5.0 out of 5 stars ALOT FOR THE MONEY
This is a bargain. You get the drill, two batteries, a charging unit, a case, a built in bit holder with long phillips bit, a small plastic case with 10(or so) bits and the flashlight(adjustable head). This drill has some heft and feels good in the hand. It is well balanced. All the items fit easily into the case. The case has a built in pocket where the instruction...

1.0 out of 5 stars not a good drill
The drill I received was not the one pictured. It also did not work. The forward/reverse/off switch was broken. I returned it. Even if the switch had worked, I was not happy with the quality of the drill. It looked cheap.

5.0 out of 5 stars ALOT FOR THE MONEY, June 9, 2004
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Factory-Reconditioned Hitachi DS14DVF2R 14.4V Cordless Drill Kit w/Flashlight (Tools & Home Improvement)
This is a bargain. You get the drill, two batteries, a charging unit, a case, a built in bit holder with long phillips bit, a small plastic case with 10(or so) bits and the flashlight(adjustable head). This drill has some heft and feels good in the hand. It is well balanced. All the items fit easily into the case. The case has a built in pocket where the instruction fit. This is nice because many times the instructions get in the way when you are trying to close the case. Each battery took about 45 minutes to charge. The other reviewer is right. This drill is not the same as the photo. It is missing the cushioning on the handle.

The only problem I had was that the chuck was jammed open. I had to wrench it free with a couple of pliers.

The tool I received is not the tool pictured in the sale add.
Mine does not have any of the cushioning that the picture shows.The tool itself is alright but I was expecting it to be the same as the picture the ad showed.

3.0 out of 5 stars YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR, September 5, 2004
This review is from: Factory-Reconditioned Hitachi DS14DVF2R 14.4V Cordless Drill Kit w/Flashlight (Tools & Home Improvement)
I wore out 2 of these drill`s(factory new) in 6 month`s time during residential construction projects. Although i agree this is a comfortable drill to use, it is definitly one for lighter usage.

3.0 out of 5 stars good power for the price, not a long life, though, September 30, 2010
This review is from: Factory-Reconditioned Hitachi DS14DVF2R 14.4V Cordless Drill Kit w/Flashlight (Tools & Home Improvement)
For what I paid for this tool, it worked well. For about 6 months of fairly heavy use. Then it died. Probably a good tool for the homeowner/ hobbyist who doesn't abuse their tools as severely as I do. You won't find anything better for the price (I paid $70).

I would never buy another one of these drills. This was a waste of time and money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Arrived defective, January 28, 2005

I ordered this drill as a Christmas present. My husband had requested this particular drill. When it arrived, the mechanism was faulty (so much for "factory reconditioned"). It was a pain to have to mail it back to Amazon (although Amazon made it as easy as possible, did not charge postage and notified me when they credited my charge card).

I would NOT purchase this item (at any price).
