The saw included in this kit has a brushless motor and larger blade size. It’s tough to know what others can compromise on. Although, for a lot of tasks, maybe he’ll benefit from the smaller size of this compact version. I didn’t realize it at first that he might miss the added power and speed range of the premium brushless drill. That kit was bundled with Dewalt’s premium 3-speed brushed hammer drill, premium circular saw, premium reciprocating saw, standard impact driver, and LED flashlight. This kit, model DCK483D2, has a brushless drill, brushless circular saw, brushless 3-speed impact driver, LED flashlight, and (2) 2.0Ah batteries.įrom the link he sent me, it seemed that Mark paid $550 for his 5-tool brushed tool combo kit. Knowing that Mark was doubting his purchase of a Dewalt 20V Max 5-tool cordless combo kit, I gave it some thought and recommended that he look at this 4-tool brushless tool kit instead. (The Bluetooth speaker should come with an AC adapter, and so it won’t hog one of the two included batteries if there’s a wall outlet available.) The “Better Core Tools” Brushless Combo Kit But if I were shopping for someone else, or were a lot less tool-savvy, this 9-tool combo kit is still a very good value. Personally, I think the 7-tool combo kit is the better buy, and it’s the one I’d want. I think this kit would be a little more personally appealing if one of those compact batteries were upgraded to a higher capacity pack.īut, for what it gives up, you get 2 additional tools, a right angle drill, and a Bluetooth speaker. It’s a good giftable kit.Ĭompared to the above 7-tool combo kit, this 9-tool kit has a lesser drill, it gives you 2 tool bags instead of a nice rolling tool box, and it only gives you 2 compact battery packs. This kit is a good value, but it’s more of a “big bang for the buck” combo for those that don’t know what they want or might need. DCD740 Right Angle Drill ( Compare Price).DCR006 Bluetooth Speaker ( Compare Price).DCS355 Brushless Oscillating Multi-Tool ( Compare Price).There’s really no reason for the DCD771 to be on the market anymore, since there’s something better at the same seasonal price point. These days, Dewalt has a brushless drill that’s sold seasonally at the $99 price point, and I’d like to see this kit updated with that model. I’d feel compelled to upgrade the drill and as mentioned pick up a larger battery pack to power those saw’s with. While this might not be the kit I’d personally pick out for myself, it offers a very good selection of tools at high bang for the buck value. Here’s what I said about it last holiday season: Here are some older posts and deal discussions. This kit, DCK940D2, comes around nearly every holiday or Father’s Day shopping season. Here’s the Dewalt 9-tool cordless power tool combo kit that made Mark doubt his recent 5-tool combo kit purchase. You get a very good selection of tools, 3 batteries, and the drill is a brushless model.ĭewalt probably could have gotten away with bundling this kit with only 2 batteries, or swapping the ToughSystem tool box for contractor bags, or giving you a lesser drill.īuy Now(via Home Depot) The Most Giftable Dewalt Combo Kit This looks to be the BEST Dewalt cordless power tool combo kit for $500.
