New 2023 Dewalt 20v 1/2" Driver/hammer drill

Would Recommend

Purchased to replace old Dewalt drill that has just disappeared (misplaced and have found yet or it was stollen, pending further investigation.). This is the newest addition with added options. Making projects around the house easier. Current project is to steel brush the crossbars on wood fence 2X4's removing old chipping paint.

hammer drill is a must.

Would Recommend

Amateures: Don't drill concrete with normal drill, even if YouTube says you can cause you might break your drills chuck. gave me an excuse to buy this and I'm very satisfied. Cutting corners and making due when broke or inexperienced is understandable, a B&D drill and hammer held my shack upright for years, but fixing and building things right with the right tools is worth the money If you have it and loss of hearing. EYE PROTECTION IS A MUST!

Dewalt Brushless Hammer Drill - a handymans drill

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently had the opportunity to use the 20V MAX* Brushless Cordless 1/2 in. Hammer Drill Kit by DEWALT®, and I must say, I am quite impressed. This drill is a real powerhouse, and it exceeded my expectations in terms of performance. One of the things I really appreciated about this drill is its brushless motor, which provides a lot of power and torque, while also ensuring that the tool remains cool and durable. The hammer function is also a ...

Smaller than the XR, Mighty in its ability.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My primary utility hammer drill for the last 5 years has been the DCD796 XR 20 Volt driver. When this new DCD798 Driver came out I decided to give it a go exclusively for a whole month on all my jobsites. The new DCD798 is about an inch shorter than the XR and roughly 3.5 oz lighter. To date I have drilled well over 2000 holes into high strength concrete and some tiles. The DCD798 runs 350rpm slower than the XR at 1650RPM giving it a better...

What a Great Drill for Tough Jobs

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always been interested in owning a hammer drill and have been looking at the dewalt ones. This drill is great, definitely a wonderful addition to my collection. This drill is great for drilling into concrete. My boss was looking to install these steel corner posts and we had to drill into concrete. I brought this drill to work and even my boss was impressed with how easily it drilled in. the quality of this drill is exactly what I would ex...

Awesome replacement for my old 18v

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just finished testing out my new 20v hammer. While I usually use the xr series, I was still impressed with this drill. The size comparison of this drill compared to my old dewalt 18v hammer drill is simply amazing being that it packs as much if not more power. If I had to say anything I had to pick something I would want improvement on, my only wish is that the light would be brighter. The compact size makes this an easy to use and easy to ...

Hammering to a win!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used a lot of DeWalt tools in my life and this one holds true to the unparrelled quality that you expect from a DeWalt power tool. I was a bit skeptical of this drill including the hammer feature in a cordless variety, as I've used up a lot of batteries trying others hammer drill functionality. I haven't used this one as much as I had hoped to so far, but it has met or exceeded my expectations. The chuck is smooth and grabs bits and dri...

Long lasting and still improving

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my new Dewalt hammer drill! It's compact and efficient, and I know it will last me a lifetime. I'm so proud to be able to pass my older, still working version down to my son as he moves away to college. Dewalt products are simply unbeatable!

A drill that performs amazingly for the price.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Extremely power. I love the battery life. With a bigger battery makes this product so much better. In all would highly recommend it for most people. Whether you’re a first time power tool user to a professional like myself, quality and price are perfect for this product. Also DeWalt carries an amazing warranty as well.

Compact, Lightweight and Powerful!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using dewalt drills and impact drills for years. I've never owned a Dewalt cordless hammer drill. I do mainly interior trim and cabinetry work so I only use a hammer drill a few times on one jobsite. I had to put tapcons in some sill plate in a garage the other day and it gave me the opportunity to try this new hammer drill out. First I will say that I love the size and weight of it. The head is actually a little shorter than my reg...

Nice compact hammer drill DCD798

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the compact size of this drill/driver. I used it to get into tight spots i couldnt get with my full size drill. Power was adequate for all drilling/driving jobs. Ive only had it a few weeks so cant say really how it will hold up,but its a Dewalt so i dont question its reliability. It's alot lighter than my dcd995 which is still running strong. Its nice to have both on hand when the need arises. Keep up the great products!

Lightweight but STRONG.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hammer drill is an ideal tool for the purpose. It’s lightweight, but packs a serious punch. It’s punched through concrete and asphalt with bits from 1/8”-7/16 in diameter with a clean hole and not much wobble at all.

Lightweight hammerdrill

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a nice light weight hammerdrill. This seems to have plenty of power to drill through various materials, including wood, plastics, metal, and concrete or cinder block. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a lightweight hammerdrill.

Dewalt 20v Max Brushless 1/2" Hammerdrill kit

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] All you guys out there that had or still have dewalt hammer drills from way back when they were big and bulky with the massive short-life batteries need to check into these new and definitely improved 20v brushless hammer drills. This little drill packs a punch for its size. When equipped with the correct bits you can definitely use it to get those jobs done on brick and concrete. It's not the most super heavy duty drill and definitely not ma...

Awesome tool for any project with plenty of power

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For a 1/2" drill it is lighter than any other i have used. But works great with plenty of power. Used it to put up a new deck. Had no problem with the 3/8 3" lag bolts or the 3" deck screws. Great tool for any project.
