Justina Schimmel (verified owner) –
i give the drill 5 starts, however, I give the service that was given a 0! The store associates were rude and not helpful.

Jairo Mraz (verified owner) –
Would prefer the brushless but this has done the job well and was a free add on item for Black Friday sale. Makita’s warranty is that of DeWalt or Ridgid but the product quality is much better
