## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tough and dependable
*by J***H on September 10, 2025*

This drill can handle anything thrown at it. Tough and dependable. This drill joins my other DeWalt tools I have put my trust in.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good hammer drill
*by S***N on August 17, 2025*

Very good and powerful, I use it for bricks to mount a tv and it’s good.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked Great to Drive my 8" Ice Auger for Winter Fishing
*by D***N on February 11, 2025*

I use this drill for drilling holes in the ice to fish in the winter. I have a 8" diameter hand auger and the hand-crank part was a little bent, making it difficult to use. The main part of the shaft with the flights was fine, so I purchased this drill in hopes that it was powerful enough to drive the ice auger. Plus, I already had some DeWalt 5Ah batteries from other tools I own. I live in Colorado, and the ice was about 20 inches thick that winter. I was able to drill several holes without any problems. In the end, way cheaper than a full dedicated electric ice auger setup.......and now I also have a powerful drill for anything else that might require it.
