I've had the DCH273 for a couple of years now, it's a good drill for doing wall fixings, 10mm etc. I also like the self contained dust extractor attachment, it's a good combination, maybe a touch heavy, but good all the same. I like the way it does not need a seperate battery. I don't know I'd want to be pushing 24mm holes all day long with it, and it won't last long if you try and core with it, but I suppose they offer bigger drills for that. I'm not a fan of the shape of the drill for chiselling, I'd prefer more of a D handle style drill for lots of that purpose. But no complaints.
