That drill costs like $25 bucks sooooooooo

Doesn't mean shit. I got a $25 powered no name screw driver and I use it every time I gotta grab a screwdriver. For years. No issues with it.

Sadly most things are made to just die after a year and go into a landfill.

Meh, I'd still give it a shot to look into fixing it.

At the very least as a learning exercise.

I'm a fan of fixing things and preventing stuff from finding their way into landfills when ever possible.

I’ve watched a tear down of one of these before, and actually just rewatched it and the brushes aren’t replaceable

Ah the lovely disposable tools, how I hate these so much.

Thank you for the info.
