DEWALT 1/2-in VSR Single Speed Corded Hammer Drill - 8.5-amp Motor - Dual Mode - 360° Side Handle is rated 3.3 out of 5 by 17.
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Dewalt wd511 hammer drill. I’ve bought this hammer drill only a few days ago, so, I can’t see for sure, if it is good! So far, I’ve only used it for installed my closet door in the basement, which, including drilled a pilot hole on the concrete floor and put the screws in. Based from that, I like this hammer drill!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from More than 10 Years and Still Running Like New! I came to this site for a drill case and decided to do a review of the DW511 drill. I have had this drill for more than 10 years. I mostly use it on small projects around the house and for a few bookshelves and cabinets that I built for home use over the years. I do not know how it performs on large jobs or with constant use. But, it has never failed me. For my purposes, this has been an outstanding investment and I'm very pleased with the consistency and quality.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works Great I bought this drill to be able to drill into block wall in order to frame a basement bathroom. I have used it for many other projects since. I think that I can switch between the hammer drill and regular. The drill is fantastic and very powerful.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Seems to kick out of gear when drilling a hole I bought this drill about 6 or so years ago, I would not have drilled 200 holes with it, ( wood and steel) and is now kicking out of gear when drilling holes and I tried calling call centre to confirm if its under warranty and just got frustrated going through that process.. Looks like only 3 yr warranty

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Poor quality Purchased this drill in 2008 for my vacation home and used it twice for tapcons, it went back the box and there it sat. I had a project that required 16 1/2" holes in concrete, it failed after 5. I pulled out my old blue competitors brand drill that has been used at least weekly for the past 25 years, repaired the cord and finished the job with no issues. When I finished the job I disassembled both drills and the design and quality differences were obvious. I have bought blue corded tools all my life and swayed in this case for a few bucks. I guess that lemon yellow colour should be a warning.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from LASTED 6 MONTHS I RARELY USED THIS TOOL BUT AFTER A FEW TIMES OF USING IT IT BEGAN SMOKING AND STOPPED WORKING. THE SERVICE WITH DEWALT WAS FANTASTIC BUT THAT IS NO LONGER THE CASE. SLOWLY LOSING FAITH IN THE BRAND IVE INVESTED AROUND 10K IN TOOLS WITH.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to use This is a very well made product. It went through the concrete "like "butter". Love this drill.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Didn't work out of the box This drill is garbage. Straight out of the box the switch didn't work and the drill won't go into hammer mode. A $100 drill. And it can't be returned.
