I got this specifically to drill holes in framing to run electrical for a renovation on my house. It worked very well. I have also found other good uses for other parts of the renovation where there were some tight spots.

Works better as a drill than a screw driver, but it you watch the speed it can work for that.

I am satisfied with my purchase. Did exactly what I wanted.

I wanted one of these for a while to get into those tight spaces my drill driver wont go. It works great for that purpose. It wont be my most used tool for drilling or driving because the reverse button is harder to get to than my drill driver. That was the only thing that slowed me down. I also had a little trouble putting as much pressure on the screws. The bit poped out of the screw head very easy. This is a super strong tool and does the job like the 18v drill driver. Another good tool by Dewalt.

you can't buy drill w/o batteries in store and thats the way i needed it considering i already own 4 batteries

A little on the heavy side and the reverse switch location is kind of awkward, but it has 2 speeds and its powerful enough.

This is an exellent product. It is now discontinued for a more expensive unit. Unless you want the latest or need a more powerful unit, this will serve the purpose and should last a long time if taken care of.

This drill seems a little heavy at first. My corded Milwaukee right angle is lighter in comparison. But this drill makes up for it in torque and battery life. I recently used it to assemble a couple of christmas gifts that seemed to have a couple million screws and bolts. I'm sure I would have spent many more hours doing the same job by hand. For all its weight it does balance well, and the weight helps quite a bit when torqueing down a larger nut or bolt. The battery pack will get in the way of drilling or screwing on flat surfaces unless you use a long bit. The "variable" speed is controlled by the trigger and takes a little practice to control consistantly. The drill seems very solidly constructed and I anticipate it lasting many years. I recommend this one.

Just received my Dewalt Right Angle Drill after reading the reviews listed here & after having had placed a call to get some specific questions answered and like clockwork it arrived and I am toughly wowed.

It arrived as advertised, it arrived on time, and best of all it was affordable.

If you need to work in tight places and already use the Dewalt 18 volt cordless tool system, this is the first 'extra' to get. When a regular drill/driver is too long this will get you in tight and has plenty of power is easy for one hand operation, including reversing direction.

I love my Dewalt collection of cordless tools, and this drill is no exception. I've had no problems with it whatsoever. (Come to think of it, I've never had a problem with anything Dewalt, except one of my 8 batteries doesn't seem to hold a charge as long as the others.) I couldn't have built my entryway shoe cabinet without it. Plenty of power and it's fairly ergonomic. The only possible thing I can think of to complain about is that the reverse switch is a little awkward to get to. If you come up against tight spaces in your drilling or screwing jobs, you'll love what this drill can do for you. I don't see anyone being disappointed with this purchase.

A good tool to complement the 18 volt cordless suite, now with lithium batteries. The short 90 degree head allows it to drill in tight places, such as between the joists.
