Title: Best mag drill in this price range.
Review: Absolutely great tool. Tons of power, the gibs are nice and snug, all the parts fit…I’ve used a number of other mag drills. Most recently an Evolution and a Jancy Slugger. This is a better tool by far. To those who are complaining about wobble in the quick release either got a bad fit, have damaged/worn out cutters, or just have no idea what this tool is for. The new annular cutters I bought fit perfectly in the quick release and have very little runout. This is NOT a drill press or a milling machine. A few thousandths of runout is normal and acceptable in this kind of tool. That said, it drills VERY true. So far I’ve punched holes in a bunch of 1/4 and 3/8 mild plate, flange and web of a 10W22, and a bunch of smaller stuff. Absolutely zero complaints.Quick release handle is a great feature. By moving the drill body up on the slide you can use the included 1/2″ chuck and NORMAL length twist drill bits. No need to buy a set of stubbies just for this tool. That’s a big deal and a huge savings. Mag base grips well and holds the drill in any position. Travel on the powerhead is about 4″ so plenty to drill holes in as thick a material as you have bits/cutters for.Overall I couldn’t be happier. There are bigger/badder units out there but they are in the $2500 and up price range. For under a grand this is the one.

Title: Great Mag Drill
Review: This mag drill performs great whether using annular cutters or the drill chuck. The 2speed power function is good for your intended application. The magnet holds as advertised. I made a mount for it and use a 4” drill press vise. The oil tank is a bit screwy when empty, but works ok. I don’t plan to use the drill overhead, so am going to solid mount the tank.Overall a great product !!

Title: Best Value Mag Drill on the Market
Review: These things are so handy. Bought one and tried it out in a fab shop and it has worked great so I bought a 2nd one for the guys to use. I didn’t realize how often we’d use it and wish I’d have bought it years ago.Edit: bought a 3rd one now. First one has lasted 3 years without issue besides one of my guys knocking it off the table and bending the arbor. Bought replacement parts and have been using it since.

Title: Update on drill
Review: I had given this a negative review a long time ago because the customer service dept was not super helpful. However, I’ve been using this drill almost everyday for a couple of years and it’s doing great. The magnet is not super heavy duty but for this price it is a great drill for general fabrication.

Title: Great mag drill
Review: This mag drill is awesome. I bought this for my welding department and it is going to save a lot of time. It cuts clean accurate holes that are straight with no burr. The cutting oil system works well. I don’t have to worry about my guys forgetting to apply oil. I would buy it again in a heartbeat.

Review: Very happy with this new addition to our shop. Magnet is very strong once its on. Also, there’s a lot of feature for the price that we bought.Mind if you correct the voltage, it’s not 240V, but its 120V and it perfectly works!

Review: This is an extremely good drill for the cost. I looked at many other makes and found the Dewalt drill the best drill for the price. I have drilled approximately 100, 1/2″ to 1 1/4″ holes with it so far and it has work perfectly! Yes, other drills have a few other handy options, but this works great for me in my shop on the farm.

Review: Great little drill, i purchased this drill for a special project that involved many 1/2″ diameter holes into 3/8″ steel; some in the shop and some on site on a vertical surface. I am happy it came with a regular drill chuck since the bigger “plug style” cutters start around 5/8″. Each hole had to be chamfered also, it accomplished the task perfectly. The reason for the 4 star is i wished it had a depth stop, that would allow perfect chamfers… needless to say a little stop block was made and solved the problem. Even if this a portable drill press, it should have a way to produce multiple holes and chamfers with the same setting.
