5.0 out of 5 stars Great drill, December 21, 2007
By Joel Otto (Lander, Wyoming) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
We have a lot of drills on the job. These always get used first. Great power, 3 speeds, locks when you stop. The way it stops when you release the trigger is great. It makes bit changes a snap. It's the best feature. I am buying this to replace one that has been dropped from 15' repeatedly. The old one still works but it has been patched together a few times.

2.0 out of 5 stars DeWalt - not the best tools, January 6, 2009
By Timothy Mott (Bluefields, Nicaragua) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I purchased two of these drills and the chuck on one of them has already failed in less than six months. DeWalt tools are a second-tier product at this point. Failure rates are simply too high and parts cost are unreasonable. I recently needed to replace a trigger on a DeWalt 18v drill and the cost was $67.00 just for the trigger, which is three times higher than it should be. On the contrary, my Milwaukee and Bosch tools have functioned wonderfully even in the face of heavy constant use. I had to take apart a small Bosch grinder to change out the brushes and the quality was unbelievably obvious compared to a DeWalt grinder I took apart recently.

Update . . . I took the drill back to the US and a DeWalt warranty center repaired it at no charge, but I found out that you cannot just replace the chuck when it fails. You have to replace the entire cone assembly that includes the clutch, speed gears and everything. Moral of the story: Take care of that chuck, keep it lubed because you cannot afford to replace it.
