Customers are mixed about the grip of the drill. Some mention that the hand grip comes in handy so that the handle doesn't snap their wrist, and the front handle allows them to give good support.

It is heavy and will need two hands to operate for long jobs, and that the accessory handle is impossible to use in the hammer mode.

"...Drill got a little warm towards the end but no overheating issues...." Read more

"...It does get hot if you're using it steady for awhile, but any drill I've had got hot too. I think I'm going to stick with DeWalt for a while." Read more

Works well, until it doesn’t. Died a premature death.

Works well, until it doesn’t. Died a premature death.
Died a premature death after an easy unstressful short life. Bought it 6 months ago and used it to install 6 inch LED recessed lights. Cut 54 holes with it before it suddenly stop working. As you can see, I was even using a dust shroud with it. I take care of my tools, including this one. Still looks new but doesn’t work at all. Still under warranty, but a pain in the butt to have repaired and be without a drill in the meantime.
