This tool is probably good for small things around the house I didn't use it just put it back in the box sent it back spent an extra $200 and got a more heavy duty dewalt that I am extremely happy with

This is my 3rd Dewalt drill. 2 cordless and 1 heavy-duty plug-in. My Dewalt XRB has been a piece of garbage since day I got it. Very expensive and batteries never lasted more than 5-10 minutes. Reached out to Dewalt several times with no luck about how terrible it was. They then stopped making batteries for it and they sent me email saying to get generics. They were garbage too. SO - Now to this new DEWALT 20V MAX* Cordless Drill / Driver Kit, Compact, 1/2-Inch (DCD708C2). It is absolutely fantastic! Tons of power. Tons of torque. Batteries last a LONG time. In fact I just built 4 10' sections of fence with 1 battery! The chuck is a ratchet type and is great. Has a bult-in work lite, however, it stays on for 20 seconds after you are done, which I don't like much. Wow! I was very hesitant to purchase this DEWALT 20V MAX* Cordless Drill / Driver Kit, Compact, 1/2-Inch (DCD708C2), but after doing lots of research decided to give Dewalt another try. Glad I did. My faith has been restored after the horrible XRB fiasco. One thing - they are no longer made in USA (for some time now). Only possible negative is the soft case that comes with it does not seem to be that tough. Should have came with a "good" solid hard case for the price.

WELL WORTH THE PRICE -- IF LOST I WOULD REPLACE IT RIGHT AWAY -- VERY NICE THAT IT IS LIGHTER WEIGHT , BUT CAN GIVE THE HEAVY DRILLS A RUN FOR THEIR MONEY-- WHICH MAKES A DIFFERENCE IF YOU ARE USING IT ALL DAY --

Returned item for a little larger 3speed, heavy duty, more powerful and sturdier built model even though it cost approximately $40 more.

I have used it few times now and I really like it. Well balanced. The light is a nice touch. Good range of speed and torque. I can't tell you how long the battery lasts, I haven't used one up yet. Nice carry bag.
