Nice Quality
Rating: 5
I bought this for use with smaller drill bits. My regular drill I've had for years just can't grip bits down to 1/16". This one will go even smaller. This is really a quality drill. Fit & finish is good with a quality feel. I actually prefer the old keyed chucks because they simply hold bits tighter. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

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
Rating: 5
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.]

Powerful drill
Rating: 5
I've owned this drill for about 6 months. I use it for drilling holes due to its key chuck it can really grip the drill bits. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
