BEST 18V Dewalt drill PERIOD!
 
Review Date: June 4, 2009
Reviewer: Brandon Giesinger, MN USA
I bought this drill to replace my Dewalt DC925, which fell off a roof and landed in a big nasty mud hole, I just figured the drill was toast and ordered a new one, saved the 925 for salvageable parts. The DCD950 and the DCD970 are the EXACT same drill except the clutch ring, which is black on the 950 and silver on the 970. The difference is the batteries that are included 950 has the XRPs and 970 has the new NANO's(lithium-ion). OK, back to the comparison
Pros of the DCD970/950 VS. the DCD925
1. Much Better balance
2. More power in both low and mid-range(Dewalt says the DC925 has 480 unit watts vs the DCD970's 450, but the DCD970 is more powerful
3. WAY smoother speed selector (moves back and forth, not in an semi-ellipse like the 925)
4. L.E.D light on front
5. Shorter in length
6. Drill/screw/hammerdrill, various clutch settings are no longer on the same ring, clutch now has its own ring.

Cons of the DCD970
1. Due to pressure from a group of so called "tool users" who ONLY seem to care about aesthetics, Dewalt changed the base to the new nano style, which means if you actually use the drill it only has space for one bit on the front and WILL Not hold a screw guide or short nutsetters very well, whereas the old style base could fit a screw guide for TEK screws on one side and a 1/4" and 5/16" short nutsetters for tapcons on the other side.

However, overall the DCD970/950 is a excellent drill and deserves 4.75 stars, if Dewalt would change the base it would be a 5 star item, but that will never happen thanks to people who care more about how a tool looks rather than how well it works.

I cleaned off my old DC925 and put in a fresh battery and the thing works!! Well now I have two, I guess that is what I get for asuming things, oh well I like the DCD970 better anyway.
My Best Drill Ever
 
Review Date: October 23, 2009
Reviewer: Jack A. Mracek, Yucaipa, CA
I must have purchased and worn out a half dozen Dewalt drills over the past decade. Some where great units, others where very cheap quality. They were all 18V. So this time I took the time to research the Dewalt line up and not just grab whatever Home Depot was peddling. I also decided to stick with 18V since I had so many other tools of that series. This has got to be the perfect drill. The drill chuck is all metal, holds super tight and is of a machine tool quality. The transmission is 3 speed and the whole unit just has a very rugged feel. The power is awesome. While not scientific, this thing must have at least 50% more torque and power then my previous drills. I can drive 3.5" deck screws into dry wood using high speed and cut a 4" hole saw into wood using medium speed. I even mixed a 5 gal pale of drywall mud with a beater using the low speed. This thing is almost on par with my 1/2" dewalt corded drill. The other nice thing is that the lithium ion battery seams to hold its power right up to the last second. Then the battery just shuts itself off. This scared me the first time. I was really torquing the drill and I thought I had blown something. But that is just how the battery operates.
The only negative is that the drill is heavier then I have been used to. Of course this is offset by the lighter battery but you might be disappointed if you are looking for a feather weight. It also seams to be a little bit longer then some of my other drills of this style by about 3/4 inch. Getting in between studs seams to be a little tighter then I'm used too. But this drill also includes a hammer feature and it is way shorter then my previous hammer drills.
Over all I'm very happy with this drill and was very impressed with its performance.
Awesome drill

Reviewer: D. Mozingo, Canton, Ohio USA
Got this drill on sale at Lowes (they had a 15% off all Dewalt tools deal). My older XRP batteries were drained after almost 5 years of use, and I wanted the new lithium ion ones, so I figured I might as well get the drill with it. It's quite similar to my old DW988 XRP drill, even the single bit holder as the other review mentions, so I'm used to it. No problems so far, and it's standing up even better at tough jobs than the old DW988, though I'm sure the new lithium ion batteries have a hand in that.

I've dropped my old one off roofs, down ladders, and out windows, never having a problem. I expect nothing less with this new one.

Highly recommended!
lots of power, 3-speeds, fast recharging
 
Review Date: September 29, 2009
Reviewer: Phillip Marsh, Texas
This is an excellent drill. DeWalt was slow to release a lithium-ion battery powered cordless drill but the XPR is the best of the best. What sets it apart from those from other manufacturers is the 3-speed gearing. Cordless drills have limited power and work much better for high-torque demanding hole cutters or work materials when the they can be geared down. Having a 3rd low range gear is very useful and this drill will more readily power through situations where a Milwaukee, Makita, would bog down and my Hitachi would overheat and just suddenly stop.

This drill also demonstrates why the torque specifications of the drill manufacturers need to be taken with a grain of salt. This XRP drill will out drill the Milwaukee M18 cordless that in theory has 20-25% more power. Having the right gear reduction settings is really critical to getting all the available power out of the drill.

I like the side handle that grips the drill and can be rotated 360 degrees. I use it not to support the drill but to control it when it starts to bind - as when using one of the miserable little Lenox One Tooth (not recommmended) hole cutters or drilling into steel with a large bit. I wish that DeWalt had included the option of adding a depth rod to the side handle as this can be helpful when boring into masonry and needing a fixed depth for an expansion bolt.

