DEWALT XR POWER DETECT 1/2-in 20-volt max Variable Speed Brushless Hybrid Capable Cordless Hammer Drill ( 1 -Batteries and Charger Included )

Hammer Drill Vibration for all settimgs.

I purchased the exact same item shortly before this one. I returned it (as I am with this one) as soon as I received it, because it had the exact same problem of the DCD998 Hammer Drill having Hammer Drill Vibration for ALL settings. (For this type of Hammer Drill): I am used to Hammer Drill Vibration only on the Hammer Drill Setting. I am used to just drilling without Hammer Drill Vibration for all the other settings. I tested a DCD1007 Hammer Drill (that for me is basically a slightly smaller...

Recommended based on light duty use

I was excited to get this inflator, it checked a lot of boxes such as ability to use it with a cigarette lighter or A/C power. It has Automatic shut off when set PSI is reached and it is portable. Being a DeWalt I fully expected it to be sturdy and robust. I returned it because while it did most of those things it just didn't impress. The build quality is not up to DeWalt standards. If you want the advertised A/C power ability you are forced to spend another $50 for an adapter that's not in...

Power house drill

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have owned it for almost a year now. Never had any issues with it. Use a 6 ah battery or a 8 ah and this drill will plow through anything you put it up against. I also love the hammer function. Although I don't use it as often as the drill mode it works great when I need it. Better to have and not need them need and not have. DeWalt never seems to let me down. Mostly use for automotive work but also carpentry to. Only thing I dislike is every t...

Awesome Drill.

I have the DCD996 and now this DCD998W1 power detect hammer drill/driver. While I can not talk negatively in anyway on the 996, but this drill is definitely a refined upgrade to the 996. While they both share a similar look and feel, the 998 looks a little more polished and feels a little more comfortable in your hand. But the biggest difference is in power, side handle, and sound. This drill seems quieter, while being much more powerful. It also seems to have better air flow which seems to keep...

Incredibly powerful drill.

Thought I loved it

This hammer drill does a great job with all the power you could ever want, and it seems to run forever on a 5-amp battery. I really like the shaft brake; it's the quickest I've ever used, and the three speeds make it very versatile. The down side is that the chuck keeps loosening and my bits fall out. I don't know if it's from the torque of the shaft brake, or something else. A drill that won't hold a bit is a really great boat anchor, but it's not helpful on the job.

A must have for any Tradesman!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an electrician, I have had my share of different power tools. I have tried everyone known to man, and i can tell you with absolute honesty and boldness, that no other brand compares to Dewalt. I have dropped my Dewalt hammer drill off of the tallest of tall ladders (on accident of course), climbed down and put the battery back in it, and it worked just as it should before the nasty fall. I've worked out in the rain, snow, and heat, and never...

The Ultimate Drill for Serious Craftsman

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been a craftsman for many years and the single most important tool in my tool chest is the power drill. This drill not only has all of the features that I need but the performance that any hard working person needs. These tools have the power, performance and battery life to get the thru any demanding day. The tools are physically balanced which helps with reducing fatigue. The selection of speeds give you the choice needed for matching ...

Most Power!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Years ago, my wife bought me a set of 20 V Dewalt tools which included a hammer drill. I used it for a very long time and when the lithium batteries came out I debated upgrading for years. When finally it was time to pull the trigger, I sold all of those tools (which were still working just fine) and replaced them with Bosch. I was so disappointed at how much less power these newer tools had. Quickly I sold all of the Bosch stuff and returned t...

Awesome with no competition

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hammer drill is no joke my Knick name for it DHQ (Drill the Holes Quick) the reason is cause it has bail me out of many jobs in a quick time frame. I have used all brands of Hammer Drills like Rigid, Makita, Milwaukee etc.... But none of them can’t stand beside this DeWalt Hammer Drill. To me is the best accurate and durable tool in the market or business . DeWalt makes the best tools. My Dewalt Tool boxes where stolen from a job site. But...
