I keep seeing the older kit being posted with the DCD996 hammer drill. That's still a great tool but if I were in the market, I'd spend a few extra dollars and get the newer kit.

The DCD999 when paired with a flexvolt battery is much more powerful than the 996.
At 300 this is not a bad deal. I have bought from Acme a hand full of times. Not my favorite vendor. Order tracking is sloppy. Customer service is a joke. I've always receieved my items so there that, but sometimes can take 2+ weeks.
great deal if you look at each piece as $60 each or more than $600 in value if bought separately for half off. i know Home Depot sells this same bundle without the fast charger and 8Ah in battery total (vs 10AH in this deal) for $100 more so this is definitely the better deal.
I have power detect, flexvolt advantage, and regular XR tools.... I wish Dewalt would put more money towards tools instead of marketing.

In reality real contractor grade stuff is brands you haven't heard of and probably not found at Walmart ot HD
Also, as others have said, there exists cheaper packages. And these darn 5ah batteries and the charger have been here 2 for $100 so I highly doubt you are getting your extra $100 worth even with the model#, a charger, some batteries and 30 cents worth of polyethylene (or cloth. Last one at least had a hard case)

I've used and seen their tools first hand. The Ryobi Impact Driver could install fence screws no problem but my Dewalt Drill/Driver could not do the job. The same Ryobi Impact Driver could not drill into concrete exterior wall for a simple screw and we had to use his brothers Dewalt Hammer Drill to do the job.
I did not know the difference between these tools until i saw first hand what each tool could and could not do. because of this i stick with Dewalt. i always thought my Dewalt 18V Cordless Drill /Driver was all i needed and could do everything i needed to do with just one tool.
Different tools do different things but at the end of the day you want the job done right and the first time you get Dewalt. Its everyone's brand of choice for a reason and because of this deal and brand i now own a stronger Hammer Drill / Impact driver than my contractor neighbor (pretty sure his is 18V).

There are several quality levels within each of those tool brands that you mentioned, so your comparison doesn't mean much unless you tell us the specific models of each tool that you are talking about.

Mostly Milwaukee, Makita, Dewalt. Occasionally some Bosch. Hilti is less of a household name but mostly used for hammer drills.
Every once in a while I'd see someone using Rigid or Ryobi but not often. They just didn't hold up as well.

We concluded that most professional tool brands are having to cut cost and quality to get back in the hands to contractors because milwaukee and dewalt are pushing out so many tools and batteries at half the price they're failing to compete.
Hilti quality is sliding and festool is now the same price as milwaukee.
The same this is happening with snap-on.
Grab a Hilti, Festool, or Metabo from a few years ago. They're better than any tool I've used. Feel great in the hand, plastic is perfectly fit from fiber reinforced polymer, the gearbox has zero slack, and the trigger is perfectly smooth and controlled.
YouTube a breakdown of a Metabo or Hilti tool. It's insane.

I ended up returning them after a few days and just sticking with my 414 and 411 grinders, and 996 hammer drill.
I love Dewalt, but in their recent attempts to "improve" their lineup, theyve only managed to step backwards imo. Hopefully, the stop screwing around, and start improving things, because the competition is getting better on almost every aspect.

It was a statement of fact. I said I am satisfied with my Dewalt products. That was more a statement of opinion. But it would appear we agree so wtf are you arguing, exactly?
