Larger drill with plenty of power and solid metal chuck for drilling steel, this is to replace a similar model we bought years ago but broke as we stood on it and smashed the trigger. I have also bought a lightweight version as this is a bit too heavy for smaller jobs when reaching at arms length on top of a ladder and for the cost of them it makes more sense to have mutliple drills to save swapping bits over constantly.

This is the 3rd time I've bought from PowerToolWorld and without exception they have been faultless each time. I'd recommend them in a heartbeat to anyone. Great work from the Power Tool World Team

I think this is the second time I’ve reviewed this item, and I haven’t changed my mind! It seems to be a really good machine. Much more powerful than my other, older Dewalt combi

Big boy DeWalt drill. Worth the money for the power and flexibility.

A superb tool. I can’t find fault with it. I gave 4 stars not 5 because I haven’t had the drill long so am unable to assess reliability and longevity.
