Title: Dewalt = Black and Decker in a yellow dress
Product review: B&D bought Dewalt to tap into the 'professional' image market. The Chinese factories that make Dewalt are making Black and Decker side by side. Now that Dewalt has moved into big box retailers, they are focused on hitting the price points Big Box wants. Another annoying feature of Dewalt is that it does not provide torque ratings for its drills so that you can compare them to other brands. You cannot compare a particular model Dewalt against Milwaukee, Makita, Hitachi, etc. until you actually use it. Fortunately, most retailers give you 30 days for evaluation. BTW, the DC759KA is the little brother to the more powerful DC720KA. As Dewalt finally follows the industry into Lithium Ion batteries, expect prices to drop for this older NiCD technology.
