Overall Feedback:
81% positive
89% appreciated the long-lasting battery life, but 11% found it drained quickly
I recharge the battery after finishing for the day, but never have to switch batteries.
I was able to complete the full staircase demolition with perhaps three charges as the battery charge operated for a very acceptable duration.
This drill works great and still does. The batteries are great and last a little heavier. I love this drill.
I found that one of the batteries was dead when I finally used it, even though I had bought it over a month ago.
83% appreciated the durable and rugged build, while 17% experienced breakage
The battery has a bit of wobble when shaken and the directional switch is loose. The plastic quality is also questionable.
Despite its great performance, the ergonomics of the impact driver are not the best.
The handle of the tool has been poorly designed and manufactured.
88% found it easy to use, but 12% found it difficult

83% liked the comfortable grip and design, while 17% found it awkward

At my age (late 70s), a lighter impact driver is a welcomed feature compared to my drill.

The impact driver I used is almost half again as fast as Dewalt's DCF886.
The 3-way power selector is nice to protect plastic items I am working on.
