When it comes to brushless impact drivers and power tools in general, DeWalt is and has been the go-to brand for years now.

However, the DCF845 is the new flagship DeWalt 20V Max XR brushless impact driver for fans looking for the highest performance available. It’s very light and when I have it hanging on my belt, my day it’s better because I can rest assure that, it won’t matter the task at hand … I’ll be more than equipped with my DCF887 impact gun. It’s one of those top brands, and to be honest, whatever you go for between the DeWalt DCF887 and the Makita XDT111 … you’ll be just fine. Considering the pricing is very close to the previous version, we expect this model to replace the DCF887 that’s been on the market for years. A precision drive mode offers additional control in screwdriving applications to avoid material and fastener damage.Although both models are made by the same brand and are almost similar in most aspects, the Dewalt DCF887 has a higher speed with more variety to choose from. The impact driver weighs a total of 2 pounds which compared to other competing models is quite light. According to my experience and findings, there have been reported cases of wobbly chucks and a section of DCF887 owners had had to take their tools in to get repaired.

So, if that's the case, we need to have in our kit a power tool that’ll be free from cords and small enough to work where we need it to whilst also packing the sort of power that’ll both surprise and amaze us. Although we do not deny the efforts put into this model to make it less noisy with brushless fans, this product is still a little loud while working.
