Title: BAD product for the professional
Review: I run a small construction company in the Chicago area. My DeWalt 18V hammer/driver passed away(6yrs old) and I needed a new drill pronto. I purchased this drill from a local box store about 3 years ago. I use the drill daily on the job. Since I purchased the drill it has been in for service 3 times!!! All 3 times the transmission and the clutch were replaced. B4 Christmas, once again, the transmission burned up. The battery charger sounds like a 747 taking off; I later learned the noise is present due to the charger being defective. The molded case is one of the worst I've seen in 16 yrs in the construction industry. My case is literally held together with duct tape. This tool will probably suffice for the weekend warrior but for a professional it sucks (unless you like to wait 3 weeks out of every year to have it serviced)!! I picked up the new Panasonic 21.6V and must say it is far SUPERIOR to the makita.
