This is a fairly expensive set but you are getting high quality tools that will last you a long time. The drill has an enormous amount of power and with the right bit could drill through just about anything. If you're coming from a smaller, lower voltage toolset you will be shocked at the amount or torque, speed, and/or power this drill will put out for you. Take it easy on those screws or you'll strip them real quick. <br /> <br />The recip saw is great, allowing you to position the blade at two angles in either direction to get the blade in just the right spot. The quick release on the blade is also outstanding allowing you to adjust that direction and angle in a matter of seconds without ever putting the tool down. <br /> <br />The circular saw to me appears to be a little bit on the slow side RPM wise but it's ripped through just about anything I've thrown at it without a problem at all. <br /> <br />The light, well it's a light. It is very bright, the flexible neck is kind of cool but there's not many positions you can get it in without the whole thing falling over. <br /> <br />The batteries in this, while not lithium like many other sets still perform wonderfully. So don't turn down this set simply because of that, you should also consider that your investment is in the tools and not the batteries and when the time comes for replacement of the batteries you can easily upgrade to lithium while keeping these tools.

These tools have more power than a homeowner will need and will keep a professional going for years. I own many DeWalt tools and am happy with each one.
