A very good small drill and a powerful compact does the job well!
Highly recommended !!
And most importantly, every purchase on Amazon is just an experience !!!
Rien dire de plus que c’est une super perceuse. J’ai du mal a visser facilement avec car elle est puissante. Pour les petits vissages, prenez quelque chose de plus simple. Fonction marteau pas encore teste
Cadeau d’anniversaire de Monsieur qui est ravie et qui dit que sa puissance est gniale compar d’autres modle de marque
Gefallen hat mir der Preis fr ein top Akku Schraube
Changed out my older Black and Decker 18v for the De Walt. Sometimes the locking ring is hard to undo when changing drills or other accessories but that’s probably just me! The drill is just the job making most tasks easy because it is small and lightweight but delivers enough torque to join two 4×4 planks with relative ease
So far, exactly what I had hoped for – and some.
Feels great, works really well and packs power and life – thanks to the 5ah batteries.
Some other reviews asked does it come with a case, mine did.
Love using it, feels like it’s attached to you. Highly recommend!
Very good tool , I vorking as carpenter, use every day. Very good quality.
The dewalt 18v series is a joy to work with. It’s my first time cordless and it’s worth changing
Excellent product. That’s why we’ve bought another for our workshop.
This is the best driver I have bought. I usually buy the 1 down from this but glad I didn’t this time. Battery life depends on size of battery. Great drill.
Einen Tick zu schwer, aber dafr gehen alle Schrauben problemlos auf! Radkreuz ade
I use this everyday for my work, absolute quality wouldn’t expect anything less from dewalt and a great price too would highly recommend
I had an older drill, which the batteries are working just fine, this lightweight drill was an obvious change as the older drill was heavy and tired. Very pleased with the outcome.
Excellent value for money and it arrived in no time at all.
Amazon offered it at a discounted price so bought two of them and have only used them for different pilot holes.
I use 2AH batteries which have been light to hold and lasted for approx 3-4 days on a full charge. Couldn’t be happier.
I have another De Walt drill that has brushes and a mate recommended the brushless unit to me. I can certainly say that this unit is FAR better than my previous De Walt drill. This has far better control of the speed and the torque is incredible. I use the bluetooth 5AH battery and I have yet to run out of charge when working with this drill. It seems incredibly efficient and just keeps working!
Fantastic value for money, and a powerful piece of kit the light is a great helpful addition.
After 8 years my old Dewalt Combi Hammer, has not packed in, just showing signs of age. I will be very pleased if this one lasts as long ( the original batteries lasted about 5 years)
Just received mine today, really happy with the product, battery life is really good. I highly recommend this produc
Only likes. This is my third Dewalt hammer drill driver. The last two (still working but in another country for now) have a 3 gear gearbox and this has just 2 gears, but it is approximately 40mm shorter and lighter too. The LED is great in that you are now able to see the work piece in the wall and it has three brightness settings. The whole mechanism sounds and feels smoother than my last two even when they were new. Can still drill 16mm right through an outer house wall.
My second Cordless Drill have been using my power drill as my old cordless was not up to the job. Ordered the DeWalt DCD796 18v 5.0Ah. It arrived in 3 days excellent timing as I was about to build a wood frame to support the roses. As there was a wall behind the roses I decided I would pin the 100mm half-round posts to the wall. Hoping the DeWalt could drill 7cm into the brick wall so I could use masonry screws to secure the 5cm post to the wall. The DeWalt performed way over my expectations. I completed the 6 post structure with horizontal rails, putting 2 x 7cm wood screws at each wood joint. Took most of the day and the DeWalt battery check, 3 bars, still showed 75% battery power, Job done. I have a great respect for this DeWalt product and will treat it with the respect it deserves. John H.
Cheated by Amazon because this was not New as advertised in the web page when ordered. It did not come with original packaging. 1 star deducted. I have not bought DeWalt “naked” tools but have Bosch naked ones. No manufacturer would miss the opportunity to advertise by having their name prominently displayed on original OEM boxes of products.
Have to wait for better weather for first job of the season to test it out fully when repairing fencing. Meanwhile all I can say is that the chuck spins when battery inserted and triggered engaged.
Update Feb 2021. Decided to return the naked DCD796 to Amazon anbd bought a new one in kit form including case, charger and two batteries. This is the highest torque combination drill/driver I envisage needing before getting out the 2kg AEG hammer drill and the last time I had to use the AEG was 6 eyars ago chasing cable runs.
amazingly powerful drilling in any material, light to handle, quick to charge
Dewalt combi drill cracking little drill will take a lot off stick and these drills are used a lot on site very light and powerful and great work light on the frame mick rhodes
I always had cheaper drills but found that they were not quite up to my expectations. Although this is not a cheap item I am very impressed with its performance. The only very small negative comment is that it is hard to twist the part that alters the torque applicable with my arthritic hands. Otherwise very easy to use and batteries are very long lasting which is just what I wanted..
