    5.0 out of 5 stars Professional performance for amateur price, 11 April 2008
    By Mr. A. M. Patterson "Patto" (Guisborough, Cleveland) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    I use one of these at work and the balance, speed/torque performance is superb and up to everything you'd expect from a professional 12v drill. We reckon DeWalt is the "Rolls Royce". This one is an ideal weight for work combining drilling and driving. Let's face it, if you are doing a lot of large diameter holes in masonry and no screwdriving you would get an 18v hammer version, however this sort would be too heavy for general stuff.
    Beware though of overcharging the batteries. This shortens the life and they are not cheap. Switch off the charger when the light stops flashing but follow the instructions for the occasional "maintenance charge".

    3.0 out of 5 stars Consider upgrading, 27 Aug 2008
    By Darran Phelps (Wiltshire, England) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    This is a good tool, well made, of rugged construction and easy to use. I have had one for some time now and have found it, almost as soon as I bought it to be greatly underpowered. I would buy Dewalt again however I would not buy a 12v version. A minimum of 18v would be a a must for anyone considering purchasing this for regular use. With the 18v version you will also get the benefit of hammer action, which is an added bonus. Another thing to consider with any cordless drill/driver is that unless you are using it regularly the battery life will seriously be reduced.

    4.0 out of 5 stars small but mighty, 29 Oct 2008
    By Foxylock (Ireland) - See all my reviews
    (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
    I keep this handy in the van for a range of uses.Not the most powerfull drill out there but at 12v it proves more than capable of dealing with the easier jobs.The two batteries are more than adequate and with charging taking about an hour downtime is significantly decreased.Overall a mighty little drill
