For the price this set is a great value. If you want a smaller set that is a bit lighter you may want to consider some of teh lithium ion tool sets. The Dewalt tools have held up well to use well above that of a home owner and an occasional clumsy moment of being dropped. Of course the hammer drill and saws get the most work, followed by the angle grinder. I am not a professional, but do a great deal of home improvement and repairs on the side. I bought this set about 3 years ago and I don't leave home for a job without putting those 2 bags in my truck. I have used all of the tools in the set to some extent. I have gone now into my third set of 2 batteries and still am happy with the set.

Enough wasting money on less expensive, lesser quality cordless tools.I finally bit the bullet and went for the 9-tool Dewalt combo and could not be happier.Don't get scared by the price tag. Add up the individual piece prices, the dependable Dewalt quality and name and it's a no brainer.Step up.

I have used this set of battery power tools now for 1 year and all prove to be everything one needs. I have also used the 1/2 drive impact to change tires along the highway.

I used it with success in a couple tight spots, but still have found myself occassionally needing to use a hand powered right-angle screwdriver as you definitely need 3-4 inches of clearance to use this drill, and even more if the area is far recessed (as the battery orientation increases the clearance needed if you need to reach in far to some opening).The cut-out tool is perhaps the biggest diappointment. The convenience of not having to negotiate around a cord when making involved cuts is very helpful. Again it has good power for short usage at least with a fully charged battery but I am not sure what battery life would be like for extended use.The right angle drill suffers a bit from being too big. Not to worry though as it requires no tools and is quite secure once properly seated.The light is handy, and one case where the heavy battery is an advantage - it is easy to twist the lens/light in various directions and still have it sit rather securely on the floor.I consider two batteries the minimum needed for this many tools, and two bags is nice, but realistically I seldom go to a job where I will need all 8 tools at once.

I will not likely spring for an impact rated socket set, so if anyone wants to buy a brand-new cordless impact wrench please let me know ;_)The cut-off tool works OK for door jambs, haven't used it for anything else.The jig saw is great. Overall battery life for the less demanding applications seems good. Power is good and battery life seems good too. While I was using a bit intended for masonry, I am not 100% sure it was specifically designed to be used with a hammer drill.The circular saw is OK - I'm not sure what battery life is like, but it is convenient on occassion. Overall these tools all have performed well, however buying the full set is not necessarily as cost-effective as may seem at first. I have not used some of the more demanding tools extensively so cannot comment on the battery life for those.The hammer drill/driver is heavy (as are all the tools once the battery is attached) and the "hammer" mode does not seem to work all that well. It has good power for short usage at least with a fully charged battery.The reciprocating saw is very handy - have used it in a couple places where running a cord would have been very difficult. It really is a cut-out tool, with no variable speed adjustment.

The blade locking mechanism is quick and easy, but can be a little fiddling around to get the blade properly seated. I bought this set specifically to get the right angle drill as part of my first serious cordless set. I used it to drill a few holes in some cement and it has not seemed to be a tremendous improvement over a normal drill. I had hoped this would be a cordless replacement for my (corded) dremel tool, however the lack of speed adjustment really limits its usefulness.The impact wrench I have little use for, and only realized after the purchase that most normal sockets are not rated for impact use.

Even the flashlight that I didn't think I'd use is great, powerful light and no more crapped out batteries.Battery life seems good though I haven't owned the set long enough to see any problems.All in all a great set for a great price. Once you've got it you'll wonder what you did without it. 3 speeds plus the hammer feature.The circular saw is awesome, lightweight and lightening fast, cuts through stuff like butter. Its a great tool though. The only tool I haven't used yet is the cut-out tool but this will probably save the day on some project eventually.As a woman one thing I really like is the shape of the battery; it is easy to get your hand around to release it from the charger one-handed. Have had the 9 piece set for about 4 weeks now and its so far met all my expectations. My last Bosch battery was so wide I couldn't do that and it was very awkard.On the down side the hammer drill/driver is a bit heavy compared to the Bosch, not so heavy that I can't use it but heavy enough to make my thumb ache after a day screwing down siding. Storage bags are very practical, much better than hard cases.
