Dewalt DCD796P2 XR Brushless Combi Drill with 2 x 5.0 Ah Lithium-Ion Battery Packs, 18 V, Yellow/Black, Set of 7 Piece

I haven't used it much yet, but here goes. It is a little heavier than others I've owneded, but to me that spells quality. It's good to handle and manipulating the chuck is straightforward. Battery life seems good - I will have to wait a little longer to verify this. I live in France, and it will charge easily on a French plug with an adapter. I have now, in fact, installed a U.K. socket alongside the French one, so I can assure the rest of Europe that 210/220 volts is no problem. I haven't checked charging time yet. So overall I am very pleased. Incidentally, why did I buy on Amazon U.K? It was comparatively cheaper - and delivery was better than on the continent! Considering the current situation, that was excellent.

Fast delivery nice easy transaction top seller. The drill is really powerful as I hoped it would be I feel I made the right decision with the dewalt drill two batteries and a charger all in one really well made case value for your money in buying it this way I love the drill it has everything you need hammer drill screwdriver plenty of different settings so easy to use 10/10 for the drill 10/10 for the seller

The last time I bought a cordless drill a few years ago it was between this and a much cheaper Bosch. I decided on the Bosch and then regretted it. The chuck used to visibly wobble meaning it wasn't properly centered. The batteries died after a really short time. I've bought this now which I should have done in the first place so I've ended up spending more than I would have done if I'd just trusted my gut. The De Walt instantly had the feel of high quality. Something that the Bosch didn't. It's no wonder that all tradesmen seem to use them.

My 10 year old De Walt combi drill started having slight problems when moving between standard drilling and the hammer drill function. After reading many reviews i bought this one, and i'm so glad i did. It is a little lighter and more compact than my previous one. Spent the last 2 days driving over 900 one and a half inch wood screws to strengthen a section of standard garden fencing panels and thought the battery was fantastic. 930 screws driven home and the battery pack is still showing 2 bars out of 3. Not bad going so i decided to leave this review. As another reviewer says the battery pack has some slight play when fitted which i had not expected from De Walt but doesn't detract from its function, Just a little niggle. Did wonder why there was no clip on the drill body to hold a spair drill bit....only yesterday realised that the little black part on the lower body just above the battery was magnetic and is the bit holder. Does a good job, strong magnet holds every thing steady. Very happy with my purchase.

I think that l have got a best cordless drill to use the general diy job around the house rather than any cord drill.

My second Cordless Drill have been using my power drill as my old cordless was not up to the job. Ordered the DeWalt DCD796 18v 5.0Ah. It arrived in 3 days excellent timing as I was about to build a wood frame to support the roses. As there was a wall behind the roses I decided I would pin the 100mm half-round posts to the wall. Hoping the DeWalt could drill 7cm into the brick wall so I could use masonry screws to secure the 5cm post to the wall. The DeWalt performed way over my expectations. I completed the 6 post structure with horizontal rails, putting 2 x 7cm wood screws at each wood joint. Took most of the day and the DeWalt battery check, 3 bars, still showed 75% battery power, Job done. I have a great respect for this DeWalt product and will treat it with the respect it deserves.

Like this drill have the smaller version and bought this one to cope with the tougher jobs it saves the smaller one that is five years old and going great hope to get the same service out of this one. Both very good drills.

I bought this DeWalt combination drill after extensive research and was not disappointed. The touch sensitive button give excellent control of speed variants and the touch element provides light that I thought I didn’t really need. An excellent product that I would highly recommend.
