The only negative is the blue rubber thingy tends to get pushed off in tight spots and I'm sure it will eventually get lost or ruined. The Kobalt (Lowes) is the same as this Bosch - but for half the price. It's a very handy thing to have if you need to drive various kinds of fasteners.
The only difference between the 2 brands, in case you are trying to compare, is that the Bosch seems to unlock the bit in a more logical way, maybe samewhat easier. They both work great, once you try it, you will not want to go back locking and unlocking chuck on your drill every time you need to change the bit. However, they are both quality accessories, and once you own it, you will get used to the operation and will not notice any major difference. I have 2 quick change chucks, one from Dewalt and this one from Bosch. I keep one in each of my 2 drills.
It works well with a regular chuck drill, and is a breeze changing bits. I bought the Pocket Driver from Bosch, and you can see that this set is paired with that particular product. Check for compatibility with your type of drill before purchasing. It is just a tug and snap to change bits and that makes every job easier when you don't have to loosen/tighten the chuck with each change. So I bought this set to go along with my new pocket drill. I may be not seeing how they go together, but the chuck stem does not fit in the pocket driver head.
I am buying another one for use on an older, keyed-chucked drill.With some looking around, you can find drill bits that work with the chuck to increase its usefulness and convenience. A well-built, compact, and easy to use bit exchange chuck. I especially like the use of rubber on the area where you pull to release the bits.
Even if it did fit the pocket driver, why would you need an add-on "Clic-Change" chuck for a device that has a "Clic-Change" chuck already built into it. Obviously he didn't read the description closely, as this is not a drill bit chuck. My issue is with Amazon suggesting this product as a companion to the pocket driver. As mentioned by others, Amazon recommends you buy this product along with the Bosch 10.8 volt pocket driver. In this case, Amazon needed to do a better job knowing what it was recommending to its customers. My teenage son bought me the pocket driver and the chuck for Christmas. As also was stated, this chuck is not compatible with the pocket driver. He thought the chuck was actually a drill bit chuck, which would allow me to use the pocket driver as a cordless drill.