The clutch action works well though it does not feel as smooth as the Milwaukee to which I am more accustomed. The clutch also is more difficult to tighten and tends to lock up requiring pliers to loosen it.

Battery life is excellent so long as you stay away from bi-metal hole saws which are incredibly inefficient and can suck a battery dry after a single hole. Recharging is very fast, 15 minutes or less. I do wish that manufacturers would use more charger LED indicator light designs. With Milwaukee there is a red LED that lights up while the battery is charging. When the charging is complete a green LED lights. Pretty easy to figure out and no manual needed. With DeWalt there is a blinking red light that then becomes solid. Better than Hitachi where a green light means the battery is too hot to charge. With my four different chargers there are 4 different LED light schemes to provide me with the charging status. It does not have to be so complicated.

The carry case, though not nearly as nice as those from Milwaukee, is a sturdy one with metal latches and an oversize handle. There are no convenient places for drill bits and other small items which would be useful.

The one problem I have with the drill is its chuck which is difficult to tighten and even harder to loosen back up after drilling. It often takes pliers to loosen the chuck and remove the drill bit. This may get better over time after the drill has had more use but for now it is a bit of a pain.

As lithium-ion drills go this is the best one I have used and I have 18v models from Makita, Hitachi, and Milwaukee, that I use as well.
But for the chuck it would be hands down the best drill on the market in terms of raw performance. It does not have the same balance as the Milwaukee or lighter weight of the Makita and the Hitachi drills but the 3-speed gear reduction is not something I would want to do without.

I have switched over to using high performance TCT hole cutters and adjustable tungsten carbide hole cutters and the 3 speed ranges of the DeWalt XRP is a perfect companion drill for much faster hole cutting, and cutting much larger holes in wood than I would have though possible with a hand drill much less a cordless one, and getting the maximum number of holes drilled or screws set per battery charge. For light to medium duty use I prefer the Milwaukee M18 which is a more refined tool in terms of its metal chuck and clutch designs. For heavy duty drilling the DeWalt XRP drill with its 3-speed ranges and much faster recharge time is the best tool I have come across and it will definitely stay on the truck.
Excellent value -

Reviewer: Fred from Texas, Texas, USA
I purchased this drill primarily for the Li batteries. It was a better value to buy the tool plus batteries than just the batteries. I have used the drill for light duty work at the house. It has preformed well. I would recommend the drill to others.

Reliable, long-lasting LITHIUM-ION power is just one part of a full feature set.
M12 Lithium-Ion Power: Compact, Lightweight, and Dependable
Cordless power frees you from the cost and waste of disposable batteries and the hassle of setting up and using manual tools, but a cordless tool is only as reliable as its battery--that's where M12 LITHIUM-ION batteries come in. You can trust the 1.4-amp-hour lithium-ion battery that powers each Milwaukee M12 tool to deliver long runtimes and fade-free power. Lithium-ion batteries will also offer long battery life, so you'll save money by avoiding replacements.

Since lithium-ion batteries are significantly smaller and lighter than competitive NiCad batteries, they play an integral role in making Milwaukee's compact M12 tools ergonomic, comfortable to use, and easy to maneuver while you work.

Plus the M12 LITHIUM-ION battery charger delivers fast, 30-minute recharges, so you can be sure that your tools will be ready to use when you reach for them.

M12 Series Tools: Innovative, Portable, and Easy to Handle
Launched in 2008, the M12 series from Milwaukee offers compact, lightweight tools that are easy to transport and easy to maneuver on the job. Innovative designs that target application- and trade-specific performance allow M12 tools to live up to Milwaukee's reputation for durability and heavy-duty construction while remaining smaller, easier to handle, and more versatile than many competitors' tools.

Fast becomign a Milwaukee Fan
 
Review Date: August 3, 2009
Reviewer: Dave,
I purchased the 1/4" hex chuck driver a while back and can't say enough good things about it. When I saw this slightly beefier cordless drill from Milwaukee in the same product family I couldn't wait to get it. It's a great size for light duty work. I like the 3/8" chuck because finding a drill bit with a 1/4" hex shank for the other non spade bit drivers that produces a hole larger than 1/4" is not as easy. Having a higher speed range for drilling and having the clutch are also pluses above the basic driver. I have a Bosch 1/2" 18v hammer drill for heavy duty jobs but it's WAY too much drill for light jobs around the house. This Milwaukee drill/driver is a great intermediary range tool. The trigger pull is smooth and consistent and makes controlling the speed of the drill easy, the clutch has enough range to handle plenty of diverse needs and the size is very convenient to have in a holster if you're working on a ladder or wearing it on a tool belt all day. The life of the lithium ion batteries is great and the recharge is pretty quick at 30 or so minutes. The battery technology has clearly come a ways from my old DeWalt 18v NiCd setup. (which was stolen and is the reason I branched out to different systems such as the Bosch and the Milwaukee) The only down side I can find on this drill (and the 1/4" hex driver as well) is that when I'm using the drill in reverse, my index finger on my right hand tends to hit the "forward" button. It's not a large problem, just something I have to consciously think about when using it in reverse. That's a large hands issue though, not really a fault of the drill.
Compact power that lasts all day
 
Review Date: December 8, 2009
Reviewer: J. Ralls, Fremont, CA USA
This little wonder is a great jobsite drill/driver. It's small and light enough to fit in a tool-belt bag. The battery has enough charge so that the two it comes with last the whole day, with plenty left over. It has plenty of power for most home-building jobs short of driving lag bolts, and the little headlight is great for setting screws in dark recesses.

