This specific DeWalt model Combo Hammer drill was purchased as a replacement for what was my second DeWalt drill, that replaced the one I purchased more than 20 years ago that I used to build our house. This has been purchased as a replacement based on the outstanding performance of the previous 2 x DeWalt drills. I acknowledge this specific model has been out on the streets for a while and may be discontinued by DeWalt but it has, like the famous 'Bren Gun', stood the test of time and combat. This model is a significant improvement with improved capabilities with 3 speeds and it has a better ergonomic feel. The build is typically excellent, plus although initially thought as 'gimmicky' it has a powerful LED light that is now indispensable whatever the task. It is heavier than previous DeWalt combo drills and I like the addition of a removable handle for the heavier external tasks all manufactured to DeWalt's imperious design standards. I also purchased a power stack 5Ah from the same supplier but the jury is out for the time being. It performs brilliantly on the XR 5Ah /$Ah / 2Ah batteries I already own. Early days yet but typical DeWalt quality, design and performance. If it fails to meet expectations I will let you know, but suspect you wont be hearing from me. Highly recommended professional hand tool.Read full review

I've had 2 of the DeWalt dcd996n drills and many more other models. I love DeWalt for there durability and power but there chucks do not work right, tighten them up and 20 seconds later the drill bit just falls out, and the opposite too where the chuck is tightened and will not release the bit so I have to use channel locks to open the thing.

I already had a DeWalt 18volt drill but it used the old style batteries with a stalk. So I thought I would move on as I had other products which used the new shape batteries. Therefore, I thought I would buy a somewhat more powerful drill. What a difference. It's about the same weight but oodles more power and torque. Drilling the hoops for my new polytunnel was a breeze. Love it

You can feel the quality in this drill the moment you pick it up. I bought it as it is reputed to be their most powerful cordless drill and it certainly hasn't disappointed. You can feel the torque it creates the moment you start to drill and it is wise to use the steadying handle to ensure you don't get a wrist injury such is the power. The in built LED light is superb when working in dark corners and on torch mode is amazing. De Walt for me is certainly the Rolls Royce of drills.

From low speed to high speed it delivers loads of power. I opted for the fast charge unit because of its speed and its ability to charge up to 6Ah but be aware it wont fit in the case. I also bought a Genuine 3Ah & Copy 5Ah batteries separately Great quality product from De-Walt 👍
