    Customer Reviews


    The drill is powerful and the hammer action is good for cement and brick fastner drilling. My only gripe is the chuck doesn't bite as hard as my Dewalt. The impact fastner is a beast! Light compact and battery last a really long time. I'm a general contractor and have Dewalt and Milwaukee lithium tools to compare. Makita and Dewalt win this round of lithium tools. Tool quality is excellent. The LED light and belt clip are handy.
    This tool has gotten fantastic reviews. Ignore the few bad ones. This tool is heavy duty and can handle my punishment as a contractor. We use it every day. It is not made for computer nerds that can build computers yet complain about the reverse switch.
    It's amazing how ignorant some customers can be.
    "The tool is too powerful and strips screws".....really It is a heavy duty tool with over 1330 in.lbs of torque.
    "It is less powerful than my Milwaukee 28Volt".......really? Wanna compare apples to oranges?
    "It takes two hands to change the hammer to drill action"......again really? What is your other hand doing and how hard, how often do you change from hammer to drill

    Well built all around! Solid feel yet lightweight for an 18V system. Silently delivers torque and speed. The grip and rubberized body ergonomics are just about perfect. These Li-Ion batteries last FOREVER! And having a backup driver is almost SINFUL. This combo replaces a 15yr old Makita Ni-Cad system...only because of battery obolesence. Makita has never disappointed and continues to deliver.
    Be advised the charger is a GIGUNDOUS beast (apparently there's a memory chip in the batts that the charger uses to determine optimal usage and charge rates...sucker even has a cooling fan). Consequently the hard case is a bit oversized...but do not let this deter from the performance.
    The LED lights are icing on the cake. Even the belt clips have come in handy...who knew?
    For those that do their homework - Check the specs and you'll see this unit is superior to the competition.
    Nothing but love for Makita!
