Here's another 2p worth...

The DeWalt cordless drills are indeed expensive. However, so are the
rest of the good ones, the (professional) Bosch's, Panasonics, etc.
Bosch have two ranges, the green consumer stuff and the blue
professional stuff. IMHO, the green stuff is no beter than B&D these
days. The blue stuff is very good, well worthy of consideration. Given
the relative prices of the professional stuff, I'd be inclined to go for
the DeWalt.

Go to a specialist, not a DIY shed, and buy a drill you can be proud of.
Here's a thing about DeWalt stuff - I have one of their big routers, a
DW625EK. I've stopped looking at routers now - there's nothing more I
aspire to. That doesn't happen very often.

Hi,
I've got a DeWalt 'powered' drill and it realy cuts the mustered - my
only problem now is finding drill BITS that can keep up - so yeah I rate
the DeWalt stuff. Admitedly i've not got a cordless but if I was going
to get one - it would be a DeWalt. This is over the standard Black And
Decker Stuff (although iirc B&D and DW are the same company - just both
ends of the
scale)

end of 2p worth
Wayne.