My only complaint is that the various manufacturers of similar tools didn't standardize their battery packs, so pick the brand that has the right combination of other tools for the work you do.
M12 3/8" Drill/Driver, a Solid Choice
 
Review Date: July 25, 2009
Reviewer: G. Abad, SF Bay Area, CA, USA
I just received this Milwaukee M12 drill and am very pleased with its quality and performance to date. All features (chuck, clutch, transmission, trigger, light, etc.) work very well. It is heavier than most other drills this size but still clearly lighter than my 14.4V 1/2" Dewalt Nicad drill. It will work well on smaller jobs and even some big ones. The hard case is of very high quality. I am happy with this purchase and recommend this Milwaukee drill to anyone in search of a solid 3/8" cordless drill.
Nice Product so far
 
Review Date: September 12, 2009
Reviewer: R. Gettler, Leesburg, VA
I just purchased this product a few days ago, and so far it has met all of my expectations. It is typical Milwaukee, like all my other Milwaukee tools. My DeWalt 1/2 cordless impact drill/driver is starting to have brush issues, seemingly somewhat prematurely, although it did work well so far. I decided on the smaller Milwaukee 3/8" drill/driver after seeing that nice little rapid charging lithium battery pack at Home Depot one day. It won't replace the 1/2" vibrating drill needs, but rather fill a gap when a smaller light weight job comes up. Besides, I can get out the corded Makita for that anyway... If this tool turns out like the 2 sawsalls, portable band saw, drywall driver, 2 circular saws, dovetail jig, etc... This will be a great tool.
Great drill for the size!

Reviewer: smitty, wilmington,DE
This is one of the best cordless drills I have owned. This drill replaces my dewalt 18v ,which was getting to heavy and awkward for small jobs. This drill will be able to do both small and large jobs with the power it has. It is solidly built and made to last. The light on the drill comes in handy when working in cabinets or closets. I like the battery meter on the side of the drill to keep track of usage. I would recomend this drill for anyone looking for a powerful but lightweight cordless drill.

Product Description
Torque, torque and more torque! This package is nothing but power. The 14.4-volt cordless impact driver and the MForce drill put super strength in your hands for the toughest tasks.

Despite being beastly powerful, this impact driver is shockingly compact and lightweight, with a total length of under 7 inches and weighing in at a mere 3-1/2 pounds including the battery. But don’t let that mislead you -- impacts per minute range from 0 to 3,200, with a maximum tightening torque of 1,240 in./lbs. And the power doesn’t quit, either, because the nickel-metal-hydride battery packs a greater capacity and longer run time than standard nickel-cadmium versions. Even though it fits snugly in the hand, it’s an absolute dynamo in the power department, and the variable speed is smooth as silk.

There are two nifty light-related features on this Makita, and we weren’t all that impressed with them on paper. But in reality, the phosphorescent rubber bumper immediately catches your eye, whether you’re rummaging in your truck, fumbling in your garage or scanning the job site for any left-behind tools. And the integrated high-output LED really does light up the workpiece, saving you time and frustration. We always like to see tools with easily accessible and easily replaced brushes, because if your tool’s in the repair shop, it’s not making you any money.

The MForce drill/driver is just as powerful and just as rugged as the impact driver, with the same high-efficiency nickel-metal-hydride battery power. Speed ranges from 0 to 400 and 0 to 1,300 rpm to tackle just about any drilling or driving job, with a Makita-made Shift Lock Drive that lets you switch quickly between modes, locking out the clutch for drilling work. And like the impact driver, the drill in this combo is compact, lightweight and easy on your hardworking body. The rubberized grip absorbs any vibration and feels great in your hand.

The fluorescent worklight will come in handy, too, whether you’re in a crawlspace or under an engine. All three pieces are Makita quality, and the price on this combo beats buying them separately. -- Kris Jensen-Van Heste

If your work requires you to drill or drive in a lot of tight or awkward places (under sinks, overhead, inside cabinets, between pipes, etc.), this Black & Decker five-position drill/driver may be the perfect tool for you.

A comfort-grip handle and three-finger trigger provide excellent control, while a 24-position clutch and variable speeds of 0 to 700 rpm allow the drill to power through wood, steel, or masonry without damaging bits or stripping screws along the way. --Carl Thress
