Summary: No Complaints so Far
Comment: This was a gift for a family member, and they said they used it and liked it. Can't go wrong with a DeWalt....that's why we bought it!
Customer Rating:
Summary: The DeWalt D21008K is great for drilling and screwing
Comment: I almost did not buy this because of the negative comments about not being able to use this for screwing. To the contrary, by using two fingers on the trigger it is very easy to control the speed for work with screws or for slow drilling. I have used it on several projects for screwing or removing screws. I love this product.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Worth Buying
Comment: A good buy. Has more power than I anticipated, with little or no vibration. A bit heavier than I thought it would be, but OK. Does not come with drill bits, so I subtracted 1 star.

Summary: Fantastic tool for some operations
Comment: Being my first power tool, I have put this drill through its paces to stunning success. This drill has done duty as the main household drill, a contractors drill driving lag screws 12 hours a day for several weeks, and now, it serves as a powerful tool in my wood shop.
This tool is tough. Its been dropped down stairs, on concrete and asphalt, from tops of ladders, its been banged around, beaten up, and never once, has it ever missed a beat. I swear I could run my car over this thing, and still not break it. This tool will last you for a very long time no matter the paces you put it through. Its powerful enough to handle almost any job you could ever ask it to do, and it wont even break a sweat doing it. The ratcheting chuck will hold any drill bit tight from 1/16" to 3/8" without any slippage. It powers through wood, masonry, and concrete. Shoot, if this drill were a person, it'd be Goliath in a David sized package.
This tool does have some problems associated with it. This Drill is meant for drilling, and driving, but not much else. There is no such thing as slow and steady with this drill, its either stop or go at 2500 rmp's. This drill is great for those people who feel close counts, but for those who feel the need for precision, this drill is not for you. It is all but impossible to drive #4, #6, and #8 wood screws without either stripping the daylights out of them, or torqueing the heads right off. As for noise level, Dragracers aren't known to be quite, and neither is this drill.
All and all, this drill has all of the power you could ever ask in a drill. The lack of a variable speed function severely limits the drills versatility forcing it to be a specialized piece of equipment in your shop. Given the chance to purchase this drill or another drill, I'd still purchase this one.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Satisfied Customer
Comment: I am very pleased with the quality and performance of the drill. The variable speed trigger is sensitive when using at a very low speed, but with practice one quickly becomes adapt at this. I really like the 2 way level feature for maintaining straight drilling rather then just guessing.
The case is a nice item for storing when not in use or for transporting to job site.
