But it works great for what it is. So if you think you have a combo driver, drill, and impact, forget it. Havent had it long but it works great. I thought it may use impact during drilling concrete but it doesnt.
Ergonomic angle is much better. I bought both the Makita 12v and this DeWalt because I already had a set of 14.4 DeWalt tools. The Makita drove just as hard and I thought much better when it needed to torque. The LED light on the Makita is great for under counters with little or no light. The Makita feels better for all day use, is better designed. Replaceable brushes.
like a pro. With a few minutes practice anyone can drive any screw, bolt, nut, etc. With this lighter tool, not so much.
I have yet to find something it won't drive or drill. Another asset is the size and weight. I have a home repair business and have used this tool for several years.
The 18 volt DeWalt drill/driver gets heavy, especially when you are putting in drywall screws overhead. Lastly it's impact style of drive makes loosening stuck screws and nuts a little eaiser. I have not used the 18 volt driver yet, but on the other hand I have never needed more power.
I have noticed that Mike Holmes of the Holmes on Homes DIY show uses nothing but this tool.
Works excellent. The impact gun was exactly what I was looking for at a great price. It took about a week to get and was worth the wait.
I would highly recommend it to drive hex, torque or square head screws/bolts. The tool has plenty of torque, is well balanced and held a charge to drive over 100 screws. It doesn't work as well on philips head because it will easily strip the head if it slips. Bought the Dewalt 14.4v Impact Driver to drive tile backer board screws. The tool exceeded my expectations.
