5.0 out of 5 stars Worth every dollar, October 24, 2005

Excellent power and battery life. Great for renovation works. The drill alone costs more than the kit. I paid $242.00 US at Amazon.com for the kit. Probably two much power for the average home use unless you are constantly doing renovation. If you are a handy person, you will appreciate the power and long battery life. You won't regret it if you buy it.

I bought this kit mainly for the cutoff grinder tool. I have been using the cutoff tool as a grinder and it works great. This is for a field application were I needed cordless and this has lived up to my expectations. The battery life is good, the wieght and feel of the tool is great, and it is easy to use. Power for a cordless 4 1/2" grinder is excellent, you can lean pretty hard on it before it stalls, but remember it is cordless. The drill works well however I havn't used it enough to comment. Dewalt cordless tools are not cheap, however a good value. The reason for 4 not 5 stars is I want to see how long it lasts.

I have never stopped using this baby. I buffed out a headlight lens using the veriable speed in low and it provided plenty of control as a drill it is excellant. I always drain the batteries and have been very pleased with the storage and the recharge time.
