  • Buy it and use it carefully. You will not regret it. It beats every other competitor for the price and utility, hands down.
  • Nice drill, works just great and is just the size I need.
  • I have used it for several months on a number of projects. So far I have been completely satisfied.
  • This system has been a lifesaver, as I've done some work in new builds, installing cabinet drawer slides, drawer & door handles, knobs, etc.
  • The drill was easy to handle, the tension was easy to adjust, the batteries lasted a good length of time and were easy to change/recharge. Very happy with the purchase.
  • I beat the heck out of this drill, I actually had it smoking once because I got a 3" hole saw jammed. I couldn't believe that after it cooled down it was still cranking away. Love it!
  • I am a contractor and use my tools hard. I have found this particular drill driver to be exceptionally good.
  • I have dropped 2 stories, beaten on nails, cracked the case open and worked the heck out of them and they still work. No comparison to other drills I have had.
  • So if you are considering a good quality drill at a very reasonable price and one that you will probably never have to replace, look no further.
  • If you want a tool and not a toy, you have to pay a few extra bucks. This is an awesome tool. Best one I have ever owned.
  • this Makita is my husband's favorite tool of all time. He uses it for all sorts of projects around the house and has found it to have plenty of power.
  • I tend to drop my tools a lot, and this drill doesn't seem to care. I have weak hands, but I find it light enough to use for a while without feeling fatigued, and the trigger is easy to pull.
  • Makita, in my opinion makes some of the best power tools around and this drill is no different. It is one of the most well-balanced cordless drills I have ever used
  • This is a solid unit in typical Makita form. The NMH batteries are superior to Ni Cad batteries and a main selling feature to me.
  • The drill has performed beyond all my expectations
  • I just can't give up on this awsome drill! So, now i'm babying my fourth one. Be very careful how you switch back and forth between hi and low speed.
  • Makita's 14.4 Volt Cordless Drill delivers long term power with excellent torque in a variable speed tool.
  • This is a quality product. Ergonomics, weight, and power make it useful for just about every job around the house or shop.
