Tools and Hardware Reviews of Makita DF030D 10.8-Volt Ultra Compact Lithium-Ion Cordless Driver-Drill Kit
Customer Review: Perfect for What It Is
Summary: 5 Stars
I love my Makita LXT211 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 2-Piece Combo Kit; both drills are fantastic, but they are oftentimes over-kill for many of the small projects I have around the house. Additionally, the case is quite large and I end up carrying the case with a bit set whenever I need a drill. I was lucky enough to find the Makita DF030D w/ a bonus 65 piece bit set at a local hardware store. The set included the drill, two 10.8 volt lithium batteries w/ charger, a holster, and a bit set w/ nylon case that folds neatly into a compartment in the drill case. I have had the drill for over a year and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I seem to constantly reach for this drill over my other ones as it is generally the perfect tool for the job.
Pros:
- For 10.8 volts, this drill has plenty of power. Obviously, it's not going to perform like a hammer drill or provider the torque of an impact drill, but it will drive small - medium screws & drill holes up to 1/4" without strain.
- This drill is light and compact. Less than 2 lbs w/ battery. Perfect for any long project where gravity isn't helping you or if you are working in a tight space.
- 2 speeds and adjustable clutch with 18 settings provides plenty of user control, no excuse for stripping screws etc.
- Quick change chuck for 1/4 inch hex shanks. Allows me to change bits and attachments with minimal effort.
- LED light, useful since most of the jobs in tight areas have poor lighting.
Cons: (Minor gripes)
- The holster is a joke. I'm sure it serves its purpose to those who use it, but I'm the type of guy who would rather let my Leatherman rip a hole in my pocket before I clip it to my belt (Same logic with the drill holster)
- The included 65 piece bit set was excellent, but if I lost it, I would have to repurchase 1/4 inch hex shank drill bits and they are not that cheap. Then again, I spent over $100.00 on this convenience item and if you are looking at this review, you are in the market for one too, so maybe $20.00 - $40.00 extra dollars isn't a big deal.
Overall, this is a fantastic drill and worth every penny in my opinion. I think Makita makes the best cordless drills and this is no exception. Buy it and you will not be disappointed.
