Good drill-bad chuck May 18, 2008

I have owned several Makita products and have been a satisfied customer over many years.
This was a replacement for the older version of the same drill, but unlike the older Makita cordless this one fails to retain a grip on the bit after even a small amount of use. This is true whether it is being used to drill holes or as a screwdriver. In the mode of unscrewing it is completely hopeless. Given this info I would definitely not buy this product again.
This is not to say that Makita makes bad products, but that there is a serious flaw in this model.
 Great Drill November 19, 2008

Got this drill as gift. Very impressed so far. The drill has a nice balance to it and has plenty of power for any task a homeowner will throw at it. I like the fact that the drill is small in size and light weight. This is not an industrial grade contractor tool. It is geared more towards the average homeowner. And it fits that bill perfectly. The batteries charge in about 30 min. The 1.3 ah Ni-cad batteries included in this kit dont last as long as the latest Li-ion batteries do but those batteries also cost twice as much too.
If you are looking for an industrial grade tool with max power and run time look elsewhere. If you need a cordless drill to tackle weekend projects and the "honey do" list this is your drill.

ordered this item from tool barn because I couldn't find it on amazon. next day saw it on amazon and had my doubts after reading other review. I have had a couple of Bosch 14.4v and they do take alot of abuse. Can't count the amount of times Ive dropped them from 10 feet and up. both lasted for building one house a piece. The last one the batteries and chuck were shot. I also have an 18v ridgid which has served me well thropugh this last house and is still holding up good except that both batteries are now dead.I was loking for a more compact drill to carry on my belt that would be less obtrusive. Considered the hitachi, but it just didn't look sturdy enough,so I ordered this Makita. Fell in love the minute I opened the box. Perfect feel, easily drives 3inch screws and it's compactness really faciltates working in awkward spaces. I havn't dropped it yet from 10 feet but I get the feeling it will survive. This is my cordless drill that I have ever owned.I only now wish I had ordered it with the flashlight to compliment it, but who knew I would fall in love. I would hope that Makita might take notice of my unsolicited testimonial and recognize it's value by sending me one
