Amazon.com Review
Imagine the feel of 470 inch-pounds of torque in your hand. That's what this awesome drill/driver delivers in the lock-up position, powered by a 19.2-volt battery. Because of the two-speed gearbox, you've got drill speed ranges of 0 to 500 rpm and 0 to 1,500 rpm. Its 1/2-inch chuck is keyless, and the 20-position clutch takes care of drilling into all kinds of material. Porter-Cable's drills are among the best on the market; you'll never regret a PC purchase. But here's one more reason to go with this model if you're in the market for a cordless drill/driver: the interchangeable Grip-to-Fit handle inserts. Having grappled with tool handles that were too big to control, we think this system is a great idea. There are manly sized grips included, of course, but for the woman woodworker or cabinetmaker, welcome to a delight--small grips! This package also gets you two batteries, a charger, a bit, side handles, and a case. You just can't go wrong. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Summary: Handheld drill is tough and has good features 2008-04-22
Comment: This drill has a lot of torque, solid feel, and seems durable. We've used these in our lab for many years and abused them quite a bit, and they've come through great. I do wish it had bubble levels mounted in the casing on the side and on the opposite end from the chuck, like some Craftsman drills do. Batteries charge fast and last a long time.

Summary: professional grade 2007-07-09
Comment: As I have come to expect, this is another really great tool from Porter Cable. Very strong drive and what appears to be really good battery life. The cordless chuck even has a "lock up" feature that automatically locks the gears when you are manually changing bits (ever wrestle with the other kind?).

Summary: Very happy buyer 2005-10-26
Comment: This drill has great power. We are building our home, and this drill is handling every job we use it on with ease. It has the greatest torque of any drill we saw, and enough power to do any task. We highly recomend this product.

Summary: Does not hold up to hard home use. 2005-04-25
Comment: I bought this drill as a kit with the 6" saw and have been very disappointed. This drill replaced an older 14.4 V drill, which I used professionally. The 14.4 was a superior product. Even though I only use it at home, the 19.7 runs rougher, sparks a lot and has a no-brand chuck that seizes up.(unlike the Jacobs chuck on the 14.4) Even once you brake the chuck loose, it has a tight spot that after a few turns feels tight again. The only advantage the 19.7 has over the 14.4 is the battery release.

Like other users on this site, I have gone through many batteries. I have burnt up 3 batteries and one charger in 4 years. I don't even use the saw much, so the batteries have not been abused.

The only positive I give this product is the power, which saved the drill from getting one star.

It seems that nobody makes a quality cordless drill anymore and everyone has downgraded their products for Home Depot/home owner sales. Is it a coincidence that Porter Cable drills lost quality when they started having someone else build them overseas?
