DeWalt tools are a second-tier product at this point. I recently needed to replace a trigger on a DeWalt 18v drill and the cost was $67.00 just for the trigger, which is three times higher than it should be. I purchased two of these drills and the chuck on one of them has already failed in less than six months. I had to take apart a small Bosch grinder to change out the brushes and the quality was unbelievably obvious compared to a DeWalt grinder I took apart recently. On the contrary, my Milwaukee and Bosch tools have functioned wonderfully even in the face of heavy constant use. Failure rates are simply too high and parts cost are unreasonable.
I purchased this to replace a similar drill, which I wore out after about 5 years of use. Excellent service from Amazon, as usual. Product was shipped quickly. It is an excellent drill.
I've had this drill for about a year and a half now and can't say enough about it. It has handled everything I have given it and doesn't quit. It a little loud compared it's competitors, But I love it the way it is, after all it's a "power" tool. Before buying I shopped at Home Depot and Lowes just to get a feel for the weight, balance, and grip comfort and I can say this drill is tops.
It's the best feature. Great power, 3 speeds, locks when you stop. It makes bit changes a snap. We have a lot of drills on the job. These always get used first. The old one still works but it has been patched together a few times. I am buying this to replace one that has been dropped from 15' repeatedly. The way it stops when you release the trigger is great.
excellent replacement drill. Shipped quick, nuf said. Nice to be able to get what you need without buying it all. Didn't need case, charger, batteries.
