver with adjustable torque and a push-to-start action built into the body. Solid choice for furniture builds, fixing stuff, cabinets, small jobs — not a full-on drill driver. ________________________________________ 🔎 Key Stuff You Should Know 👍 What’s Good • Power + control: Up to ~5 Nm torque with multiple settings, so it’s not a weak toy — it’ll handle most light-medium screw jobs without complaining. • Dual activation: Start it by pushing the tip into the screw or by pressing the power button — neat feature for repetitive jobs. • USB-C charging: No weird Bosch charger needed; you can juice it up from a phone brick, laptop, power bank, whatever. • LED ring: Lights up your work area and doubles as a battery indicator — small detail, big convenience. • Ergonomic + lightweight: Doesn’t kill your wrist in awkward spots. 👎 Downsides (Keep It Real) • Battery is built-in: You can’t hot-swap a spare battery, so if it drops to zero you’re waiting around. Plenty of folks notice this. • Not for heavy duty: This isn’t a drill-driver. For big screws into dense timber or anything structural, you’ll wanna reach for a 12 V/18 V Bosch drill. • Push-to-start can be annoying: Some users accidentally trigger it in awkward grips — others love it. It’s kinda you whether it suits your style. • Torque & speed are fixed: No variable speed trigger like proper drills have; it’s only got the mechanical clutch settings. 💭 Real User Vibes • Generally comfy and “well built” feels, battery lasts decent for light stuff, and quality seems better than cheap electric screwdrivers. • Some say battery life drops after heavy use over many months — classic trade-off with integrated cells. • Pick up from trusted sellers — there are fake Bosch Go lines floating around on marketplaces. • 🛠 Bottom Line • Good for: everyday household tasks, flatpack builds, light repairs, electricians/techs for repetitive screws. Not great for: variable speed control, big timber work, or jobs where you’d rather pull out a proper drill. • If you want something reliable and small without faffing with batteries and chargers, it’s a pretty solid choice. If you need power and flexibility, step up to a 12 V/18 V drill-driver.

The good: Tool itself is good quality. Comes in a nice carrying box with some decent commonly used bits. It can be set to low torques for delicate work. The bad: The bit extender is cheap, nasty and crooked. Bosch could have provided a good quality one with an expensive pro tool. There's only one speed so you can't slow things down when you need to which is annoying. The battery can't be replaced. All in all it's a good tool that mostly works well. It's expensive so it's not a value for money item in the short term but hopefully it will last a long time.

Extremely well manufactured as expected, feels quality in the hand and in use. Does exactley what it says on the tin and does it extremely well. Overall good bit of kit, enough power, easy to use, has the right functions, good value for money, you get what you pay for.

this screwdriver is good to have in your tool bag, good run time , built in light is good, charging is quiet fast.bit set is usefull to have built in to the case.

Excellent auto screwdriver, mainly use on door furniture handles and so on. Doesn’t bur the screw head and is small and powerful enough to use . Saves a lot of time.

This has quickly become one of my favourite tools in my tool box. Sturdy and long lasting, worked all day before charging and the LED light is a real bonus when working in tight, dark corners. Highly recommended.

Honestly, it's fantastic almost perfect. Great built and size except for the forward and reverse button makes it somewhat two hand operated.
