3.0 out of 5 stars A bit overrated...., March 7, 2009

This review is from: DEWALT DC720KA Heavy-Duty Cordless 18-Volt Compact Drill/Driver (Tools & Hardware)

I'm a contractor and our company specializes in erecting condos so we are more than familiar with our power tools. When I first started my job I invested in this DeWalt drill since EVERYONE has one. After using it for a while I feel that it is not all that it is hopped up to be, the battery life sucks and I had to replace the battery after a couple months because it stopped holding its charge. After trying out others I would recommend Makita for the price and performance, also do stay away from Ryobi that brand of power tools is a joke (I would get it for my learning teen but not for professional use).

This drill is exactly what I was looking for, small, relatively light, and has lots of power. The light onthe front is a great feature and the one handed chuck is great. It also uses my 18v XBR batteries as well...a nice feature if you are going to take it out somewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Little Powerhouse Drill, July 4, 2008

While I'm not a tradesman, I do a lot os DIY rojects and the old cordless was dying, so I baought this unit. It came with two batteries, which meant aI didn't have to buy the second right away. It's more versatile than the old one, especially because it's a ½-inch drill, so I can use the larger bits I couldn't on the old unit. The other advantage with this drill is the size: I can get at things in tighter quarters (like in shelf spaces) to drill and drive screws. Just couldn't do that with the bigger or corded drills.
