Great drill, open box, and came with BAG at first.
4 Stars
Great drill, open box, and came with BAG at first.
The box was open on arrival, but appears unused or very lightly used. I specifically chose this kit because it came with a hard case, but it arrived with just a bag. I contacted Amazon support and they made a nice arrangement to for me to get a hard case so that worked out fine.The drill itself is excellent--compact and balanced, and more powerful than I expected. Battery life is great: I made around 90 holes 1/2", 4 holes 1.25", and a 4" hole in 3/8" plastic, drove a dozen deck screws, and the battery was still at 4/4 bars. I'd give this 5 stars if not for the issues mentioned earlier.
