  • Drill is great just enough power and not heavy and charges battery in less than 1 hr. great product glad i spent the extra money.
  • Tried it to see how it handled and feels and looks great....Great buy after comparison shopping
  • Great deal. Price and quality are good. I have used it several times and I am quite satisfied with it's performance.
  • I'm very happy with this drill.
  • I think that this tool is perfect !
  • Indispensable home tool
  • Do the math. The bats are $46.xx ea, the charger is @ $60.xx, the drill is a reasonably good unit, if you need replacement bats buy this kit.
  • Does the job for most household repairs and bigger projects as well. Lightweight and with two batteries, a great deal
  • It has more guts than most 18v cheapy drills and is probably much better manufactured as well.
  • I am so pleased with this Makita cordless drill. Love it, love it, love it.
  • This is a great light weight drill with plenty of power.
