Great Combo Kit!
Rating: 5
I bought this for my husband to do work on our boat. Cordless makes everything so much easier on a boat. Lots of power and a good little speaker too! The surprise should make up for all the work we want to do!

Stop collecting throw-away tools!
Rating: 5
I always bought mid-level tools, and kept struggling for good results. I finally broke-down and bought Dewalt, and haven't looked back, my batteries last 10x's longer, my finished results are 10x's better, and the time I save lets me spend more time enjoying the fruits of my labor INSTEAD of waiting for batteries to charge and going back to the hardware store for more materials because the tools alignment slipped out again. Last year I did not own ANY Dewalt tools, now I own 14 Dewalt 20v MAX tools, this kit was my first purchase. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Bang for your buck!
Rating: 5
I've had this kit over a year now and let me tell you, what a great investment this is! You can do so much so easily with this kit! These tools are not the top models dewalt offers but it will definitely get the job done! Radio is not to bad but it's not the best but its very nice to have! Recep. Saw is great! I've used it so much, almost on daily basis and I can't belive it's still going strong! The drill and impact are definitely built though. I've dropped them countless times and they still perform normal to my surprise! Skill saw and grinders are also great products! I can't complain besides the fact that it didnt come with more batteries and chargers for so many tools. I ended up buying 2 more 2AH 20V batteries.

Awesome Set

I've had this set for a year now and it has been amazingly handy... I've ran the circular saw and both drills all day on multiple days and they keep taking a beating.... [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Well worth the money!
Rating: 5
I do a lot of diy projects around the house and am always looking for good and reliable tools. I got this combo kit two years ago and was very happy with the performance from each and every tool in the kit. It tackles all the tasks I throw at it and some. I have since bought 5amp batteries that are a great addition when I am looking for extended run times. I love that I can buy other dewalt tools and use the same batteries.

Well rounded tool set.
Rating: 5
I just purchased this set about 3 days ago. I have used the drill, impact driver, reciprocating say and flashlight in the past. The new peices in this set are the circular saw, right angle grinder and speaker. All have been tested and run and so far work great.

Great upgrade from my Craftsman set
Rating: 5
I love these tool so far. I had an older craftsman 19.2 volt system and I got tired of replacing the batteries, they are not cheap. I saw a good deal on this kit on amazon and lowes was willing to match the price so I bought them. The circular saw is one of my favorite, it has lots of power and it has 61/2 inch blade. These tools are being used to complete a bonus room that I'm finally getting to after 14 years (kids are getting older). Great set and fair price.

Kind of disappointed
Rating: 4
I bought this second set last since the first set I bought was great with no problems. I gifted my father my first set and bought this new one. This was was September of last year or so. And I have been really busy with work . Really did not start using it until three weeks ago. I started building my deck. One of the two batteries died. I put I on the charger over night friday and started again on Saturday. It indicated full charge. Started using it can even screw two screws before it is dead. The drill itself is having problem when you lock the bit in place and losses the lock when you put it in reverse. Just disappointed. Not what I expected. Like I said my first set was great never disappointed my second set mist of been made in China.

Weak sawzall
Rating: 4
This kit was very nice, and took some abuse all but the sawzall, I used it once to cut a box spring in half and it burnt up. Other than that it's a great starter set [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Happy Mothers Day Indeed!
Rating: 5
This was my gift for mother's Day! I was so excited when I opened the package and found that it was a not only a drill but a Milwaukee hammer drill!!! I am not a professional but we are remodeling our home either to sell or to increase the property value. I have been doing all the work myself and have become quite good at it. This product has made it so much easier. and the hammer drill part I mean to be able to screw into concrete without killing myself is quite a feat thank you family for giving me the best gift ever. Looking forward to my next power tool to add to my ToolBox the M18 Sawzall! Oh and the product runs great, lightweight and 2 battery packs!

Gr8 Tool, I am a DIYER and I got the same results as my 18v
Rating: 5
Quick review : Views from an active DIYer I love the hammer drill , everything that I was able to do with my 18v tools. I got accomplished with the 12v little brothers. Having lightweight tools reduces the load and strain and is sure to add longevity to your work life. More In depth review: Hammer Drill: To switch the Drill/Drive mode you have to rotate the collar past 16, there are rubber molding by the hammer icon on the sides I initially thought that was how you switch the modes, by pressing it. That was not the case. For my needs the Hammer drill worked well. I used it with landscape timber, 2x and I had no problems at all. You can adjust the torque settings and when it reaches its maximum torque you can hear it powering down and it stop altogether. You have to release the trigger and press it again if you want to continue. This is good to ensure you do not over tighten a screw

Gr8 tool, did not feel weak at all

Quick review : Views from an active DIYer I love the hammer drill everything that I was able to do with my 18v tools. I got accomplished with the 12v little brother. Charge time right out of the box with the included charger was pretty long, 1/2hr for the 2.0ah and 1hr for the 4.0ah. Having lightweight tools reduces the load and strain and is sure to add longevity to your work life. More In depth review: I used this for a few projects I had , I used it with a pocket hole jig, T-Star bits and regular bits. The drill worked fine. Every thing that I was able to do with 18v tools was able to do with these also. I got this because of the expansive M12 line and there are a lot of tools I am interested in. The batteries do not have a fuel gauge but the drill and impact driver did. Once you press the trigger the fuel gauge will stay on for 2 seconds. The LED light stays on for 10 seconds after the trigger is depressed. I found the light to be bright enough to light my work area. This comes with the belt clip attached on the left side but you can remove it and place it on the right side if you are a lefty. To switch the Drill/Drive mode you have to rotate the collar past 16, there are rubber molding by the hammer icon on the sides I initially thought that was how you switch the modes, by pressing it. That was not the case. For my needs the Hammer drill worked well. I used it with landscape timber, 2x and I had no problems at all.

great tool, but it's got some draw backs
Rating: 4
I'm in general aviation so I prefer a high rpm, good trigger modulation and light weight/compact. I love this drill, however if you plan to use this drill for a lot of low torque fasteners as I do then you'll find the electronic clutch inferior to a mechanical one and the slow start at lower clutch settings extremely annoying. Also the chuck will spin the whole drive train before you can get a proper clamping force on the bit. Again I'm I general aviation so 90% of the work I ask this drill is a 1/8th inch drill bit in 2117-T4 aluminum. For my work it's great when you have a lot of rivets to drill as I frequently do. But any work that you rely on the clutch, get the older model with a mechanical clutch. I use a bosh ps22 for inspection panel fasteners and the Milwaukee for drilling rivets on all the sheet metal repairs that as an employee of a flight, school is often.

This is a good drill.
Rating: 4
So I work in construction. I have 2 battery hammer drills. This and an old 18v xrp. Now obviously the xrp is more powerful, but this 12v is lightweight, compact, easy to use, and is faster at small 5/36 drilling. I like this drill. The belt clip works better than the old design, and is now my go to drill. But I do have a complaint. The exhaust ports are in the worst spot. With long term drilling there isn't a place to hold it with my other hand without getting burned.

Hmmmm ?

No doubt a great drill but in hard working apps such as brand new sharp drill bits drill in steel and get caught up it stops making it very hard and longer to push the bit through. Good luck
