## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dewalt tool
*by T***D on August 29, 2019*

Love the durability

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Made in America
*by J***. on March 8, 2021*

Quality drill made in USA

### ⭐ Died after 13 months of barely being used!
*by C***O on January 26, 2008*

I purchased this drill for my 2-4" holes saws. Thought with the angle handle and high amp's it would be great. I must say, it worked perfect for the 1 year warranty period. Shortly after (13 months) it just completely stopped on me as i was drilling a 1/2" hole for a lag bolt. I was very dissapointed. I have a 20+ year old Milwaukee (6.8amp w/out a right angle handle), still works just as good today as it did the day I purchased it. So when the Dewalt died, I replaced it with another 1/2" drive Milwaukee with the handle. I would recommend not purchasing any Dewalt tools, even if you "joe home owner" just using them around the house. All my Dewalt tools (1/2 drive drill, jig saw, reciprocating saw, and radio) all died within 3 years of purchase. They all had light use, nothing strenuous. Spend a few extra $$ and buy a Bosch, Milwaukee, or even Makita.
