This is an EXCELLENT drill... good battery life, nice torque, good construction... you can't go wrong.
I have always been a Dewalt guy, but when this came out awhile back I decided to try it. I've owned it for about a year and a half now and have been absolutely pleased with it.
This thing is a workhorse. Light and powerful. Great Drill.
They might say it's 18V but it has the power of a 14.4V at best. Batteries don't last very long.
I love this drill! It is much smaller and lighter all of the other 18 volt and even 14.4 volt drills I have owned, yet it has all the power of a full size drill.
The quality and price are hard to beat. It's an excellent product from a quality tool manufacturer.
Overall, very, very satisfied with the drill set.
So far, I'm impressed with the quality and the power. The battery is small and has a fast recharge. I was concerned about battery charge life, but it seems OK.
I would recommend this drill to anyone who needs a great tool!!!
Underpowered!, batteries, led light (not very bright, and does not shine where it needs to), made in China, non metal chuck.
I've had this drill for about six months and it's solid.
I recommend this product for everybody.
I have been using the drill for several weeks drilling and driving screws and it performs as expected.
Fantastic! A really solid machine that you can't go wrong buying. I'll certainly be buying Milwaukee again.
