Metabo HPTCordless Drill | 18V | 1/2-Inch Keyless | Sub-Compact | Brushless Motor | Lithium-Ion Batteries | Lifetime Tool Warranty | DS18DDX

Variable speeds and lots of power, easy to handle and light enough to use all day if you need

It is great. Light weight and very easy to use. Small and powerful just the right combo and the extra batteries make life so much easier. I didn't buy the hammer drill but I should of spend the extra money

I wanted another Hitachi drill because the one I bought years ago has been so good. Apparently they were bought by Metabo. This drill is almost identical to my old one. So far it works great and is even a bit of an upgrade from my original.

I am a big fan of Metabo tools. Reliable for everyday use on the job, and priced well. This drill is compact, plenty of torque and has and multiple light and speed modes.

Replaces a cordless Hitachi. Uses the same batteries which is a huge plus since I have really bought into the Hitachi cordless tools (impact driver, sawzall, work light,flashlight, cordless drill). This is much smaller and lighter than the drill it replaces and it seems to last much longer on a charge. The LED light is kind of useless since it's positioned in a way that is doesn't really light up where you need it. The last drill took a beating for years so I hope this one lasts just as long.

THE DRILL IS POWERFUL FOR A SMALL DRILL. IT IS EASY TO HOLD AND WORK WITH.

I have several drills, some very fancy and expensive. I bought this one to live at a workstation for a specific purpose, but it’s quickly becoming my favorite all-around drill.Nice ergonomics, great chuck, and enough battery life and power for most things, but also it’s just… nice. It feels like an extension of your hand. I’d rate it significantly better than Makita, dewalt, etc.It’s not a real Metabo, it’s a Hitachi. Metabos are made in Germany - big $$$ and built like a Mercedes. This is more Honda civic.If you’re a homeowner/hobbyist, this will do everything you need and do it very well. If you’re a professional, it’s not going to be your only drill, but betcha you’ll like having it around.For $100, it’s excellent.

It's not bad, great for household projects very light weight.

Excelente marca ,buena herramienta para trabajo industrial,es ligero y de buena potencia,las baterías con indicador de carga ,nos permite trabajar continúo.

Todo es tal como en las imagenes,el maletin esta bastante bien trae bisagras y no lengüetas lo q lo hace mas durable el material d buena calidad,el taladro tiene muy buena potencia como destornillador exelente,es mi primer brushless y estoy mas q satisfecho,lo uso en carpinteria y esta perfecto para mis nesesidades como profesional,las baterias en su primera carga tardan aprox. 3hrs ya en las cargas siguientes 30min aprox. e trabajado 4 dias continuos sin problema d carga aunq x experience recomiendo nunca dejar agotar x completo las baterias pues esto causa menor durabilidad con el tiempo yo las recargo cada 3 dias y todo perfecto,la luz ilumina perfecto para lo q se requiere,sus2 velocidades lo hacen mas versatil,nada negativo q agregar,exelente relación calidad-precio pues esta a un presio mucho mas bajo q un truper q en mi experiencia d trabajo son una porqueria d herramientas,conosco muy bien la marca metabo y es para mi la mejor a nivel mundial,aunque esta me parese mas una Hitachi con el hombre metabo hpt,pero todo perfecto estoy muy contento con esta herramienta recomedada al 100.En lo estetico me gustan mas los black n decker pues su empuñadura tipo sable es mas comoda,trae porta puntas q es bastante util sus cargadores son mas practicos y los taladros tienen un sistema de expulsion d las baterias lo q las hacen mas practicas,pero esto es solo un punto d vista en cuanto a lo estetico q para mi es importante d ai en fuera,todo exelente la mejor compra q puedes hacer

Comfortable in my hand and has lots of power.

Bought this drill for my grandson and he loves it!!

Glad to hear that the name change from Hitachi to Metabo did not result in a change of product quality - I bought this drill to replace a dud Ridgid, and also because I have had another Hitachi battery-powered drill for many, many years and it has performed very well. I also have a Milwaukee which is adequate and robust, however a design problem puts the reverse switch in an awkward position when requiring pressure to drive the screws. The Milwaukee is heavy, but at least the battery life is good. Our shop also has a Porter Cable 20volt drill, but it is a bottom-end name. Given our history with Hitachi, we would rate Metabo as slightly better than Milwaukee, and much better value for dollar spent. Don't waste your money on Ridgid, Skil, Craftsman or PorterCable.
