Title: Never again
Product review: I got this drill for Christmas 2000, so I have owned it approximately 1 1/2 years. I have built one set of lower kitchen cabinets and set up forms to pour a garage floor and have primarily used it to drive screws. For the past year it has been trying to quit. Approximately 1 year ago it wouldn't go in reverse. Then it magically repaired itself and worked fine. About six months ago it wouldn't go into high speed. Again it straightened up and worked again and today I took it out to drive some screws and the thing was dead. And the batteries were fully charged. I had to break out the Bosch 18 volt. For a contractor grade tool it isn't as good as it should be. I am disappointed in the quality for a fairly expensive drill. I doubt that I will buy Makita again. Milwaukee or Bosch for me.
