De snelspankop van mijn DCD791 boor-/schroefmachine uit 2016 gaat niet meer open ondanks tips van de DeWalt servicedesk lukt het niet. De machine ingestuurd voor reparatie maar toen ik hoorde dat hij altijd gerepareerd gaat worden bij 55% van de nieuwwaarde zonder offerte, heb ik hem weer opgehaald. Voor rond de EUR 120-, heb je een nieuwe! De keuze om weer dezelfde machine aan te schaffen, heb ik uitsluitend gemaakt omdat ik de accu's kan blijven gebruiken. Anders was ik over gegaan op Makita. En de onduidelijkheid over de reparatie kosten draagt hier ook niet aan bij. Gedurende de jaren heeft hij altijd naar behoren gewerkt, vooral hoog koppel maar wel véél speling op de diverse (onder)delen.Jammer dat dit dan het plotselinge einde is.... Zo'n machine moet toch langer mee gaan! Jammer DeWalt!

Ik kocht een DeWalt accuboor en binnen 6 maanden viel mij op dat de boor met regelmaat willekeurig een boorrichting koos (zonder dat instellingen werden veranderd). Nadat hier een paar gevaarlijke situaties door ontstonden nam ik contact op met DeWalt voor een oplossing. Inmiddels zijn we 3 maanden verder en is er niemand thuis. Dit totale gebrek aan after-sale service zorgt er voor dat ik NOOIT meer iets van DeWalt koop. Als je een probleem hebt kun je het apparaat het beste weggooien (en een ander merk kiezen :-))!

Brush cut 6inch chain saw just quit. Tried to cal. That’s a joke. Tired texting that’s a joke. Only I’m not laughing. I was a DeWalt tool guy but no ,ore.

make it impossible to leave reviews on products. You have to contact them via email, they send you an email back which you fill in and return- no way of knowing if or where a poor product review will ever be published- probably won't be. Must be the only company I have ever dealt with that doesn't have a "review" button somewhere- lack of confidence in their own products? Big strapline on their website about registering in Mydewalt so that you can leave reviews for other pros but this not true. Also having useless chatbot and to speak to Indian call centre very poor for what are supposed to be high end tools. Stupid thing is, I am overall very happy with my dozens of Dewalt tools and wanted to leave a mostly positive product review.

To all potential customers considering DeWalt: don’t make the same mistake I did! The quality of DeWalt tools has dropped significantly, and their so-called warranty is just a marketing gimmick used to pass you off to third-party contractors who do whatever they want with zero accountability. I’m a professional with over 30 years of hands-on experience. I handle tools daily and can identify a defect by sound alone. I purchased the DCD703, used it once, and instantly noticed a manufacturing defect in the chuck – unstable and not holding correctly. I took photos before sending it, clearly showing it in almost brand-new condition. I contacted DeWalt support, which turned out to be Stanley Black & Decker UK They told me: > “If it’s a manufacturing defect – it will be repaired under warranty. If it’s wear and tear – it will cost £51.59.” I stayed home the entire day for the UPS collection, losing £250 in wages, fully trusting that the warranty would be respected. And what did I receive in return? A vague reply from some “technician” claiming the damage was “wear and tear from regular use”. What use?! I used it once! No report, no images, no proof. Just a demand for money. If I refuse to pay – they want £25 + VAT because someone “looked at it”. Looked at it for what – one minute? Or maybe didn’t even look at all? This seems to be a standard extortion tactic. What’s worse, some so-called “expert” – who likely has no real experience with tools – is trying to tell me, a professional, that I don’t know how much I’ve used my own tool. Apparently, I imagined the whole thing, but he knows better — without ever having used it, heard it, or worked with it. I formally urge DeWalt to take immediate action regarding warranty request (13104498) and stop this disgraceful extortion by incompetent middlemen who are dragging your brand into the dirt