Works perfectly well would recommend and will use this company agai
Bought this to replace another of the same that was stolen.
Boss piece of kit, I use it in a mechanic setting.
Boss with a wire wheel and a flap disc. Boss for drilling into steel.
Took it home a few times and drilled holes into concrete.
Used a 16mm masonry bit to install a motorbike land anchor and it was sound.
Get this one over the 10.8v or the smaller 18v.
And buy a 5ah battery. It’s worth it.
Been after this drill for a while now after using someone else’s brilliant tool thanks Amazon/powertool
I cancelled this or can you check I didn’t pay for i
Tackled a few heavy duty jobs with this and it has not failed to impress. One job actually killed a lesser version earlier this year, this Dewalt tackled that job worth ease.
My only whinge is that the battery slot is a little slack side to side but this doesn’t detract from the performance in any way.
I already own a Dewalt Ni-MH drill that has done sterling service over the last few years but, having recently bought a few DeWalt 18v XR tools I decided to get a drill, just because it means I can have one set of batteries with me to swap around as needed.
I bought this bare, so have used it with a 4.0AH XR battery. First impressions were good, as it felt solid and well balanced in the hand. It is quite lightweight and surprisingly small, which made me wonder if it was more of an “occasional” tool rather than the usual DeWalt pro standard. Once in use though those concerns were dispelled very quickly.
Like other DeWalt drills I have used you have to really tighten the keyless chuck as far as you can, but once it is tight it will hold the bit all day long. Really like that the chuck is smooth metal as well, harder wearing but also less likley to damage a surface if you come into contact with it whilst drilling.
The first job was to install loftboards using screws. I had done part of the job the previous month with my Ni MH drill and found just how tough loft boards are, resorting to drilling pilot holes for the screws.
On firing up this drill it seemed to be significantly faster than my other drill, even on the 1st speed setting. On putting the first screw in I found it was much more powerful as well, driving the screw in easily without a pilot hole. The compact size made it a doddle to manoeuvre and around 40 boards were fixed in short order.
I occasionally swapped the battery out to use in my Dewalt Jigsaw when 5 boards needed cutting, but after both jobs checked the charge indicator light to find I had 3 bars still. Then used the same battery in the jigsaw and an angle grinder to cut up the old loft water tank and still had 2 bars left.
Final job for the day was to fit some shelving brackets and light fittings. Using the same battery still the DCD796N and turning it up to No 2 speed it easily and smoothly drilled through brick and plaster as quickly as it had when acting as a screwdriver. It was very noticeable how much faster it was than my (previously perfectly acceptable Ni MH) old drill.
A final check confirms that the battery still had two bars of charge, so impressively efficient to boot.
One feature worth mentioning is the light. Usually these are a tiny LED mounted somewhere near to tool head which almost invariably put the mark you are drilling or screwing into in shadow. fail to light the work area. The light on this model is a proper LED, mounted on the front of the battery housing where it projects up to illuminate the whole work area perfectly.
It is such a simple idea but made such a difference when working in a dark and often confined space. I used it on its lowest setting which was still more than bright enough, but there is a brighter setting which is equivalent to a torch. Both stay on for a few seconds after you stop drilling to allow you to check your work, or there is a torch setting which leaves the light on until you turn it off.
Overall this is a fantastic tool and one I highly recommend.
My husband is a hard man to please!, But this new toy has changed him!! I never see him, only hear him as he completes a whole mishmash of long awaited DIY projects with ease. It comes with 2 x Battery’s that last a long time. It’s powerful with a handy light. Drives and drills well, weighty but manageable!!
What a machine. Replaced and older DeWalt drill. Some difference. With two 5ah batteries for that price!! Perfect. The drill is an animal too
Says what it is.Had to wait couple weeks for the charger.
superb drill and superb value where you already got other xr tools with batteries
Great quality from dewalt as you would expect, this has been in constant use, and never lets you down.
ook a while to get used to extra weight, worth the upgrade from my old gizmo.
I live in France, and it will charge easily on a French plug with an adapter. I have now, in fact, installed a U.K. socket alongside the French one, so I can assure the rest of Europe that 210/220 volts is no problem. I haven’t checked charging time yet. So overall I am very pleased.
Incidentally, why did I buy on Amazon U.K? It was comparatively cheaper – and delivery was better than on the continent! Considering the current situation, that was excellent.
