Our verdict

For home repairs and DIY projects, this is the dependable, no-fuss drill we would point most first-time buyers to: two speeds, two batteries and a three-year warranty. The trade-off is an older brushed motor and compact batteries — fine for household jobs, but a brushless drill gives more runtime and punch for heavy, all-day work.

Hanging shelves, assembling furniture, drilling pilot holes and driving screws are the jobs most homes need a drill for, and the DCD771C2 is DEWALT's compact answer. Its two-speed transmission runs at 0–450 RPM for driving screws and 0–1,500 RPM for drilling, the motor delivers up to 300 unit watts out, and a 1/2-in ratcheting chuck grips bits firmly. The kit ships with two 20V MAX compact batteries, so one can charge while you work, plus a charger and a contractor bag — and it opens the door to DEWALT's whole 20V MAX tool range.

Why you’ll like it

  1. 01

    Two speeds for two jobs: the low range drives screws with control, the high range is for faster drilling.

  2. 02

    Two batteries in the box, so one can charge while the other keeps you working.

  3. 03

    Compact and light (3.6 lb drill), easy to hold overhead or inside cabinets.

  4. 04

    Joins DEWALT's 20V MAX system, so the batteries and charger also run the brand's other 20V MAX tools.

Great for

  • First-time homeowners and renters building a toolbox
  • Weekend DIYers who assemble, hang and fix things

Maybe skip it if

  • You drill into masonry often (get a hammer drill)
  • You use a drill all day on job sites and want brushless runtime

Questions people ask

Is it really a 20-volt drill?

"20V MAX" is the battery's maximum initial voltage without a load; DEWALT states the nominal voltage is 18 V, the same class as other brands' 18 V tools.

Can it drill into concrete or brick?

It is a drill/driver without a hammer mode, so it is meant for wood, metal, plastic and driving screws. For regular masonry work, a hammer drill is the right tool.

Will the batteries work with other DEWALT tools?

Yes. The DCD771 belongs to DEWALT's 20V MAX system, so its batteries and charger work with the brand's other 20V MAX tools.
