                  This drill built my house
                  A slightly earlier version of this drill was given to me as a gift about seven years ago. I am a DIYer, and have been building my house by myself for roughly that entire time. This drill has been monumental in this home building project. I used it to secure sill plates, drill holes in concrete, secure my metal roof, and secure drywall with thousands and thousands of screws. It survived, at least three 20 ft falls as I dropped it off the roof. The last battery finally died today. Though I’m sad to see it go, I am extremely happy with the quality and durability of this drill.

                    Dead batteries
                    Unfortunately this purchase has been a total failure. I bought this drill a few days ago, and the battery was not charging. I tried it in another charger (I have other Ridgid tools) and it showed an error. I returned it and got a replacement. Same issue with this one...battery won't charge and shows an error. Very disappointed obviously and now need to make a third trip to HD to return it!

                      Might be a good drill, might not be i wouldn’t know because they sent it without the drill bit or a working battery. Paid almost a $100 for a drill i cant use. Go to a different store.

                        horrible batter charger
                        -5stars… These battery chargers on rigid tools aren’t meant for the most basic DIY person let alone a light load handyman. The wires fray and snap unless its in a bubble or glass case with fragile labels all over it. Im dumping all my rigid crap in the trash cuz and going with Milwaukee and Dewalt. Trash, trash and more trash.

                          I have two main hand drills that I use: one is a heavy-duty yellow and black one that will easily power through a slab of concrete, but you wouldn't want to hold it overhead. The other is an orange and black light duty model that is great for small jobs, but its battery is getting old and there are no replacements. This Ridgid drill happily straddles the two. It is almost as light as the small one, and almost as powerful as the big one. Technology marches on, I guess. Feature-wise, this drill has everything except hammer-mode, which honestly I use very seldom anyway. The drill comes with a screwdriver bit, but no place to keep it, which is my only nit. Where you would expect to find the bit-holder is instead a well-located light. The charger is wall-mountable, the first I've seen, a nice touch. Since Ridgid is a Home Depot brand, I would expect replacement batteries to be readily available. I'd say this drill could replace both my old ones.

                          Powerful and weighted in hand drill. I like that it feels, acts, and powers through as a durable drill. It comes in its own case, along with the battery and charger. It also comes with the standard drill/screw tip bit. For me, this will be a home use power tool. It was a little weighty at approximately 3lbs, but it is far lighter than my old drill. From the specs on this, I could see this being commercial grade and used in that capacity. It has two speed settings, hex grip and even a LED light. With the proper bit, this drill can do whatever you need it to do. Also, per the directions booklet, you get free batteries, parts and service for the life of this drill when registering it with Rigid.

                          I really like this drill. There are several features that make it a great buy. Like all the Ridgid power tools I have bought, this one comes with a nice carrying case. It came with a battery and a charger (actually a big deal these days). The battery has a charge indicator that is easy to read. The drill has a nice balance with the battery is connected. The grip part of the chuck is large so it is easy to tighten and loosen. The drill has plenty of power. As you can see in the pictures, I drove a 1/2 inch drill bit through a pressure treated 4x4 with no problems.It also has a clutch you can set to allow you to drive screws to the right depth before it slips and stops driving. There is a light to illuminate the work area.. Another great feature is that the battery is compatible with other Ridgid products. I already own an impact driver and the battery fit right on and worked perfectly. That way on those long days srewing deck boards down you can keep both batteries charing and working. This is a good product and I would recommend it without hesitation.

                          Ridgid has made a very nice cordless drill/driver that has good weight and balance. My family has some corded Ridgid brand tools and they have lasted many years. This cordless model has plenty of power for any job. The keyless chuck works smoothly and the handle is comfortable and the tool is well-balanced. The battery is easy to remove by sqeezing the tabs on each side. A nice soft-sided carrying case is included that fits the tool, battery and charger. I wish it came with two batteries so you could keep working with one battery on the charger and one in the tool.

                          Compact, powerful, stylish! I wasn't sure I needed another Drill/Driver but decided to give this new RIGID 18 volt product a try. Initial impressions are very favorable. Pros: very nice storage and carrying case; very impressed with the compact design; lightweight; bright LED "task" lights. Cons: only 1 battery included and capacity is only 2 Amp-hour (but a nice LED battery gauge so I can see current charge). See my picture which compares dimensions to a much older "blue" 18 volt product also from Home Depot. Dimensions of this RIGID product are 8.75 inches tall (same as older product), but only 7 inches from back of motor to chuck (a nice improvement). Drill and included battery weigh just under 3 pounds, battery alone is 15 ounces. A very nice benefit is the RIDGID® Brand Lifetime Service Agreement but be aware: you must register your qualifying RIDGID® Brand Tool within 90 days after purchase. Register by logging on to www.ridgid.com, click on “Product Registration,” and choose the appropriate product category. This will be my "go to" drill/driver for small jobs, routine use around the house, or to toss in my vehicle for emergency use.
