Good tool for good price

I'd used this drill on masonry job without problems. Good performance for good price. Would be better if total weight was lower. Good power and torque. Gear box and clutch are decent for this price class. Battery endurance is very good. Best value drill.
Happy, happy; joy, joy

I'm really happy with this drill. I only have one quibble: The LED that shows your work area in the dark is partially occluded by the chuck, so there's always a little shadow. Aside from that, it's great.
The whistling drill.

Reviewer: Bryan,
I just returned this drill to Lowes, it was making an annoying whistling sound. The man at Lowes told me that there was nothing wrong with it, that all of these same model drills make this noise. I think he was lying and I doubt he'd ever heard this drill in action, but regardless, I didn't want to try another, the drill - which is made in China - just feels cheap. The plastic they use seems low grade, especially compared to the Milwaukee drill I'm trying to replace.
