Is this kit good for a homeowner or only for pros?

It suits both. The compact size and light weight help casual users, and the brushless motors and 20V MAX platform hold up to daily professional use.

How does it compare with DEWALT's full-size 20V MAX combo kits?

This kit is shorter and lighter, so it reaches tighter spots. Full-size kits typically bring hammer mode, higher-capacity batteries and more torque.

Can I use larger 20V MAX batteries with these tools?

Yes. Both tools accept any DEWALT 20V MAX lithium-ion pack, so a 4.0Ah or 5.0Ah battery extends runtime at the cost of some balance.

Does the drill have a hammer function for masonry?

No. The DCD794 is a drill/driver only. For concrete and brick you need a hammer drill or rotary hammer.

What comes in the box?

The DCD794 drill/driver, the DCF809 impact driver, two 2.0Ah batteries, a charger, two belt hooks and a soft kit bag.

What chuck and bit sizes does it take?

The drill has a 1/2 in. keyless chuck for standard drill and driver bits. The impact driver uses 1/4 in. hex shank bits.

What reviewers say

Owners and reviewers rate the kit highly for its compact size and the impact driver's torque, and many call it a good first step into the 20V MAX line. The most common complaint is battery capacity: the 2.0Ah packs drain quickly under sustained drilling and driving.

What people mention

SizePraisedOwners repeatedly note the drill's short body gets into cabinets and between studs where larger drills won't fit.
TorquePraisedThe impact driver is described as driving long deck and lag screws without stalling.
Battery runtimeCriticisedThe included 2.0Ah packs are said to drain quickly during continuous drilling and driving.
BuildPraisedBrushless motors and the overall feel are described as solid and durable for daily use.
Carry bagMixedThe soft kit bag is handy for transport but seen as thin protection next to a hard case.

About the DEWALT ATOMIC 20V MAX Brushless Cordless 2-Tool Combo Kit with (2) 2.0Ah Batteries and Bag DCK225D2

This kit pairs a compact drill/driver with a compact impact driver from the DEWALT ATOMIC COMPACT SERIES, both running on 20V MAX lithium-ion batteries. The DCD794 drill/driver is 5.88 inches long, which is the shortest 20V MAX drill/driver in the line. The DCF809 impact driver produces 1,700 in-lbs of torque.

Both tools use brushless motors, which deliver more power and longer runtime than brushed motors. Each tool has an integrated LED work light for dim workspaces. The drill/driver has a 2-speed transmission and a 1/2 in. chuck, and the impact driver has a 1/4 in. hex drive and runs at 3,200 IPM.

The kit includes two 2.0Ah batteries, a charger, two belt hooks and a contractor kit bag.
