GREAT COMPACT DRILL
I LOVE THIS NEW ADDITION TO MY TOOL LIST. THIS COMPACT DRILL IS FOR WHEN YOU DON’T WANT TO HAVE TO CARRY AROUND A HEAVY FULL SIZE DRILL. ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE GOING TO CARRYING IT ON YOUR TOOL BELT. HAS 1/2” CHUCK AND A WHOLE LOT OF POWER.

Dewalt quality
Works great. No problems with any of the functions. Chuck secured the drill bits tight. Drill torque worked great. The trigger and light worked flawlessly.

Great, powerful, light drill
I recently started upgrading my tools, and I wanted another drill in conjuction with my DeWalt hammer drill. This drill is light, it’s powerful, it gets the job done and the price was just right when I bought it. Highly recommended!

Seems like a great drill.
So far, it’s a great deal! But I thought it was odd that it arrived in an envelope. The drill was not in a box just in a clear bag inside of an Amazon envelope.

No good
I have thousands in Dewalt tools. Never had a warranty issue. I bought 2 of these drills, both turn backward before going forward when the switch is pressed. I called warranty and they wanted me to drive 4 hrs to a repair place or ship them. I bought 2 new Milwaukee drills on sale at home depot. I’m done with Dewalt and can’t wait to replace all of it.

Well made, BUT !!!
GOOD: compact, has power & well made.FAIR: the light is simple, not powerful, aimed a bit wrong & minimal at best.Other drills, with settable lights: MUCH better in EVERY way & worth spending a bit more money on.

Never disappointed with dewalt products. Good solid driver. Compact size better in confined areas.

I originally placed an order for this on September 4, 2024, but, checking the order status 2 days before the scheduled delivery, it had not been shipped and nor had my account been debited.Reading some of the reviews, I thought was a bit suspicious and cancelled the order.Two days later, I found the same model for $AUD37 cheaper and still shipped by Amazon US so I placed an order again.This time my account was debitted and the order status showed it was being shipped.It was delivered yesterday in a pretty beaten up unbranded cardboard box containing a New Price/Tool Haven branded plastic bag with a ‘with compliments’ slip inside.There was no padding in the box, but it did arrive with what looks like it is a genuine Dewalt instruction manual and the beltt clip.Oh, and http://www.newpriceinc.com is ‘unavailable’ due to site maintenance and http://www.toolhaven.com doesn’t exist.I have about a dozen DeWalt power tools and they ALWAYS arrive in a DeWalt branded box, and, often with a sticker with either the build date or serial number or both stuck to it somewhere.DeWalt tools must be registered online to be able to claim any warranty beyond the 12 month warranty provided by Australian consumer law.There is a build date where the battery clicks in and a model number, but no serial number I can find anywhere.This unit was made in Mexico late last year.Also, the model number is unusual in my experience with other DeWalt power tools. Typically, DeWalt model numbers include a suffixx which can identify whether the tool is skin only, part of a kit, or for a particular market.For example, DWE7491-RS or DCN680N-XJ.The model for this unit is DCD794 TY1 which returns no results from a Google search.I note, too, that the price has jumped $AUD47 since I placed the second order.However, having said all this, the drill is solidly built and exceeded my initial expectations with regards to speed control and power.It’s just that there are a few things about this purchase like there being no serial number and it being poorly packed without DeWalt branding that are slightly odd in my opinion which is why I have rated this only 3 stars.
