CleveTrusclair says "Wow..... what a drill!" about Craftsman Professional 20 volt Lithium-Ion Drill/Driver with LED Work Light

I was looking for a kick replacement for my hammer drill that was stolen on a job site and was in pretty bad need of my drill. I replaced a Dewalt 18volt with this one I was think it was going to be short term but now that I have been using it. I can't justify spending the money. I have a extended warrenty and any local store and take care of me if I get in a squeeze. Thanks Sears for keeping the quality high on equipment and prices good for hard working people like myself.

I bought this Craftsman Pro 20V lithium drill combo (drill, drill handle, light, charger, batteries, carrying case) over a year and a half ago and am glad I did. It replaced a smaller voltage Craftsman Ni-Cad model as the batteries just wouldn't last.

I have ongoing projects of replacing some decking and the fencing in my large backyard. The projects stretched out over time and it is nice to be able to pick up the drill and be ready to go regardless of how long the drill has been sitting idle. The lights on the front of the battery indicating the charge level are great for determining how much juice is left in the battery. Charging is so rapid that even if I were to run out both batteries, I'm back in business in no time. (Good excuse for a break, hehehe.)

The included bit that comes with the drill (flat head on one end, phillips on the other) is OK, but the phillips end doesn't last too long. It's easy enough to buy a replacement. The drill chuck is convenient and easy when...

As the new drill on the job , My Craftsman drill was used by several work partners for two days and it won every contest against Dewalt, Hilti and Makita for strength , runtime, balance and the longest lasting charge. I install commercial cabinetry in Hospitals and Schools 10 hours a day. This drill seems to be the best available at a good price. My super owns most of the drills available and in his 19 years of installing cabinetry this Craftsman is the best drill he has used. I bought this so no one would steal my batteries like with the more poplar drills and now there are gonna be other Craftsman on the job real soon! This drill has all the strength you need. It is not possible to hold the chuck while operating, it is that powerful. The weight for a 20 volt drill is good and the big "footprint" lets you set this down with little attention while you are working.The work light is amazing. This drill is more than any homeowner will ever need and will be excellent for heavy construction......

I choose this set to replace my older Craftsman Pro set that I had had for over 5yrs. I compared this set to a comparable RIDGID set both NiCad and Lithium. I found the features of charge time, weight, and battery duration to be much better with this set. I like the lighter weight of the Lithium batteries in this set and found no loss of power over the charge time of the pack. One battery powered the drill for the day (10hr.) where I installed blinds, drapes, bath finish items, and other misc items where both screws and drilling were required. On another day, I had no problem with drilling for electrical wiring with 8ft 3/4in spring bits through fire brakes and top plates. I was very impressed with the consistent power of this 20v set which I believe is better than my corded drill. I do concur with another reviewer on the switching from hi to low torque. I found that I had to check the drill before use when switching it - however, my older Craftsman Pro drill had the same issue on occasion.......

I am not a professional builder but I perform many building projects on my ranch. I expect tools to be ruged, perform well, and be easy to use. The Lithium-Ion 20v cordless drill built a 50'x50' barn/workshop with me using all screws (no nails). The drill has plenty of torque for drilling metal and wood. The drill drove 2 1/2" deck screws without problem, 6 to 8 hours a day. It charges quickly and the charge lasts the workday. The drill has fallen at least a half-dozen times from the top of a ten-foot ladder onto a concrete slab without a problem. I like it so well that my son is getting one for his birthday....

I bought this drill as a replacement for my 9.6 v craftsman cordless. the main reason I bought it was because of the Li battery. I was tired of going to use the old drill and having the batteries run out after a couple of minutes. The first thing I noticed what the locking chuck, which is a vast improvement. the bit is now securely held in place with a twist of the chuck. The battery also holds up nicely and charges fast. The drill has plenty of power. One thing I do not like is that the hi-low switch is not as smooth as my old drill. Sometime it get stuck in between positions but this is not a big deal. Also, one time when I was enlarging a large hole and the drill was shaking violently, the battery fell out, but I think this was an extreme situation. I do miss the wrist strap hat my old drill had. Overall a great buy....
