Ratings & Reviews for DEWALT 1/2-in Keyed Drill

Great Corded Drill

I bought this drill a few weeks ago to have in my arsenal in addition to my cordless set of drills for drilling in tougher situations and mixing concrete in 5Gal buckets. It mixed like a dream, got pretty hot as to be expected. The secondary handle makes mixing a dream, and the 10 volts proved helpful over my coworkers older, lower voltage, corded drill. I also used it for drilling some 3/4" holes through a trippled up 2x12 beam and it went through super easy. As it is a more powerful drill it i...

Looked OK until I actually started using it

Out of hte box it seemed nice, handle for keeping drill steady, nice chunky solid exterior. When i finally got around to using it, I noticed it has a pronounced wobble. So I thought maybe the chuck is bad or I put my drill bit in wrong. Both seemed OK, the chuck itself wobbles on it's axis, this can only mean the shaft is wobbling. When I put a long drill bit in, the wobble becomes extremely pronounced. It too late for me to return it, i'm not sure what I'm going to do. Aside from the wobble, ...

Great drill for heavy duty work

After realizing my 18V Milwaukee wasn't going to drill my 2-9/16" holes with a self feed bit, I used an old corded drill until I burned up the motor. I did a quick search for a reasonably priced, powerful drill and this one caught my eye. After picking it up at Lowe's, I am very impressed with the power. It drilled four of my holes in a few minutes, where they were taking 15 minutes each before. The price is great considering how powerful this little drill is. It's reasonably light weight, alt...

Excellent 1/2” drill

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this drill in February to use to wire brush some old beams. The drills handle was helpful when I was brushing the beam. It has also been excellent for drilling wholes in concrete. Impressed with the quality of the tool.

This drill is a Beast!

This drill is super powerful. I drilled thirty (30) -16” deep holes into a walnut log. It hardly slowed down! Does an amazing job and powerful. Hang on to the handle cause it has a kick. This drill is a Tiger!

Definitely a workhorse

This is an inexpensive workhorse that gets the tough jobs done. Front grip gives plenty of muscle to the bit. Highly recommend.

Powerful drill

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve owned this drill for about 6 months. I use it for drilling holes due to its key chuck it can really grip the drill bits.

Drill it

Powerful drill. Easy to adjust for different projects. Bright color makes it easy to spot after putting it down.

NICE HAMMER DRILL

This hammer drill is the best. Drills through wood, metal, plastic, concrete and much more!!

Great Product

I purchased this produce a few weeks back. I have not used it yet, however, when building a deck on the back of my house, I borrowed this same drill to use for securing the decking planks. It worked beautifully and I decided I had to have one in my tool collection.

Handy Husband

We have been remodeling our home and for the most part my husband has all the tools he needs. With this remodeling he has run into a few aggravations with owning all battery powered tools, so I began buying him electric tools to match his battery tools. He had been borrowing my Father’s electric tools but when I came home with this drill it really made his day. He loves it! It isn’t big and heavy like my Father’s and it does a better job. He loves his new set of electric DeWalt tools.

Great drill for the Price

Drill was easy to maneuver with the handle attached. Had better grip. Heavy duty and well made.
