DeWalt Reviews

This drill is a great drill. There are definetly cheaper drills out there, but if you want a variable speed drill from 0-1200 RPMs this is the drill for you. There is a lot of torque. The cord is heavy duty along with the chuck. The only thing I think could be improved on is the reverse switch. It can be easily bumped to reverse the drill direction and it is also small. That's a minor complaint for an outstanding drill.

I purchased this model instead of the cheaper DeWalt 3/8" drill because I wanted something to handle the abuse I will give it. Used it to build a very large wooden outdoor fort and swingset for my boys and loved it. Had no problem with using 1 1/8" spade bit to drill counterbores. Plenty of power.

If you have become spoiled by keyless chucks, yet still have an older (likely corded) drill that performs like a champ but irks you whenever you fail to find or fitfully fumble with that foul little chuck key, this is just the ticket. It is genuine DeWalt product, so you don't have to be worried that it is made of inferior Chinese steel .... Third party Japanese Jacobs chucks of good qualtiy can be had for less, but if you are a true DeWalt diehard, you will want the genuine article.

Perhaps you never considered retrofitting your drill with a keyless chuck -- what are you waiting for?!? It is easier than you think and all you need is a large hex wrench to clamp down on. Make that Old Yeller drill feel like a pup again!

I have always wanted to try a keyless chuck on my 38 years old drill. When I came across the one by DeWalt at Amazon I thought I would try it. I made the purchase and installed it on my drill. Wow! What a difference... installing it on my drill was a snap! I no longer get the squealing and chewing of the drill bit as with the old style chuck. Inserting and locking the drill bit in the chuck is extremely easy, not to mention that there is NO key to fight to lock the bit tight enough to keep the bit from slipping, and no key to wear out or lose. I love this keyless chuck and wish I'd gotten one years ago!

This is a solid, heavy-duty impact wrench using 1/2 inch sockets. It comes without a case or sockets. It is powerful, easily driving 5/8" lags (5 inches) into old, very hard wood (with a pilot hole). I had a small job to do but it was worth the money for this wrench.

THIS PRODUCT OUT PROFORMS ALL OF THE OTHER ELECTRIC IMPACTS I OWNED.THIS ONE IS NOT SUBJECT TO OVERHEATING AT ALL.I BULID DECKS FOR ALIVING AND WHEN MY LAST ON BROKE I DECIDED TO GIVE THIS WRENCH A SHOT.THIS WRENCH HAS POWERTO SPARE BECIDES YOU CAN DROP IT BET THE HE[CK] OUT OF IT AND IT STILL WOUNT BRAKE.THIS TOOL IS BY FAR THE BEST AVABLE.

This is a rough cutting blade for framing, rough carpentry, etc. Very good quality.

This blade replaced a blade in need of sharpening. I never thought much about the difference in circular saw blades but this one makes remodeling a pleasure. The cuts I made after I put it on were faster, more accurate, and dropped about half as much saw dust. My other carbide blade had an alternating direction tooth pattern, I don't remember the brand but it was thicker and heavier in comparison when I took it off to put this one on.

This item allows for straight, consistent cuts with your circular saw. Makes tasks like shaving doors, ripping, and similar functions quick and easy. It attaches to your circular saw in a matter of seconds, and requires no tools. Don't go without one of these, you will use it more than you think.

This product is a musthave for any user of a circular saw. It is essential in making accurate cuts when ripping wood into narrower pieces.

This is the 2d time we have ordered 3 of these sanders from Amazon. The guys in the shop bragged about them so much that the installers wanted them. Then I had to contend with the BOSS!! HE wanted one for his own tool box. Thanks Amazon for the great service..Ordering was simple and delivery was FAST!!!

We keep about 12 of these in our shop for light to medium duty sanding. We've found that they survive being dropped off the work benches a lot better than some of the more popular ones do. We have replaced about half of them with hook and loop pads since one of our suppliers has lowered the price to about the same cost of PSA paper. The brake tends to wearout after about 50+ hours of use, but is easy and cheap to replace. We've looked at getting the DW421, but are doubtfull that the dust collection sys. would do much more than get in the way or get broken early in it's life. We own many DeWalt products and though we would like to see more of a true "professional" grade as opposed to the "consumer" grade that a lot of the manufacturers tend to cater to, they have not disappointed our expectations.

I was shocked when I got this combo kit. I was under the impression that all 6 tools in the combo kit would fit in the case. This was not the case. What I got was a standard 4 tool combo kit with a grinder and an angle drill in a seperate cardboard box. There is no case of any kind for the angle drill or the grinder. The drill I could live with but the grinder has 2 seperate guards, a wrench and the different grinding & cutting wheels. I think they should make it clear that there is no storage for those tools. As for the tools they are what you would expect from Dewalt

The is the perfect cordless combo set. The battery life is EXCELLENT and performed a lot longer then I expected. I have used every tools except for the Cut Off Tool which so far took care of business. To everyone out there, because this is a cordless set, this combo is meant to do small to medium projects.

So good that I bought two more and might buy another soon. Nice and strong, solid, goes together easily. I don't use it for any DeWalt tools, so just drill my own holes to suit.

Being a woodworker, I was very tempted to build my own stand for my Dewalt 735 thickness planer. I seen this stand and thought I'd give it a try, mainly because of it's wheels. I've had it for over a month now and absolutely love it. This stand is made out of nice thick metal, very sturdy, and even lets you decide how you want to assemble the wheel mechanism. This stand is very stable, easy to roll, and easy to clean up.

I do feel that the assembly instructions could use a bit more detail to help assemble the product, however, that could easily be up to the user.

I would also like to mention this stand is not necessarily made specifically for the Dewalt planers. It does have instructions on how to mount non-Dewalt planers. If you do have a dewalt planer, it has 2 pre-printed templates for both models so you can easily see which holes to use on the tabletop.

Excellent quality, excellent price.

It was recieved as new as can be. I am happy with the product so far.

these metal cutting blades are trully fantastic; I recently replaced over 200 sections of half inch shedule 4o pipe at busch gardens with one blade (thats 2 cuts per fence section). the blade is still cutting as well as it did new. The blade could be sharpened if needed. the blade saved at least 8 man hours in removing the bad sections.This more than paid for itself that one day. In my opinion and experience it is the quickest and easiest way to cut metal, beats abrasives, hands down.cuts are effortless and bur free with no sparks. its all gravy now..

excellent service - order came in earlier than expected - thank you

RAPID LOAD HOLDER WAS WELL ENGINEERED, STURDY AND VERY USEFUL.IT WAS A WISE ADDITION TO MY TOOL BOX. SAVES TIME!

I have been doing a lot of work that requires me to drill holes and then use my drill as a screwdriver. This little gadget makes me tremendously efficient. I just pop the drill bit in and I'm ready to work. It cut my time by about 75%. Well worth the money.
