This thing is tough
5 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using this driver for about a year and a half, with a 6ah battery. I get about a week off one charge for drywall work, and a full day per charge driving 3" screws into treated wood. It slid off a 2 story roof and came completely apart, pieces everywhere... I put it back together, and it's STILL WORKING. Skips a beat here and there, but I can still build an entire deck with it.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This gets the job done and then some!
3 years ago
Lightweight in design, the 20v max brushless impact was made for those long days at work. And no need to worry about the battery life, as the lithium ion battery stays charged for a very long time. You'll get tires before this impact ever does. It drives even the most stubborn screws with ease. I am so happy I chose DeWalt. I will absolutely continue to buy DeWalt in the future.
No, I do not recommend this product.

. Just used it for the first time expecting to be blown away. Just disappointment.
Gun gets 3 times hotter In an 1/8th of the time as the brush does. Cant even touch the gun with your hands. To chage bits out.
Impact starts before i even get my lags or screws started. Maybe that extra torque isn't such a good thing for smaller jobs. Hope they get that adjusted sometime.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Never disappoints
4 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had this tool for 4+ years. I use it for far more then probably what it is meant to be used for and it just keeps going. It’s been dropped, rained on, caked in mud, ran harder then it probably should and still today there’s not one thing wrong with it. Excellent product along with all dewalt tools I own. Dewalt leaves me no reason to try a different brand
Yes, I recommend this product.

Awesome Tool!
5 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the non-brushless awhile back as a starter and with all the work I do now I decided to retire it and buy the brushless version. World of difference. I wish I would have done it sooner. It makes the job go quicker and saves battery. Would recommend spending the extra money to buy this even if you’re only a weekend warrior.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Nice and Light with quick lock
5 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I work in the powerlines trade and was needed a impact. I was in a tight decision with the dewalt and Milwaukee. For the price I went with dewalt and I am not disappointed. I hooked up that bad boy up to a 5ah battery and literally lasted me weeks. It's nice and light, the LEDs are bright.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great tool
3 years ago
This tool has been a big help on the job site this week installing cabinet in both a kitchen, and a bathroom vanity! The thought places make it a nice tool to use to screw the cabinets together! It is also nice to use to get screws between studs where I previously used a 90 degree drill!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great for new Apprentices
2 years ago
I bought this impact driver when I first started my apprenticeship a few years ago. The price is awesome for someone who is just starting out and needs a good reliable impact driver. As a plumber it was hard to stay away from Milwaukee but DeWalt’s reliable tools keep me coming back!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great tool
4 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I bought the impact driver I had no idea how useful it would be. It has great power. I use it almost daily. I like it so much I bought one for my son and son in law. They both love it. If it ever wears out, I’ll be quick to buy a new one. Most of my tools are DeWalt.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Worked once
a year ago
Used it once and it sat a couple months. Went to use it again and it did a couple screws then when you pull the trigger light flashes once but motor doesn’t engage. Tried different batteries same issue. Looks like repairing would cost as much as buying a different driver.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Great impact gun
5 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m a mechanic in the automotive industry and this impact does the job especially the simple things we have to take off such as heat shields, injectors, coil packs and much more, one of the greatest buys I bought and will be buying more similar products in the future.

Great compact impact
a year ago
This is the best compact impact drill I have owned. I am a plumber apprentice and I use it all the time to put straping up for pipe. It hasn't failed me even after a few drops from a ladder. I highly recommend plus the price is great.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Super smooth drive. No issues with lag screws!
a year ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This impact is amazing! Driving lag screws into treated lumber is not only easy but you can’t feel torque and feels smooth and easy. 3 1/2 inch screws into wood is super smooth. I would highly recommend Atomic over standard impact.

Very tough...
5 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought the set years ago and it had a 1/4 impact. Never thought I’d use it as much as I did, and I never thought it would last as long as it has. I have 3 now and I don’t go anywhere without one. Thanks for making a tough product.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Super driver
4 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the 20V set almost 2 years ago. They are incredibly durable and have held up well through a lot of tough use. Don't know what I ever did without an impact driver for so many years, besides strip screw heads.

Great 1/4" impact driver!
5 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this impact driver about 6 years. It is my goto tool. I've never had a project around the house or yard that I had to use a second battery. The power in this 1/4" driver is fantastic.

Throw away your screw driver and buy this.