Bought. This to go with the bigger supposedly more powerful drill only to find this is superb and very powerful
Its build is of the best I have used and over the decades I’ve gone through dozens of drills, You name em Bosch,makita’s, stihl,Milwaukie’s ect and this is by far the best built and also the strongest.
Priced on “Other retailers” at 300 I couldnt find it anywhere that was within my 250 budget which I find is enough to pay for a cordless drill, Then I looked on Amazon and saw it at a shockingly 225..B00m I snapped it up.
Its very fast, very sturdy, looks Amazing! and has TWO 5ah batteries and I cant tell you how usefull that is when your busy and the battery dies whilst the other one is in the charger and fully charged!
There is two little things that I didnt like thou?
They where its weight, I am a very big built fella 25 stone and using this was easy, however it is really heavy! but that also reflects on the quality of its build like ultra-strong allow and steel where needed, Dont forget these are really well built and the parts in them will Always be fairly heavy due to the build, So its 6 of one and half a dozen of the other…
One last thing that bugged me was the battery,
It sits into the charger perfectly its a bit fiddly to figure out how to slot it in at first but when its in the drill it really moves.
I would say it moves as much as one mil which may sound nothing but it is when you’re talking about the quality of the build as it just slightly rocks left and right, IF you have no issue with that then this is THE Perfect drill for you.
Overall I would give the drill and charger/batteries a 8.5 out of ten, Had the battery fitted better id of given it a 9.5…This is something that Dewalt need to look into, Also DONT FORGET about the 3 year warranty on it! You will need to have the charger and the drill with it as it asks for serial numbers on both also the model number on Amazon which is “DCD796P2-GB” but ul only need to use the GB when you’re asked when you go to register the drill for the warranty.
Many thanks.
As stated I don’t like the chuck,shame as it spoils a very nice drill ,I understand the early models could be changed over to a keyed chuck.
It’s a really good drill ,NO BATTERY OR CHARGER, But found a 18v 2amp XR battery for 21 at ToolDen.co.UK
And a Charger for 16 at ToolDen.co.uk.
The Drill is better than the 100 Dewalt drill from screwfix, so for less than 100 quid, I ended up with a much better Drill.
Fast delivery excellent service packs a punch 5v battery bargai
Brilliant Love this drill . Buy the original Dewalt drill bits Last longer + better at the job and a lot quicke
Excellent product. Powerful yet compact and lightweight. Well designed and feels very comfortable when using. Good battery life and useful addition of a powerful light which comes on when the drill is in use.
I just bought two of them and the chargers on both are getting kinda hot when put on charge, the batteries are cool at touch though. Is that normal or is something wrong with mine?
Update…. Under certain conditions, i.e. full speed in fast gear, when drilling and trigger released suddenly, the auto brake comes in and stops it so quick that the inertia in the outer sleeve of the metal chuck causes it to release it self. I contacted DeWalt and they arranged for it to go back to service agent, it was collected free next day, repaired free, and returned within 7 days of being collected. A new transmission was fitted, this has cured the problem.
Really good brushless drill. Used extensively since purchase very happy. Go through brick easily, struggles a bit on metal but gets the job done
I use it for every day work a great drill plenty of powe
Great bit of kit. Was a little sceptical at first but been using it work on stainless steel and it hasn’t skipped a beat. We have the xrp 3 speed drills and this happily keeps up and a hardy metal chuck too. People on here writing reviews are very silly. It does state quite clearly it is a body only drill. That means no battery no charger or case. You can get all that for a model that is a brushed drill but it is no good compared to these brushless models
Bough this as a started to get the 2 5a XR batteries.
The drill itself is great – a little heavy for lightweight work but not too heavy for all round use. The magnet and hook super useful as are the three lights. There are SO many versions of these drills so it takes a lot of work to find out the right one with the features you need and the best price. This was the best one I could find.
Comes in a case which is sturdy, 2 batteries and the charging unit. Now use the batteries for my jigsaw and circular saw and at 5A all the grunt and longevity I need.
I had a dewalt drill burn out recently. This model replaced it perfectly, batteries were compatible and is a much more powerful drill.
Excellent power, battery life and quality of the operating parts of the drill. The plastic casing around the grip area isn’t very well designed though, had to put tape around the grip to stop it from cutting into my finger.
I have one of these been using it day in day out for five years,its a great drill. It’s been battered mine and still works like new. Has the fastest speed compared to any makita and Milwaukee drills I’ve used and this feels solid to use. Perfect if you’ve got big hands too.
Perfect tool for what I do and a good price
Great drill use it with 5ah batteries I already had lasts for ages
A very sturdy drill for the money I’ve got 6.0ah flex volt batteries so plenty of powe
My drill was broken in 2 month time but the costumer care where very good and helpfull, I sent the drill back to them and after 1 week new one came, so i am very happy with costumer care. About the drill, it fills very solid and powerfully will definitely recomend. Thanks
A l’usage cet outils se rvle rsistant, fonctionnel et constant dans la performance.
