Great Toolkit!
By Jason
My wife recently got me this for my birthday (I know guys, what a score - a wife that buys you tools). I had only asked for the circular saw that's part of this kit, but she's heard me go on more than once about not having a hammer drill, so she killed 2 birds at once with this kit. I'd owned the DC759CA kit (1/2" drill + sawzall) for nearly a year, and definitely got great service out of it. By getting this kit rather than just the 2 pieces, she saved some pretty nice $$ right off..Everything in the box works great. While I've not had occasion to whip out the reciprocating saw from this kit yet, it's got a couple of cool features my old saw didn't. First, the XRP batteries, so it lasts longer, second - you can mount the blade sideways, rather than just up & down. Neat.The drill has sick amounts of torque and speed. It's great.The circular saw - the tool that started it all.. Went right through 4x8 sheets of plywood & lattice like butter.Haven't had reason (yet) to use the light, but it seems neat.The only knock I can think of? I'd rather have a bag than the big molded plastic box.So, what happened to the old tools? They've found their way over to the church for use on mission trips. Hey, they're almost new, why not?

Dewalt 18V tool combo.
By A. Thomas
I bought this set a couple of years ago, and use all of the tools regularly. The first and foremost bit of advice is this: don't compare these to corded tools. This should go without saying, but to set realistic expectations, battery-operated tools simply can't perform at the level of (or for the duration of) their corded counterparts.That being said, the kit does come with a quick charger (about 2 hours for a full charge) and a second battery, so you can tackle large jobs without long charging interruptions.The drill gets used pretty much daily, and I've never had a problem with it. It's got plenty of power, and the clutch comes in handy when screwing into delicate items. It also has 2 speeds for greater versatility and control.The circular saw slices its way through boards as swiftly and eagerly as my 120V Craftsman saw -- of course it won't tackle that many without changing the battery, but you knew that already...The reciprocating saw is one of my favorites too. The fact that it is cordless makes it irreplaceable in certain circumstances. I've put aggressive blades on it, and pruned 3" branches off my maple trees. I've also chopped through some pretty thick stainless steel lag bolts with the hack saw blades. Hold on tight -- this thing has some torque to it!Lastly, there is the flashlight. When I purchased this kit, I thought I would never use it. Strangely, I find that I use that thing more and more. It is very convenient, adequately bright, sits upright on its own base (which is the battery), and can wrap around pipes, etc. to accommodate odd-angle lighting.The carrying case is pretty much your average run of the mill blow-mold plastic box, but it does make a great storage container. Overall, I gotta give this 5 stars; I would be mechanically helpless without this set. Well, maybe not, but I sure would miss it!

Great combo kit.
By T.G.
I should mention up front that I bought these tools to have a reliable set of tools to work with on projects around the house, so they will not see the amount of wear and tear they would if they were purchased by a contractor. Hence my opinion is based upon what I use them for.I purchased this set on the recommendation of a friend. So far I have found the battery life to be very good, with two batteries anytime that I have needed a second battery it has been fully charged, though most of the time I can do multiple projects on one battery.The drill has plenty of power to drive screws or drill holes, including into pressure treated lumber. I cannot comment about the hammer function as I have yet to have an occasion to use it, but if it is anything like the 14.4 volts DeWalts I have used in the past I am sure it will go through concrete like butter.The reciprocating saw has done everything I have asked it to (as long as I had the right blade.) From tree trimming, to cutting wire shelving, to minor demolition it has worked flawlessly. It is light weight enough to handle easily and for long periods of time.The circular saw has cut through anything I have put in front of it from 2x4s to pressure treated lumber to landscaping timbers and 3/4" plywood. The cutting is quick and smooth. It is lightweight enough to work with in just about any position you might find yourself needing to make a cut.I have not yet had a chance to test out the the light included in this combo kit. If it works half as well as the rest of the tools I am sure I will be happy with it the first time I have to work under the sink, in the attic, under the house or after sundown.One correction to make to the product description, it states "the four-piece combo kit comes with . . . a soft-sided carrying case." Thankfully this is not the case it comes with the hard plastic case pictured on the page. I shudder to think what conditions the tools may have been in without the hard case; UPS was not very kind to the package, thankfully nothing was damaged.I would not hesitate to recommend this product to anyone I know. I was also happy with how quickly it was delivered after I placed the order.
