I bought them and love them.
Looks awesome
Looks like another option to try in the 12 volt field. Nice review Eric
Thanks, RC
I like the Idea of a light weight less power 18v or a 20v impact I use a lot of pocket holes and don’t need a lot of power to drive in a screw but don’t want 2 battery platforms #TIACREW
Your right, these are perfect for a ton of uses. I love the size and weight.
Very cool drills #TIACREW
Love them. They are small and work great.
Looks like a nice set, would like to try them out sometime.
This new tools rock. Makita did a great job with them.
I like the idea of these sub-compact tools, but I didn’t like how they felt in my hands when I tried them out at Home Depot. I thought it might just be a issue of only using Milwaukee drills and impacts before, but I received an XDT111 impact driver kit for Christmas and it feels fine. I’m going to have to try them again the next time I go to Home Depot and see if I can’t figure out why I didn’t like them.
I’m trying so hard not to buy these. My Bosch 18v is pretty compact and does the job I need it to where my Makita hammer drill is too big and heavy for the job.
I wish I would of wait a few week later because I got the 12v before the sub compact got release
I’d love to try them out….I’m a builder and these look really nice for setting doors and sliders,cabinets…
I have craftsman junk drill and, after your reviews, I am switching to makita as soon as I get the money to get the set that I want.
Played with them at HD, they’re badass
This review made me purchase. A-hole…. Lol now i love then more than my Dewalt compact literally. I was all Milwaukee and Dewalt and now started a 3rd platform that i don’t plan to grow but well worth the purchase. ##tiacrewteamdan # sorrygriswold lol
I just bought two kits today. I am amazed at how smooth the powertrains are on these tools. Ordered a Oscillating Multi Tool also! They got me hooked.
How much is its torque?
Can it drill into concrete?
