After returning a refurbished unit that did not have variable speed, this new DeWalt was exactly what I wanted. Great variable speed, dual range, right-angle drill with two batteries, charger and case. who could ask for anything more.
I found the body to be pretty large and clumsy, which kind of defeats the idea of getting something for working in confined spots. I had one of these for about a year. Because it was hard to hold and manipulate, I had a hard time driving screws without slipping the bit out of the head frequently. I own lots of Dewalt cordless tools, and have been generally very happy with them. I use the heck out of my standard 12v drill, so this right-angle drill seemed like a natural addition. After a while, I just gave up on using this and found other ways to get the work done. (If you're interested, I have used a Milwaukee corded "close quarters" drill and really like it).
I got this on closeout at a local home center for a steal. Good battery life. Didn't think I would really use it much but I now find myself using it all the time. Great for small or awkward spaces. Fits well and balances nicely in the hand. It's pricey but very handy.
