You need power, but you don’t want to hoist a ton. Here’s the answer. DeWalt’s revamped 18-volt compact drill/driver delivers on both counts, with a 1/2-inch chuck that grips beefy bits, an 18-position adjustable clutch, and a high-performance motor for the torque you need, packaged in a truly lightweight, comfortable drill. The variable speed has a high and low range for any application, and the reverse switch is right above the curved trigger for easy access. The included charger juices up a spent battery in an hour. We especially like the light weight, even more so because it doesn’t cost in the power department. Lots of pluses: on-board bit storage, two batteries, hard case. We think contractors will be pleased with this drill, especially after a long day.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

I was afraid of buying this due to the other reviews detailing the chuck wobble. Even though AZ had a great deal i avoided the purchase. I was at the orange home center when I saw a good deal on a package dewalt drill and circular saw. Not realizing that the drill included was the same DC759, I purchased the kit.

I checked the drill out real carefully, looking at the chuck to see if it wobbles. It appeared that it did wobble, yet when I drilled a hole, the hole was perfect.

I have no problems with this drill. It has plenty of power, drills a perfect hole and drives screws effortlessly. It is a little heavy,but I have problem working with it.

Highly recommended.Especially at the price AZ has it for.
If I am not mistaken, Dewalt has a 90-Day Money Back Guarantee, so what do you have to loose?.

The drill is great
The chuck is garbage
They will drive quite a few 4" screws before they start smoking. Even after they do the seem to keep running. Only one burned out so far.

The problem with all Dewalt 18V is why by the batteries for $120 when you can buy a charger 2 batteries and the drill for the same price.

I walked into HD the other day and the had the Flashlights on sale for $99 with two batteries and a charge so I bought all they had in the store.
