Review Geek - Why You Should Own an Impact Wrench

November 30, 2022

There are certain tools everyone should own, like a hammer, a drill, and an impact wrench. You might think that last one was a typo, but it’s not. “But Josh, surely you mean an impact driver!” No, although that’s another great tool you should have.

No, if you don’t already have one, Cory is here to make the case that you should buy an impact wrench right now. It’s a similar concept to an impact driver, but once you know the difference, you’ll understand why it’s such a great tool. Hit up the top story to find out more.

On a side now, while I have your attention: I’d be remiss if I didn’t let you know about a giveaway our sister site, How-To Geek, is running. How does a free iPhone 14 pro case sound? Good? Then hit up the giveaway. And if you’re thinking, “I want a case but never win anything,” there’s also a really good discount on those cases too.

Other Highlights:

• Samsung might make repairing your own smartwatch possible soon!
• Apple says these are the best apps you should download.
• Alexa can now create brand-new animated stories for your kids to watch. Neat.
• … and more!