Cette perceuse fait aussi visseuse sans problme.
En contrepartie : le poids. Au bout d’une journe il se fait sentir.
En revanche, aucun souci en milieu extrme. L’outil reste linaire en fonction.
En dfinitive, un excellent choix pour qui souhaite ne pas se soucier de ses outils.
Bought this after a lot of R&A about which one to buy- haven’t regretted it so far, touchwood! Great build quality and performance. Got some heavy DIY done around the house. Better value for money as compared to Makita etc. DeWalt also offers a 3-year warranty if you register your product online.
Had subsequently hired a professional for a bigger project and was pleased to see that he too used this very model- and this is a guy with 20 years experience in the trade!
Work well take all the abuse I give my tools. Work with it everyday and had dropped off ladder and still worked ok
This was excellent value for the money very pleased with the tool use Dewalt all the time for years now as a professional in the Building trade.
So far so good, Used daily for work, no issues mainly used on setting 2 for drilling through metal.
Warum legt sich ein Rentner (Heimwerker) nach vielen Bohrmaschinen nun so ein Teil zu?
Man(n) gnnt sich ja sonst nichts! Im wahrsten Sinne das Wortes ein Hammer(!)-teil.
Amazing little beast and super easy to control and the battery seems to never end.
A great drill. A perfect replacement and upgrade for my previous model which gave up the ghost after many years heavy use on site.
Perfect size. Weight is very nice. Strong and powerful smaller then most. Definitely recommend. Hasn’t been beaten by my other drills yet!
Easy to work with powers through most stuff can’t complain.
Love dewalt items and this is no let down, the drill works great and very fast delivery with prime enabled. Definitely recommend this product. You won’t be disappointed.
handliches Gert, das auch nach langem Gebrauch noch anstandslos funktionie
Great powerful drill, I have an older one for years and this is so much better, highly recommended
Fantastic drill. Great battery, power and balance. Highly recomended. Used most other competitors. Will be sticking with dewal
Powerful little drill for it’s size. Can’t go wrong at this price.
Brilliant price of kit. Replaced my 6 year old Dewalt drill. More output yet 2/3 the size.
LED real bonus too.
Bonne prise en main mandrin solide facile serrer. La percussion est efficace. Cette perceuse peut servir pour le bton occasionnellement, elle est suffisamment puissante. L’aimant porte embout est super pratique. Bref, du trs bon matos, je recommande. Mieux que le makita ou bosch pro qu’il m’a t donn d’utilise
i wanted a drill that can occasionally make a hole in a concrete wall or ceiling. And it does the job. Had to apply some force, but that’s ok.
Great tool and performance. Very quick delivery and service overall.
I have several Dewalt Tools and this joins the collection. Lightweight and powerful, just the job. Thank You”
The only downside I experience is that drill bits come loose – I have heard this from other people. I don’t know if I am just not tightening the chuck properly or if is a design issue. Nevertheless, it is a fantastic drill
I received the drill next day after order and it came with absolutely nothing but if this means a price like this for a Top of the range item I’m very happy with that.
I used the drill straight away on a project I’m doing and found it to be crazy fast compared with my old DeWalt drill and very responsive while also having a precise speed control on the trigger. The drill is also much shorter than my old drill allowing it fit into smaller spaces.
Really really happy.
2 years on. This drill is absolutely great! Never fails, lasts for ages on a 2 ah battery. The most impressive feature though is the hammer drill, it can get through some pretty challenging masonry jobs. I was putting up some framing in my garage and I was fixing the frame to the concrete floor and started using by makita 240 masonry drill but soon realised the dewalt was more than up for the job and favoured the dewalt for ease. I would absolutely not do without this drill. I have had some cheaper versions and all I can say is get this!!
A brilliant unit I have used it on a few jobs now and find it grea
Already had the impact driver so had an idea what to expect, I have slowly upgraded all of my kit to dewalt brushless. This drill is the dogs! Packs some serious power when needed but thanks to the brushless technology it can be delicate too. Batteries last forever as well
I’m quite impressed with that drill. Will go trough 15mm steel without problem. Great for that price.
an excellent power unit, comfortable and well balanced. Build quality first class.
Good value for the money arrived in time and exactly as per descriptio
Good quality, powerful battery drill with long use per battery.
Good delivery from supplier.
Exactly what I was looking for.
Purchased this item for my husband. He has only used it oncertainly so far and is delighted with this product. The key factor for him is its light weight. All the drills that he had in the past were heavy and out dated. This one is light and comfortable to handle.
