Shipping Issues I ordered a chuck and a chuck bolt for my drill paid for expedited shipping then only after I had submitted my order was I informed that my 'one or more of my items was on backorder.' I am an electrician so this kinda put a damper on production for a while. 6-10 business days before it even ships.

Makita 6302H 1/2" Drill I bought this to drill some (10) 3" holes in 3/4" plywood. This is a powerful drill than can break your arm or wrist if not used carefully. The enormous torque at low and very controllable rpm is a huge blessing. Also used to remove/install about 300 large bolts that secure our storm shutters (we live in Palm Beach Gardens FL) for the last hurricane. Proved invaluable. Just an excellent drill for WOODWORKING. Cons: Does NOT have the rpm's to drill steel. For some reason the chuck is more prone to moisture/tarnish (sort of on the edge of rust but not quite) than my 3/8" Makita or 1/4" Craftsman. It's not super heavy - i would recommend this drill! (Very large chuck key - easy on fingers - to easily secure bits)

A Company You Can Trust My first order was for some Milwaukee filters and they arrived very quick. My second order was for a hose replacement. It also arrived very fast. Customer service is very quick to answer email questions. I'll be ordering from them again.

Excellent first experience with Great Lakes Power Tools. Searched online for a specific Milwaukee recip. saw blade - GLPT had them at a very good price. The shipping charge seemed realistic (not inflated into a profit-center) and the product arrived quickly, and exactly as advertised. I'll shop at Great Lakes Power Tools again.

Satisfaction made easy They shipped very fast and I received the merchandise as was ordered.
