The rapid changer has been attached to my drill since I bought it - the rapid changer is a must have item for any Dewalt drill, and if you only need the rapid changer, buy it separately. While I use this kit everytime I use the drill, the drill bits are not sturdy, and about half of them have broken after I used them a few times. The screw bits are excellent and of good quality.
Small Phillips bits round easily and large ones shattered with as low as setting 8-9 into pine & fir.This set would be better offering a snap in chuck to use professional grade drill bits, rather than the 'instant-dull' bits included with this set. This product was purchased for casual use in a non-industrial environment.Though this product bears the Dewalt name, the quality of the package is lacking.
So this set was perfect as a starter set for my carpenter's drill bag. I think the Dewalt rapid load drill attachment is the best around. I have, in the past, purchased separately the yellow box in the set for organizing drill, masonry, and screwdriver bits.
Why doesn't the integral piece of gear(Rapid Load chuck) fit into the kit. Dewalt seems to have missed the KISS boat when it came to this product. I guess the engineers designed this one early on a Monday morning. Ok, items in the set are a good to have around the shop and working around the house. However, I was quite miffed when the set arrived and I couldn't fit the Rapid Load chuck into the case the comes with the kit.
this set offers many of the bits that u need for the around the house tasks, probably wouldnt suit the contracter, but for the handyman it is great.
