DeWalt 18 volt cordless,
January 21, 2008
By Lewtshopfrom Cleveland, Oh area
"I'm an electrician and have owned sever different brands of cordless drills. The DeWalt cordless is far superior. It is rugged, dependable and user friendly. The tourque is excellent. What I especially like about the DeWalt cordless is the gripping power of the chuck and the ease of tool changing. With most of the other brands I have owned, the tool in the chuck would slip under load and you have to back off, re-tighten the chuck and hope you woul make it through this time. I have never had that problem with the DeWalt cordless chucks. It is an excellent on the job tool."

DeWalt 18v drill criver cordless.,
April 24, 2008
By 24lockfrom Whidbay Island, WA
"I have owned one of the DeWalt products for several years. It has been highly used and almost abused and still ready fro more. I like the weight, balance, and the battery's ability to last a long time. The keyless chuck is absolutely essential for changing bits for the job. The yellow color makes it highly visible so you don't happen to forget it. I would recomment this to anyone over something comparable."

Outstanding Kit,
April 22, 2008
By bobtheflyfisherfrom CA
"Torque, power, and battery life are outstanding. Driving long screws into large stock is a breeze. Having a second battery is a must in today's world of work. The ability to quickly charge batteries is a plus. The overall quality is excellent. Power is consistently, and evenly delivered, through to the end of charge life. Holding power is very good and the chuck works flawlessly when changing bits. We could expect nothing else from DeWalt.......super product."

By I102bsfrom Centralia, WA
"I use this drill on a daily basis at times, It is rugged, has a good balance and the battery lasts well for most jobs. If you are thinking about a sawzall the Dewalt battery that this drill shares is far superior to the millwaukee and won't shake loose as the millwaukee does."

Finally a drill that works as hard as you,
April 22, 2008
By Anonymous Reviewerfrom Emporia, Kansas
"To start with I use the drill alot doing electrical work, and I honestly can't think of a negative. The torque is great, but my favorite is that when under the pressure there is no slippage in the chuck. If you use a drill alot, you know how frustring this can be. Having to stop and retighten the chuck alot is a big pain. With this drill however that never enters my mind now. The battery life is above average, but when it dies it dies. I am also less fearful of droping it. Although you don't want to drop any tools off a ladder, this one is rugged in construction. It will take what you can dish out. I would buy with confidence again. It's a small price to pay for a quality drill."

April 21, 2008
By cmax700from Charlotte, Nc
"This is my second Dewalt, the first was 14.4 volt and used daily for two years. I like the added power the 18 volt has, also that it's light weight. Use it to remove screws on equipment I work on. Batteries last long time. Also like the strong case it came in, very convenient."

DeWalt hits a homerun,
April 21, 2008
By Douglas411from Dayton, Ohio
"DeWalt has brought togeather a mix of power, capacity, and battery life in their 18 volt 1/2 inch chuck cordless drill. With the power to drive deck screw after deck screw this cordless will not disappoint. A 1/2 inch chuck means you can pick a wide range of bits to fit your needs. With 2 batteries one can charge while the other is in use with power to spare. The only thing I disliked was the fact I didn't replace my Craftsman cordless sooner."

Great product,
April 21, 2008
By Fenderbenderfrom West Monroe La.
"I have used cordless drils for about 12 years. I always used Makita brand drills. Then one day my son found a Dewalt drill in a trash dumpster that would only run one direction.(It would not go in reverse) I took it apart and found a loose conection fixed it and that used drill quickly became my favorite drill. The battery would last a long time and the drill had a lot of torque. I soon bought two more Dewalt drills and have used them about two years with flawless performance. I use my drills daily and love how long the batterys last between charges. I also have a flashlite that came with one of the drill kits and I don't leave home without it. You can not go wrong buying Dewalt products."

Great tool,
April 21, 2008
By bob1234from Massachusetts
"I bought this tool when building my house. I've used it to drill anything from 1/4" to 2" holes. I drill all the holes to put in my radiant heat which were all 1 1/2' in. Probably 300 holes and it worked great. Could drill 42 hole on a single charge through 2x12 joists. Highly recommend. Dual batteries are nice and it would be tough to kill one battary before the other is fully charged."
