About DEWALT 20V MAX XR Brushless Impact Driver and Hammer Drill Combo Kit
Overall Feedback:
93% positive
81% praised the long-lasting battery life, while 19% found it depleted quickly
I have personally experienced that the larger battery packs have a long battery life and can be used for professional purposes without frequent recharging.
I have found that the tool is lighter, has longer battery life, and includes a light, while performing similarly to my old 18v tool.
I can easily use the larger battery pack for professional purposes without running low on battery as it lasts forever.
I highly recommend the 5 a/hr batteries as they provide days of life and power.

90% praised the rugged and durable construction, though 10% experienced wear and tear
I have been using the tools heavily for a month and just had to recharge them for the first time.
I found the quality to be as expected with plenty of power. The speed chuck holds fairly well and the battery life is good.
I am amazed by the overall quality of the set, especially the improvements in brushless motors, battery life, and LED placement compared to my old 18v drills.
I compared the build quality of Ryobi with DeWalt and found that Ryobi feels like a higher quality tool with better balance, smoother and quieter.

85% found the led light to be bright and useful
The LED lights on both drill and driver are highly useful with settings for brightness and duration. In my dimly lit garage, they have proved to be a godsend while building shelves.
There are three LEDs right at the collet which means no shadows from my hand.
The LED lighting on this power-tool-combo-kit is highly useful with settings for brightness and duration. It's a godsend in my dimly lit garage while building shelves.
The adjustable light is great - it's strong, wide, and can be used as a flashlight for 20 minutes.

90% found the tools to be powerful and efficient
I was able to drill deck boards for several hours and the tool drove 2.5 inch screws non-stop.
I effortlessly put 3 inch construction screws through plywood into joists.
In the low speed, the tool has a lot of torque and a fast bit in the highest speed.
The power-tool-combo-kits perform similarly to my old 18v, but are lighter, have longer battery life, and include a light.
93% liked the compact and organized storage case
Even with larger battery packs, the tools have a nice balance and are not too heavy for my use.
The power tool combo kit performs well with belt clips, lights, battery power indicator, and a ratchet chuck.
I can easily maneuver the tool in tight spaces due to its size.
96% appreciated the clear and concise instruction manual, but 4% found it confusing
I found the tool easy to maneuver in tight spaces and utilized its size and power to handle 80% of the nuts and bolts when I recently did a complete remove and replace of the front suspension of my Honda CR-V. In combination with my monster DCF899P1 impact wrench, the DCF887 made the job dramatically easier, making it much quicker and nearly stress-free.
It is easier to use than air tools, but due to its form factor, air ratchet gets more use around the car.
I have not used the hammer option yet, but the drill has enough power to drill through anything with ease.
The larger battery packs last forever. I have experienced the battery life myself and it can easily be used professionally without running low on battery.

92% appreciated the comfortable grip and design, while 8% found it fatiguing
When tightening the chuck with your hands, the finely textured steel surface on the chuck head can burn through your skin.
