Fantastic!!:
This was the best purchase I have made in a long, long time. I have had two other brands of cordless drills in the past, and they were never ready to go when I needed them for my crafting or light household projects. This Makita is great because it holds it's charge forever, and if the battery does go down it only takes an hour to charge it !!!

Makita 6217DWDE Purchase:
I'm pleased with this drill. I bought one seven years ago, and have used it for remodeling projects as well as odds and ends from decking to installing steps on trees for bowhunting. When one battery failed on me, I started shopping, and noted that one person bought more than one kit since the bulk of the cost is for the batteries. It's nice having two drills for a job so I don't have to switch bits and drills. Product was here on time and undamaged. I'm pleased.
I've always likee Makita ttols:
This is a nice drill kit and the drill works fine; I have always liked the Makita tools I bought. But I really bought the kit for the batteries and new charger. The batteries on my 6 year old Makita impact-driver finally died and the economics of replacement batteries is absurd. It only cost nine dollars more to buy the kit with a new drill than to buy just two new batteries alone - and you really need two at a time. Makita, DeWalt, Amazon, anybody - are you listening?
Cheper than buying new batteries:
Purchased the whole drill with 2 batteries, charger, case for just a little more than I could buy 2 batteries for my old Makita. These batteries work in my old drill so now I have 2 drills, two chargers, two batteries. What a deal!
