Great drill
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Much more powerful than the 14.4 V drill I had before. The light is a nice feature as is the quick release chuck.
compact & well balanced. Feels well made and durable. I now have several DeWalt cordless tools with no complaints.

This was a gift for my son- in law and the last he received. His eyes lit up with delight. He couldn’t be more pleased. Top quality tool with excellent reputation, and the price here was most satisfactory.
Excellent Drill

Excellent.
Bad Plan buy locally
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
I was anticipating using this drill after reading the reviews. I do home and neighbor stuff so it would have been useful. The packaging from Amazon was awful and the case was floating around inside the packing box. I opened the drill case and I am sure it was a used item. It had marks all over the drill housing and the batteries wouldn’t charge. Don’t buy these items from Amazon. I returned for a refund.
Love my drill!!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I’ve owned several drills in the past, but I absolutely love my new Dewalt!!
pros:
Great power
Light on the end of the drill is nice bonus.
Feels pretty balanced
A good compact size.
Battery time is good.
Charges quickly.
Price on amazon was really good.
Cons:
Have to be careful to set it to the correct torque. I accidentally tore the head off a screw. (Love the power).

Quality Drill

You get what you pay for. This is a fantastic drill and has met all of my needs. I’m not a contractor or put the drill to heavy use, but it does everything I ask. I really should review it in 10 years, but since I just got it, it has exceeded expectation so far. Amazon had the best price anywhere and I got quite a deal. Drill, case, 2 batteries, charger. More power, longer lasting on a charge, and more heavy duty than any drill I have had previously.
Well worth the cash.

This Dewalt is the best compact cordless on the market,it may cost alittle more but quality is worth it
Great Value
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I purchased this drill/driver for my husband to replace a Dewalt drill/driver he has had for over 18 years. All of his power tools are Dewalt so I saw no reason to change. I researched on line to find a good deal & Amazon as always beat out the competion. Great drill, great price.
Great drill
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Being a journeyman carpenter for over 20 years this is a great drill. I have had this drill for ten years now and I am just now replacing the battery. All of the tools that I use are from various manufacturers based on the tools ability. I use Dewalt drills and miter saw. I use Makita for saws as well. It just depends on the tool to which brand I select. Each brand is known for something and Dewalt makes a great drill.
A really good cordless drill
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
My son gave me my first 18-volt cordless drill (Black & Decker) four years ago. It was adequate for light use, but lacked power.
I upgraded to the DEWALT 18-Volt Compact Drill when I started my barn project. I have definitely not been disappointed. It has far more power than my B&D and the two speed feature is a big plus allowing a slower speed for driving screws and a higher speed for drilling metals. The 1 hour charge feature is a big plus.
I highly recommend this item.
Great Drill
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This is the best drill that I have ever owend. I have only used it a little bit since the purchase but bought this and am very happy with it. This is a very powerful drill. It even screwed right into 2×4 without pilot holes. Charge seems to hold for a long time. Make sure you charge as soon as you get it. I put the battery on the drill just to check for charge and it seemed to have one so I didn’t charge right away. Well charge from factory was minimal so had to stop project to charge the the batteries, good thing is the battery charged in about an hour.
best drill I have had
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Best drill I have ever had. It just has a better feel to me than my frineds Milwaukee. I had a Ryobi that worked well for 1 year, but after a year it started to run rought and it was suggested to me to buy a more quality tool. Wasn’t sure to get Dewalt, Makita, or Milwaukee, but I’m glad I got this Dewalt. Small for an 18v but more than enough power.
work horse
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I have put this guy through the test more than once, its a work horse easy to use and holds up well. This is the second one. I have had the first one still works well except the battery’s have gone bad and they cost as much as a new drill.
Works flawlessly
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I had never purchased a high-end drill like this, but my friend and I were working on converting a large closet into… well, lets say a “dark room”. I didn’t want to spend $200, but the friend had much more construction experience, so I bought it. We beat the heck out of this thing over the last year and it looks it, but it operates like it just came out of the box. That’s what one would expect, right? It has one function and it should do that one thing very well for many years. Hopefully we get to the “many years”, but so far, it’s been great and worth every penny.
A bit overrated….
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
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).
Amazing Drill
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Upgrading from a Skill 18v drill to this Dewalt 18v was amazing. The Dewalt makes my old drill look like its running on 2 AAA batteries. The light is great, batteries last forever, fits comfortably in my hand, all around great device.
Great Drill. Video instructions available
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Love this drill. We made a video manual for this drill on HandBookLive.com (under Tools). The drill is very simple to use, but if you are more visual and don’t want to to read instructions – this is a quick way to see what it does, and how to use it. In my opinion the video is more useful for woman like me, who want to feel more comfortable using a drill for the first time (I remember using a screwdriver forever because I just wasn’t so sure what kind of damage I can do with an electric tool).
We bought it when we decided to build a loft and didn’t want to use our cheap drill for such a big project. We use it all the time for quick fixes around the house. This drill is light and feels great in the hand. The speed control is very good too. And I never used to bother with speed controls on my drill before.
Have fun with it!
Quality Product
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Has the feel and performance of a quality product. Comes with a hard shell case and two batteries. Easy to use. I especially like the light that focuses on the work area when the trigger is pulled.
Good drill bad service
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Very happy with the drill. It arrived from Amazon poorly packed and it appeared the product had been used for some time. It was also missing the accessories that should have come with it. No bad for Dewalt, just Amazon.
Wow- Powerful!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
The first time I pulled the trigger on this thing, it blew my hair back! It’s powerful. Sheesh. But for the money, I expected something good, that would be very versatile for home use. I’m very pleased with it. It’s not too heavy, easy for a woman to use.
Great Little Powerhouse Drill
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
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.
Not all parts were delivered!!!!
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I was so looking forward to using my drill but Amazon neglected to send all of the parts! The end of the drill wasn’t there! This leads me to believe that I was sent a used product. Shame on Amazon!
Love it

This is one of the best investments I have ever made. I use it for everything from sanding to drilling.
Very pleased

Exactly what i was looking for. Good power. comfortable grip. I love the light feature. What a nice idea. You press the trigger and you have instant light where you need it! The battery last a long time. Very pleased.
Could not be happier
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
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.
The Cadillac of drills

Man this is the best compact yet i drilled clean through a tree in 15 seconds with ease and i am talking about a real tree. I’ll be back to review it further after I finish building an addition to the house.
