Description of Factory-Reconditioned DEWALT D21008KR Heavy-Duty 6 Amp 3/8-Inch Drill Kit with Keyless Chuck
Keyless chucks can sometimes be a mixed blessing. On the one hand, bit changes are quicker and more convenient, but bit slippage can also be an issue at times. That's not the case with the DeWalt heavy-duty 3/8-inch VSR drill kit with keyless chuck. DeWalt has equipped this tool with a two-sleeve ratcheting chuck that locks shut and holds bits firmly in place. The drill weighs just 3.5 pounds but can power its way through metal, wood and masonry, with bit capacities of 3/8 inches, one inch and 1/2 inch respectively. A 6 amp motor delivers powerful torque and speeds of 0-2,500 rpm, while an advanced brush system automatically stops the tool when the brushes wear out, preventing serious motor damage. The drill is comfortable to hold and comes with a built-in bubble level that lets you know your holes are straight and true. All in all, a very solid performer. -- Carl ThressTools and Hardware Reviews of Factory-Reconditioned DEWALT D21008KR Heavy-Duty 6 Amp 3/8-Inch Drill Kit with Keyless Chuck
Customer Review: The little drill that could.....
Summary: 5 Stars
I have a lot of experience with 3/8" drills. I have burned up and worn out several light duty consumer models. I have a 40 year old Milwaukee 3.5 amp 1200 RPM 3/8" drill that I have horribly abused for years and haven't managed to kill it yet. It is the most overbuilt tool I have ever used. It is the standard that I use to judge other drills. I bought the DeWalt drill to get the convenience of the keyless chuck and 2500 RPM capabilities on a powerful 3/8" drill. This is a great tool. It is quiet yet powerful. The variable speed control is the best I have used, it is very linear making it easy to hold the desired RPM when drilling. The built in bubble level is a useful feature. The keyless chuck is smooth and easy to use. The click action seems to secure the drill bit with a lot less effort than the keyless chucks on my cordless drills. Changing drill bits is very quick and easy, its the best system I have used. The storage case is generously sized so you don't have to spend all day trying to get the cord in the box. I like it a lot. The only thing that I can think of that might be improved is the plastic finish on the drill. It seems to have a very dull flat finish that attracts dirt and hangs onto it. It was a little smudged when it arrived and it hasn't improved any with use. I have a couple of DeWalt circular saws with yellow plastic motor housings and handles and they seem to have a glossier finish and don't seem to get as dirty and they are a lot easier to wipe clean. But that is a very minor issue, after all it is a tool, it is meant to do work and in the process it will get a little dirty looking. I don't have enough experience with the DeWalt to claim it is equal to the Milwaukee but it seems to perform as well, changing the bits is much easier than my old Jacobs style chuck, and its sale price was less than 1/3 of what a new Milwaukee would cost me. In my opinion this drill is a winner. I don't think you can find a better 3/8" drill for twice the price.
