I’ve been using battery-powered drills for many, many years but have recently lost confidence in the reliability of the batteries (even the ones with lifetime warranties). I bought the Ridgid 8.5 amp drill and rediscovered the power that only an electric tool can deliver. I first used the drill to auger through two 4x4s (building a small barn on our land) and the drill went through those so fast I couldn’t believe it. This is one strong drill! Of course, I’ll still use my battery-powered drills for certain applications, but when I need power with speed, I’ll go to the Ridgid 8.5 drill. Love it.

not as good as the drill it replaced, no torque setting or speed dial. like the keyed chuck much better than my r5010. replaced the chuck on that drill with a keyed chuck and I am still using it ten years later. but I really like this new drill, and hope it last as long as the last one.

I like this product. I chose it over other options mainly because of the lifetime warrenty, and my dad has one for his construction business and has been very happy with its performance.

Good value for the price and it works for the intended purpose of driving a mechanical auto lift. Plenty of power and I am sure it will come in handy for other tasks around the garage.
