          Product specifications say this drill is supposed to come with a tool bag but it didn’t. Is there a way to request a drill bag from Dewalt?

                Hello Jon, Thank you for your question. You can use any 20V and 60V DEWALT batteries. The higher the Ah/Amp the longer the runtime.

                      Possible bad manufacturing day?
                      This was a gift to add to my LOVED atomic collection soally for the hammer action. It sat on the shelf until a project that needed it, and that was today. Maybe thirty minutes used in hammer mode (not constant) and now any other mode the thw gear don't seam right. I've read some similar issues with this drill. Maybe the same manufacturing batch??? Doesn't seem like dewalt quality. I could understand if this was a every day use drill.

                          I have several DeWalt products and value them all. However, The hammer drill does not do anything that my DCD771 variable drill driver doesn't already do. The drill setting drills and the hammer setting drills. It did not hammer. It was ineffective on the concrete project for which I purchased it. DeWalt is still my go-to hand tool source, but this product did not add any additional capabilities current tool inventory.

                          Great Household drill
                          Great drill for around the home or professional use. Use it around the house for basic work as well as for professional handy man use. Works great on basic masonry jobs. Paired with the new power stack batteries it works well.

                            Weak Hammer Drill
                            The hammer drill function vibrates about as hard as my electric toothbrush. If you are drilling into masonry or concrete, you better not be in a hurry.

                              Good drill, but battery is mid
                              I think that the drill itself is a very good tool, but the battery’s trash. I’ve been waiting for two years for DEWALT to build a better version of the original drill. The problem is that you guys have built 12 V and I expected you guys to build it with 20 V. All the workers are always looking for a faster and stronger version and I think that the 20 V is the better selling version. I am waiting for the 20 V version and I will not buy the 12 V version until you guys release the 20 V version. Thank you for listening and creating tools to better every worker’s experience.
