I need something with true variable speed.** A: It definitely does not have a gradual start, as some have indicated in the reviews. The lightest first contact in the trigger yields around 300 RPM's unloaded on my drill (I checked with my touch-tach). With the level of power this drill offers, even at this lowest trigger position the drill won't stall without a large amount of load. If you need delicate low-speed operation such as fastener driving, look for a smaller drill (perhaps a 3/8" VSR?). If you need a drill that will work continuously poking 3/8" to 13/16" holes in up to 3/8" thick steel as I did, this is your drill. **Q: Has anyone found a good case for this drill?** A: I just use a generic tool bag for the drill. **Q: Any masonary bit included ?** A: I purchased the drill only, so I do not have a hands on answer regarding the drill bits. However, the drill bit collection packaging does not indicate a masonry bit (and I would not expect one in a generic small bit collection). **Q: Will this drill be able to bore out 1 1/4" holes in 4x4 studs?** A: Have not done exactly what you need, but I have used it to bore 1" holes in 2x4s no problem. It's quite powerful and the "handle" helps w/ stability. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A drill that actually does what it's supposed to do! *by on Reviewed in the United States August 2, 2012* I'm a frugal shopper, which means that if I can find a used item at a yard sale for less, I would rather do that. Well, after four drills that couldn't drill through galvanized steel, I realized I had to get serious.I bought this drill based on the reviews, and to be honest, I was a little worried at first. I thought the drill would be too big and I wouldn't be able to handle it with one hand (120 lb female here). But I needed something that could handle the job, so I went for it.Boy am I ever happy.First, the box size surprised me. I expected something gigantic, but it's not.Second, the weight surprised me, I can and do use this drill one handed.Third, the quality really impressed me. I immediately put it to the test, and started drilling holes in galvanized steel. No problems there. The drill holds up, does it's job, and my project is just about done.It does have a chuck key, but I actually prefer that. Some of the work I have put the drill through is tough, and I feel much more comfortable knowing that I have the option to use the chuck key to make sure that I don't have to re-tighten halfway through the job.The handle is convenient, and you don't have to put it on. And it's reversible if you're left handed. I have used the handle a few times, but mostly I don't.The fact that it's corded allows me to have the drill do harder jobs with out worry that juice will run out. I just get an extra long extension cord, and I don't have to worry about recharging batteries.About my only complaint is that there is not a speed control setting, but really, I can just control how far I depress the button, and that seems to do the trick.I am extremely satisfied with this drill, and it's capabilities. It's a good little powerful tool. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quatity *by on Reviewed in the United States August 2, 2026* H🌻 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lot of power. light. durable. for the profi. no lo speed *by on Reviewed in the United States December 17, 2012* Con: The minimum speed on the drill is about 400 rpm, not zero. This was pointed out by another reviewer. He found out it is a design issue. So, This is a 400-1200 rpm VSR. So it is NOT good for steel, or finely finished drill holes.Pro: Pretty much all of the reviewers here are correct. This is a LOT of drill. Huge torque -- use both hands. Keeps going and going and will shut itself off if you overpush it. Very tough. very reliable. But it is surprisingly light, about 4.9 lbs. I drilled hundreds of 3/4" spade bit holes in studs for running 10 ga romex. The drill barely got warm (the spade bit got glowing hot and had to resharpen 3 times, LOLs). I have a big stucco project coming up, and I have a funny feeling this will make a perfect mud mixer.Edit 3.17: We have using this drill almost daily for mixing and massive multiple hole drilling for 4 months. We also like to use it for wire brushing or sanding. the overload circuit on this is a lifesaver. we run this drill for hours on end and until it shuts itself off for 10 mins. then presto, it starts right back up without a hitch. the price on the 210 has increased unfortunately, but it is worth it, bumping our review up to 5 stars.Edit 3.23: We are buying 5 more of the 210's. it turns out you can buy them used very cheaply, not necessarily on Amazon though (hint hint nudge nudge). ## Frequently Bought Together - DEWALT Electric Drill, Pistol-Grip, 1/2-Inch, 10-Amp (DWD210G) , Yellow - DEWALT Titanium Nitride Coated Drill Bit Set, Pilot Point, 21-Piece (DW1361) - DEWALT 20V Max Cordless Drill/Driver Kit, 2 Batteries and Charger Included (DCD771C2) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/81624250-dewalt-electric-drill-pistol-grip-1-2-inch-10-amp](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/81624250-dewalt-electric-drill-pistol-grip-1-2-inch-10-amp) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-03*
