The drill works great! having already owning one before after 8 years of reliable service my drill finally failed but my drill charger and batteries still work fine as well as my reciprocating saw and circular saw, I just needed another drill, that's why I purchased it and I am totally happy with it and hope to use this for many more years!

I recommend Porter Cable products because I have used them for years. However, the used drill I received smells like there is an electrical short in the windings when it is turned on. For that reason I am not happy with my purchase, hence my No answer to the "Is it good quality" question. I purchased this drill to replace an identical model that I had used for years without any problem, (it was stolen).

This is my second drill/driver. I find it easier to have a drill bit in one and a screwdriver bit in the other. As opposed to constantly swapping them. This also complements the rest of collection. Circular Saw, Light, Duster, Impact Driver, Sander, Grinder and Reciprocating Saw. I chose Porter Cable because of its high quality history. This replaced a Dewalt 9.9v and an old Craftsman 18v. The Dewalt's batteries didn't last long and the Craftsman did, but the battery replacement cost as much as a new one. That's when I decided on this family tools. I do a lot of woodworking and these come in handy and do the job. All with no cords. I have 3 batteries too. Which one can be fully charged before the other too are discharged.
We use the drills every day for about 20 to 30 minutes without stopping, with a wire wheel, to clean machine parts. The drills have about a 6-8 month life span at this rate of usage. Perhaps they die from abuse other than just run time, like being dropped, but I am unsure. I just keep buying replacements. the batteries last way longer than the tool in our case. I think it would be a fine tool for the average home owner, but I would not want to make my living with it without having a back up unit. For the price, this is very realistic.
