Physical & Build
The DCD709 is DeWalt's compact 18V XR brushless combi, a short-bodied 2-speed 65Nm drill at 1.2kg that gets into tighter spaces than the full-size models. Wood capacity is a modest 30mm, reflecting its compact focus rather than heavy boring. We rate it a tidy choice for first and second fix in confined work; if you need more reach and torque, the DCD805 is the full-size sibling.
