for the price, you can't pass it up. [Posted on 2005-12-13] i picked up this set about a year ago and have been extremely satisfied with its build quality. with a little over a year of use, everything still works flawlessly and the batteries are still as fresh as the day i bought the set. i personally use the drill the most, followed by the jig saw and the circular saw, and lastly, the sander. i haven't really found much of a use for the brad nailer as of yet. one thing i feel is very important to mention is the use of the flast light... i dont believe its truely intended to be used as a flashlight, but rather a means of completely discharging the battery before recharging it; at least thats what i use it for. BOTTOMLINE: its the perfect set for the weekend worrior.
Good tools, but the batteries are poor [Posted on 2007-01-05] I have two sets of these tools. I have used both sets for a couple of years and they work fine for the price. The drawback is that the batteries go bad after about a year and you can not find replacement batteries easily. When you do, they are around $100 each!! I have four total batteries and two of mine have gone bad (50%). Delta does not even list the tools on their web site and I have gone to many stores with battery in hand only to be disappointed that I can not find a replacement. I would recommend a tool set from a company that actually claims the tools on their site and offers replacement parts and batteries.
don't buy it [Posted on 2007-07-07] These tools are made in China and the batteries are no longer available ANYWHERE! So once your batteries die - you are done.
If you want confirmation - go to any dewalt service store and they will tell you the same thing.
battery options [Posted on 2007-08-06] This is a fantastic set, but I've had battery problems, too. However, you can take the battery to any place that refurbs batteries, like batteriesplus, and they will swap out the cells for a price. You end up with a more powerful battery in the end. Finding another shell to have a third backup battery would be nice.
Great set of cordless tools for the casual user. [Posted on 2007-10-19] Although it's made in Taiwan, the USA firm of Delta, of woodworking fame, has designed a set of relatively high quality cordless tools for the homeowner/casual user. They are not commercial grade. But have stood up to my weekend warrior abuse. All seem to have good torque and hefty feel, yielding accurate results.
For the price, I'd choose it over competing Ryobi and Sears kits.
