Score: 78/100
DEWALT DCF845B
Score: 82/100Rankings
The DEWALT DCF845B is a brushless 20V MAX XR impact driver delivering 1,825 in-lbs of torque and 3,400 RPM with 3-speed settings. It offers a balance of power and compactness, though the tool-only configuration requires separate battery purchase. It is best suited for professional contractors needing versatile fastening capabilities.
The WORKPRO 20V Cordless Drill Combo Kit is an entry-level power tool set featuring a 220 in-lb drill driver and a 1150 in-lb impact driver, designed for DIY homeowners and light hobbyists. It offers strong value by including two 2.0Ah batteries, a fast charger, and a comprehensive set of screwdriver and drill bits in a lightweight package. While it offers value, it lacks the durability and performance of premium brands, recommending it only for those prioritizing cost or specific aesthetics over professional-grade reliability.
