Whether you're a professional craftsman, plumber, electrician, woodworker, or just someone who enjoys working on DIY projects around the house, one tool you can't be without is a good cordless drill. Finding the right drill can sometimes be tough though, which is why it's always a good idea to do your research and read some of the cordless drill reviews available online from other consumers.
What are some things to consider when looking for a good drill?
Impact Cordless Drill
Power - Depending on the type of work you do will determine whether you need a high-powered drill, or just a drill with adequate power. If you only do small projects around the house, you can get by with a simple 12-14.4v drill. If you do professional work, then you're going to want a 15.6-18v.
Battery Life - One of the most annoying things has to be working on a project only to have your drill run out of battery on you. Make sure when you're looking through cordless drill reviews, that they mention battery life and that the drill you're considering has good reviews regarding the battery.
Comfort and Grip - If you're going to be holding something in your hand for a while and drilling holes through hard material, you definitely want it to feel comfortable in your hand. On top of comfort, you want the drill to have good grip so that you don't accidentally drop it and risk damaging the drill.
Size and Weight - If you work in small, tight areas, then you need a drill small enough to fit into them. Weight is also another factor to consider because the heavier the drill is, the more tired your arm will get as you try to hold it up for longer periods of time. Good cordless drill reviews will mention the weight and size of the drill you're considering.
There are of course a few more factors you want to look at when purchasing a cordless drill, but those four above are the main ones you need to consider.

Built to deliver fast, dependable results, the DCD970 XRP 18-Volt Cordless Hammerdrill/Drill/Driver offers 450 unit watts out for effective drilling and fastening in a wide variety of materials. Its patented, three-speed, all-metal transmission matches the drill's performance to the task at hand, resulting in quicker completion of stubborn jobs, along with improved run time and reduced wear and tear on the tool's motor.
This tool also offers a heavy-duty, 1/2-inch, self-tightening chuck with bit-gripping strength. When placed in hammerdrill mode, the tool delivers 8,500 to 34,000 beats per minute for making holes in masonry. In addition, an L.E.D. work light near the trigger provides increased visibility when you're working in dark or confined spaces, and the tool's well-balanced body and mid-handle, comfortable grip help keep you in control at all times.
Compact, Heavy-Duty Impact Driver
The DC825 18-Volt Impact Driver is capable of delivering 1,330 inch-pounds of torque for superb performance in a wide range of fastening applications. Its variable-speed trigger allows you to move between speeds ranging from 0 to 2,400 rpm and to deliver 0 to 2,700 impacts per minute for quick, results with minimum effort pushing in the fastener as it sinks into the material.
In addition, this impact driver's frameless motor features replaceable brushes for improved durability and extended tool life. A durable, magnesium gear case and an all-metal transmission also contribute to the tool's exceptional durability. And the driver's heavy-duty impact mechanism directs torque to the fastener without causing the reactionary torque kickback seen when using a drill. This protects you, your tool, and your work.
Trademarked XRP Extended-Life Battery System
Two XRP Lithium Ion extended run-time batteries keep all of these tools running at optimum levels. They provide up to 40 percent more run time than standard batteries and over 2000 cycles for nearly 2-1/2 times the life of traditional nickel-cadmium batteries.
