Will not be disappointed
Rating: 5
Have 2 of these (4 compacts as well) in the shop. One is 6 years old and the other is 5 years old. Have been used indoor, outdoor, hot temps and freezing temps. In a manufacturing setting as well as on the mining job sites they've never let us down. Very happy with these drills and the abuse they take. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I've owned this drill for about 8 years now. Never had a problem. Even when dropping it off a ladder or using in the rain. Very dependable. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I use this drill at work 10 plus hours a day, and also have one at home, this is the very best drill/driver I've ever had, and hopefully ever need, scooping up another one as we speak for back up. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Can't beat for price
Rating: 5
Nothing will beat a corded hammer drill but this Dewalt, for price paid, is just about all you need. It's three speed and and all metal chuck are a nice change from the (becoming more common) plastic chucks. It provides power when needed (coupled with the 8AH battery) and can take a good beating. I am not a professional but do use my Dewalt drills for a lot of around the house and "can you help me with this" tasks. The drill is on the heavier side but is not a complaint from me for price paid and product given. Would buy again! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

This hammer drill impressed me the first time I used it. Still does a year later. I absolutely love this drill. All the power you need to get through the toughest of jobs.

Best hammer drill on the market period.
Rating: 5
I’ve owned several brands of power tools and dewalt is by far the best one out there. My tools are my money makers and nothing even comes close to the quality and dependability of dewalt. They’ve been left out in the rain, frozen solid, fallen off roofs and out of scissor lifts, dropped in puddles of mud and in the dirt and they still come to life every time I pull the trigger. Don’t settle for anything else. Buy the best, buy dewalt [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Last drill you will ever need!
Rating: 5
Very satisfied with all my 20v tools. I use this my drill almost everyday and even though it no longer looks pretty, the performance is! Never really had a dewalt tool I wasn’t satisfied with. I’m not a brand loyal type of guy but when I’m ever in doubt, or choosing between brands I’ll go with dewalt. There comes a point in time when you realize it’s not worth it to cheap out....

Great Product

I purchased this produce a few weeks back. I have not used it yet, however, when building a deck on the back of my house, I borrowed this same drill to use for securing the decking planks. It worked beautifully and I decided I had to have one in my tool collection.

Great Corded Drill
Rating: 5
I bought this drill a few weeks ago to have in my arsenal in addition to my cordless set of drills for drilling in tougher situations and mixing concrete in 5Gal buckets. It mixed like a dream, got pretty hot as to be expected. The secondary handle makes mixing a dream, and the 10 volts proved helpful over my coworkers older, lower voltage, corded drill. I also used it for drilling some 3/4" holes through a trippled up 2x12 beam and it went through super easy. As it is a more powerful drill it is a bit heavier than the lower voltage drills, but the secondary handle offsets the weight, and I find anytime I'm using a drill for this much power I'm rarely using it one handed anyways. The secondary handle is designed really well, easy to adjust and its locking mechanism is solid. Additionally, as it is more powerful than other drills, it is also more expensive, but I find it worth the money if you need the extra power. Good drill, good design. Almost went with the hammer drill version of this drill (DWD520) but between this drill and my rotary hammer, I found that unnecessary and worth saving the money. The build of the drill seems tough so far and I expect it to last me many years.

Excellent 1/2” drill

I bought this drill in February to use to wire brush some old beams. The drills handle was helpful when I was brushing the beam. It has also been excellent for drilling wholes in concrete. Impressed with the quality of the tool. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
