Do they work well?
Do they last?
Are they worth the money?

My uncle is a professional boat / car mechanic and he swears by his Snap-On cordless impact.

yes
I got this one for Christmas 2 years ago and I use it to rotate all 3 cars regular. I think it was 49.00 they gave me the receipt in case it did not work. It came with a 15 ft cord, adapter for ether battery or lighter,4 different sockets and an extension. we have only changed 2 tires on the trails but it was worth it.

My Snap On cordless has worked for 6 years and counting. About 55 ft lbs is the max, it was advertised as 60 ft lbs, but I'm impatient. If it takes a long time pounding to get there I just grab a wrench to finish.

I had a 18 volt snap-on cordless(240 ft lbs max torque) lasted 5 years but the second deployment overseas the sand finally did it in,now I have a milwakkee(sorry can't spell)28 volt and love it(something like 320 ft lbs of torque).The batteries last a long time to,but at $479.00 it is a little pricy but well worth it.
