5.0 out of 5 stars just the right size
I'm a carpenter - visited many job sites and worked with lots of other guy's tools too. This size seems to be the best for hauling up and down ladders - in/out basements,crawlspaces, attics....some of the bigger ones get too big!

1.0 out of 5 stars Does this item exist?
I ordered this Item in Augest and like clockwork I have recieved messages saying it will be delayed 1-2 weeks. It is now November and no tool kit. The Item avalibility is listed at 2-3 days, I DON'T THINK SO. Go to a store where you can walk out the door with it, I am.

This review is from: DEWALT DW983KS-2 14.4 Volt XRP 1/2-Inch Cordless Drill/Driver and 5-3/8-Inch Saw Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
Had a lot of trouble finding a combo kit that was reasonably priced. I got it the week of Christmas and they were going very fast.

I have a lot of tools (tool junkie)and these are well made. Charger worked faster than advertised. As is almost always the case, I will probably buy a better blade. I would imagine a thin kerf blade would do wonders. Even so, it works extremely well as is. Would not hesitate to buy again.

I purchased this product after using a friends combo kit. I love the new updates to the drill and feel it makes it a much better product because of the flexibility it now offers. The saw was the big selling point because of its weight and cutting depth. I was also very impressed with the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect !!!! works like a charm, September 24, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: DEWALT DW983KS-2 14.4 Volt XRP 1/2-Inch Cordless Drill/Driver and 5-3/8-Inch Saw Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
this is a great drill / saw set. I've had mine for 7 years... just retired the set to upgrade to the 18v.

The 14.4v has amazing power, but the new 18v lithium had to take over.... the 14.4v for the money, you couldn't beat. Plus the cordless saw was amazing!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Priced right-great value, March 6, 2003
This review is from: DEWALT DW983KS-2 14.4 Volt XRP 1/2-Inch Cordless Drill/Driver and 5-3/8-Inch Saw Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)
I bought this kit to complete a project for my grand-daughter. I really just needed the saw, but the combo price was too good to miss, besides, who doesn't need another cordless drill? The only negative comment I have is that when I cut just a couple of 4x8' sheets of plywood (ripping 8') the battery on the saw needs a boost. Otherwise the saw is light to handle, durable for the job and the blade holds up a very long time. I prefer carbide for all my cutting tools. This combo kit is a great value.

1.0 out of 5 stars Where is it? Still waiting....., January 21, 2002

Well, I too have waited 3 weeks now to get shipment of my order. They keep telling me it is delayed and it is now delayed another week out. I wish that they could at least update their website with an estimated shipping date when you purchase the product. Instead, shipment was estimated at 2-3 days when I purchased the product. They don't want to scare you away from that initial purchase - noooo. But in the end, that business practice will make your customers MUCH more irate than just telling them up front that they'll have to wait for the order. It's made me mad!! Still waiting....
