The DeWalt DC759KA heavy-duty 18-volt Ni-Cad 1/2-inch cordless drill/driver features a compact size to fit into tight spots. Its lightweight design (only 5.2 pounds) minimizes user fatigue, and yet this drill/driver can still pack a punch--its high-performance motor delivers up to 380 unit watts. Other features include a dual speed range (0-to-450 RPM and 0-to-1,500 RPM) for delivering versatile performance and a 1/2-inch single sleeve keyless ratcheting chuck for a tighter bit grip. This drill/driver comes with a one-hour charger, two 18-volt batteries, a double-ended screwdriver bit, and a heavy-duty kit box.

Ha! A $200 joke... And its not funny either.

That about sums this drill up. It started out great, but the chuck eventually warped, and the battery stopped holding a charge after several months of light, household use. How much does a new battery cost? About $120.

I'd rather bust out the corded drill and extension cord...


Works for me

I am a homeowner and this is the perfect drill to have available for both small and large projects. Last summer it helped me build a deck and by the time one of the batteries discharged, the other battery was already recharged and ready to go to work.
I received this as a Father's Day gift last year and have been VERY pleased with it and it's performance.

Overpriced parts needed for repair.

They are no longer worth the money. Quality has gone down and parts prices have gone up. I have several of these, and every time one fails, it costs an arm and a leg to buy a new part. I have finally given up on DeWalt and just cannibalize another drill to get a part without going broke. DeWalt is useless in helping me with repair advice, and small parts are not available to the consumer. All they say is "Take it to our repair service."

Their battery packs are horribly expensive, too.

Dewalt vindicated!

I have read the reviews on this drill and, now that I use one myself, I am ready to give my opinion. Many wrote that the chuck wobbled and I hesitated to buy it for this reason. I use this drill constantly in a retail store and have had "zero" problems with the chuck in that area. It runs true to center and stays tight. The chuck works strange in that it tightens well only when the trigger is not engaged at all. The brake holds the chuck at rest and, only then, will allow the bit or driver to grip snugly. Works well! Although Dewalt may have fixed the issue because most of the negative reviews are two to five years old. The batteries hold a charge well also. I have only charged them once in about two months time using the drill for about ten minutes or so at a time. This is a company drill and now I am going to get another one for my home use. Great product and I hope this review helps any of you out there who are undecided to make a wise choice.

Received the tool ready to go, but I tested it to see if any of the problems noted by others were evident; notably runout in the chuck. None! It's well-centered, powerful, and runs very well. I have old, 12-V cordless DeWalt drills, and in comparison this is much, much nicer. I like being able to tighten the chuck with one hand, as it locks and allows turning without holding "the other part of" the drill. All around good tool; I've used it mostly for screwing in 3/8" lag screws, and it does that well...
