best 18v drill January 4, 2009
i am very happy with the standard drilling end of the drill well made and sturdy. the only thing i can gripe about is the hammerdrill mode it was too slow for me. i am spoiled with a corded bosch hammerdrill. overall get this xrp drill.
 Heavy Duty Drill October 14, 2008
I haven't actually used my new Dewalt DC925KA, but after comparing it to my old Sears Craftsman 15.6V Industrial drill that it replaced, there is very little comparison. It is a work of art and very well built. The batteries appeared to have some charge from the factory, and she's powerful enough to darn near twist your wrist if you're not ready for it. Most reviews were great, and I have no doubt that this will be an outstanding drill for a couple of decades or so. Borrowed a buddies old and abused DC759KA after my Craftsman died, and I was hooked, so I ordered the 925 figuring I would use the hammerdrill feature from time to time as well. My only gripe: no screwdriver bits were included, so it's a good thing that I hung onto my Craftsman bits. An integrated level would also have been a nice addition. You won't be disappointed, however.
Strong, Durable, Versatile. August 3, 2008

I acquired this tool by accident: I was buying an 18V reciprocating saw and the drill came with it. But this tool easily took over most of my drilling needs, even some of what I used to do with a corded tool.
Most eye-opening experience with the DC925: I needed to drill some vent-stack holes in stud wall fireblocking and top plates. This tool was able to drive a 2-1/2" Milwaukee Self-Feed bit through doubled 2x4s in half a dozen locations -- and that's with a dull bit and a two year old battery (fully charged, but old ones aren't as strong).
Among the other high-torque jobs this drill has accomplished, it regularly runs an 18" x 5/8" ship-auger bit through 8 to 12 inches of framing lumber many times per hour, can handle multiple deep holes with a 3/4" auger, hammerdrills pilot holes for Tapcon anchors and for tri-nailing wood onto concrete, and often runs abrasive flap wheels and discs for metal finishing. Oh yeah, in a pinch (no power nearby) it has even mixed two to three gallons of drywall mud or thinset mortar. Not bad for cordless.
As for durability, it has fallen ten feet onto concrete a number of times, and has generally been treated roughly as if it were not made of plastic. Still works like new.
Power and then some May 3, 2008
Pro's - Unbelievable torque! Make sure your work is secure and that you have a good grip; if a bit locks into your work (especially steel), you're in for a ride. Good adjustments for different work. I don't use the hammer feature often so I can't speak on that.
Con's - A bulldog (heavy). Not the best for working overhead or arms out horizontal for long periods of time. I have lighter drills if I need them but they don't drive or drill nearly as well.
Overview: I have several different brand 18V drills, some are very good but I dedicated myself to Dewalt 18V tools. I currently have 11 different Dewalt tools (and I don't have them all) that operate off the same battery platform...no other manufacture offers that.
 Powerful but a bit confusing April 7, 2008

I bought this drill to replace my 15 year old trusty Makita 12volt cordless. For outright raw power I think it's great. If you're out there driving a single size screw or drilling through just about anything, it will do a good job. With adjustments for clutch, speed, and (confusing) a feature for screwing or drilling or hamerdrilling, it is versatile, no doubt. However, that's where my praises end. First, it is heavy....not a big thing if you're drilling or screwing straight down. My job, as a garage cabinet installer, calls for veried angles, however, and it can be cumbersome. The other gripe I have is that I have to make sure I have all three adjustments correct if I switch from a 3" screw to a 3/8" drill bit. Personally, I'd buy the Makita again if I had it to do all over again.
