The only downside is the location of the "reverse" switch. This drill was a life-saver in constructing our new home. There were several places that my full-sized Porter Cable could not be used. It is somewhat difficult to operate in close quarters. The power and design of the DeWalt was truly a blessing.
Overall the drill works perfect.I put a few of my own scratches and smudges on it, it's a tool it gets used. I bought recons before and they were very clean. This is a recon drill, it actually came with a couple of smudges on it. I didn't see scratches or signs of use/abuse just the smudges.It came with 2 batteries, they are not the EXP batteries, just plain 18v, I didn't know they made them. The batteries are OK, the EXP holps a charge much longer, but these work.It's a good value, I would recomend it and dealling with tool king was easy and would deal with them again and buy dewalt recons again I checked the desc and there is no claim they are EXP.
I have tried to do without this tool because its not used all the time but when you need it there is no substitute. Great deal. I waited on the purchase because of the price but when I saw this reconditioned tool kit I would not miss out. The power is great and then you get two batteries also.
Great tool. Just wish the forward reverse button was a little easier to access. More than adequate torque and long battery life.
If that's what you are doing get a powered Milwaukee or DeWalt Right angle drill. We keep these around for occasional use only. When nothing else will suffice, this tool performs very well. Driving a few screws or drilling holes in tight places from time to time, nothing beats it. This will only burn out and dissapoint you. BUT, it will not handle big bore bits, it is not appropriate for drilling out dozens of studs for electrics, it is not intended to.
