I have about 10 corded and cordless drills. I enjoy the handiness of the cordless drill, but I love this corded Dewalt.I have a small home repair business, so I use power tools all of the time. After I graduated to the cheap drills, I tried a Makita. It was fine, and handled well, but died after only a couple of years. That soured me on the brand. So the next drill I bought was this Dewalt.It's a workhorse. It handles everything I've thrown at it. Very highly recommended.
