a great little drill December 20, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase
As a furniture builder I really don't have the need for the big and powerful drills except for a few occasions. This little drill is just the thing for the medium to light duty drilling that I need to do.
there are just a few things that I want to mention that may help others. First the size is just right. It is light weight and short. Easy to get into small places. The lithium batteries hold a charge for a long time and give the drill plenty of power. I have not had the problem with the time it takes to recharge the batteries. Once charged, they last long time. Second the direction switch is out of the way yet close enough that you don't have to search for it. I had a milwaukee 12v screwdriver and the swithc was always in the way. Either it was mid setting which locked the trigger or it was set at the wrong direction. It was very frustrating. Third the grip gives you good control and does not get tiresome with extended use. And last, the LED light is a great help when working inside a cabinet where there is little light to see.
I have the screwdriver also and like that just as well. Don't let the 10.8 vs 12 volt label fool you. With either of these tools you get you will get just as much run time as the 12volts.

Good for a year November 16, 2010
By DC
Did much comparison shopping before buying a Lithium drill, and I actually bought the comparable Milwaukee M12 3/8" drill first, since it beats the makita on paper (The Milwaukee has better specs, charge time, battery gauge. The Makita has a better price, better case and a holster). But the Milwaukee chuck would often slip, allowing bits to fall out, so I returned it and got this one.
My first impression of the Makita drill was that it seemed cheaply built. The Makita performed fine - not all the torque of a larger drill, but I loved the size, battery life was good - a charge would last most of the day. Charging time was under an hour. The case, with its plastic clips, is more flimsy than the Milwaukee, but had more space inside for drill bits, etc.
Now that I've had this for a year, the chuck has started to slip a lot when I switch speeds, causing it to just spin. The charge also does not last more than a couple hours - and one battery has gone bad. So the China-built quality is catching up with this otherwise decent tool.

Update: Brought the drill in for service and had it repaired under warranty. The tech said it needed a part in the switch that was about 60 cents.

Compact, lightweight January 10, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
For a 2-pound flyweight drill, it's got very satisfactory power. The batteries drive plenty of screws per charge, and recharge faster than I can use them up. If you need arm-breaking power for big holesaws and stuff, this may not be your ideal pick, but if you need something compact that won't wear your arm out when working overhead or at arm's length, it's pretty good. The automatic LED "headlight" comes on when the trigger is pulled, and stays on briefly afterwards, which I found useful when trying to line stuff up under a stairway.

One nitpick: the battery-disengagement tabs are a little stiff, so it might be a nuisance if you have arthritic hands.
