When DeWalt's most popular tools appeared on Amazon's October Prime Day, tool-loving online shoppers went into a frenzy.

This DeWalt tool kit includes the brand's best-selling cordless drill, an impact driver, two 20V 1.3Ah batteries, a single-slot 20V battery charger and a durable bag to hold it all. The 3.6-kilogram drill has a half-inch chuck and two-speed transmission, 450 rpm on the low end and 1,500 rpm on the high end. The impact driver weighs just under 3 pounds and has a hand-loading quarter-inch hex chuck with a powerful 2,800 rpm that can punch through fasteners in metal, concrete and more. All are equipped with LED lights for better visibility. The batteries are fine for small projects, but anyone looking to take on a day's work should grab the brand's best-selling 5Ah model.
Of the tens of thousands of customer reviews that praise the quality, value and ease of use of the toolkit, many are happy that it does exactly what it advertises. “Fantastic combo tool kit for everyday use,” said one customer. “It has made an absolute difference to my construction. From day one, this set has never let me down, it delivers outstanding performance every time. The cordless drill and impact driver is strong and efficient, so it solves the most difficult tasks with ease. Whether it's screws or in hard materials drills, everything is handled flawlessly… Worth every penny and then some!

Others saw the light after experiencing the convenience of DeWalt's replaceable batteries. “I love this battery system,” wrote one customer. “Easy to use and great quality, will last a lifetime with proper use. The battery system is the real seller here though. I've managed to get a few other Dewalt tools and lights that all run on the same batteries…great quality, multiple sizes to use with different tools. The lighter, smaller batteries help keep the weight down, and the larger batteries work great when needed for long periods of time, such as lights, which is why I've switched from Bosch, Makita, and From Milwaukee to Dewalt.”
Whether you're looking to update your kitchen or bathroom this winter, or just want to hang a new piece of wall art, this DeWalt drill and driver set is an undeniable steal at just $129. Since it's only available for a limited time, it's best to get one soon while the savings last.
