Very good drill.

Date:January 25, 2010
"Great compact powerful drill,
with a name that has been around for quite a while.
I keep this one in my shop, so I don't have to go hunting for my other one while I am outside.

Best Choice

Date:June 29, 2009
"I bought his drill because my old Matercraft drill stopped working. I chose this drill instead of a dewalt competitor beacuse it was less expensive. I love this drill, batteries last a long time and the power you get from it is awsome!"

Excellent Drill

Date:January 27, 2009
"I have also used the more expensive Dewalt 18V drills and had them burn out within six months. The chuck, power and battery life is just plain better on these and they don;t break down. I've even used them to crank 5" holesaws through lumber and had no problem.
This may well be the best drill you can get in the 18V class."
