Customer Rating:      Summary: My kit was somewhat different Comment: I bought mine on eBay, and it came with 2 batteries. The batteries are the smallest 14.4's I've seen from DeWalt. They aren't the XRP's or even the XR's. They don't pack the punch (or duty cycle) of the larger 14.4's in any of my cordless DeWalts. I wonder if those with the short lived batteries have the same downsized 14.4's.
As the description says, this is a niche tool. It's a nice tool for limited applications. It's great for drilling cabinet faces and the occasional stud. But, I agree with the others who say that this tool is not intended for drilling studs all day.
My main complaint with this tool is the chuck. a 1/2" chuck would make this a more useful tool. The larger XR, or XRP batteries would be a big improvement as well. On the occasions when you need to get into a tight spot it's great, but in all honesty, I don't use mine very much.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great drill if used for its intent Comment: I'm a contractor & install a lot of cabinets. A corded drill is a pain and doesn't give the control you need for countersinking screw holes and screwing cabinets together. After reading a lot of the reviews I disagree with the problem of battery life if you use the drill for its intended use. A RA drill is not for drilling 2 bys and a 14.4 v will never last for the day in that application. That's what I use my 18v for. But for drilling & screwing up to 2-1/2" screws in tight quarters this drill will last most of the day and works great. I do have to admit that not having an extra battery is a slight downer and Dewalt should consider supplying one in the kit. That would definitely warrant 5 stars.
Customer Rating:      Summary: 14.4 Right Angle DeWalt Comment: I've been using this drill for about 9 months and for close quarters; it's great for that. I must agree with the other reviews about the battery life - it does seem to run down sooner than the Milwakee I also use regularly. It's aggrivated by the fact that DeWalt only ships one battery with the unit. If you need it for some close quarter drilling and don't need it to last all day, you'll be pleased with the purchase. Easy chuck opperation and is supprisingly well balanced and powerful. One real plus in my book is that it's the only drill my wife enjoys using, because, she says, the added leverage from the way it is held keeps it from twisting her wrist like the pistol grips will.
Customer Rating:      Summary: fine wood working tool Comment: Ok guys, if you are in the cabinet business or any other finishing business this tools is a must......other reviewers gave it a bum rating as far as battery life. well let me tell you this. it is not suppose to drill holes in studs.....buy a hole shooter if that is what you want. this is a fine tool for working in tight places, but it is not intended for framing work. i mean a few holes is fine........btu a hole hawg it is not......or intended......with the right applications you will love this tool
Customer Rating:      Summary: Interesting drill Comment: The drill works perfectly has advertised except that it is just a little too big when working in small or tight areas especially with 2 1/2 to 3 inch screws. It is also just a little heavy.
