A few years ago, I pulled up to a stop light and saw a yellow object in the street. I put my car in park and went over to the object to find a Dewalt DCF885 (no joke). Brought it home, and found it to be fully functional which included it being in pretty good cosmetic shape. I still have that same 885; however, I liked it so much, I bought two more. All three are used by me regularly and all still work perfectly.
good find, I remember years ago i was driving and my guys didn't latch my trailer door properly. in my side mirror i watched 3 dewalt tools flying across the street. never again :) thanks for watching, and sharing
I found one too pretty much the same way. I was at the local hardware store to buy screws when out of the corner of my eye I saw something yellow. Some idiot left like 30 dewalts, makitas, Bosch and others just sitting on the shelf. I couldn't believe my luck. I guess someone else found them before me and tried to fasten them down with a little black cord but they should have gotten them when they first found them because I took a bolt cutter off the wall and loaded them up into a large tote that I bought. The store owner must have been the one who originally found them because when he saw me walking towards the door with them he yelled 'stop' and gave chase but he was no where near quick enough. Sometimes you just get lucky. They looked brand new like they were just out of the box and most still had the price tags. They were literally just sitting on the shelf almost as if on display.
cool that ya did a quick review of the 885. Alot of times you can finding em even cheaper off marketplace ,pawnshops, etc because alot of folks separate out the multi kits they get that come with this. Love it it's always been my workhorse
I got this in a bundle before Sears closed down it was on sale with a drill, 1/4 impact, 2 batteries and charger with bag for $100. 7 years later its still running like a champ my brothers step daughter crashed a Honda left if it on the floor axles, control arms and rack and pinion broken removed it all with this impact with no problems. It's very powerful. Will run it till it dies and I'll probably buy another one.
I've got one of those too and it's great! I usually use my 887 on the job and keep this 885 at home for home stuff but on occasion I bring it to the job for an extra impact when there's another person or something like that.
They're great for aviation work to. Underwing panels and cargo bay floorboards screws get heavily corroded and this little and lightweight impact driver let's me go all day on 1 or 2 batteries. It makes this 60 year old grandma much more efficient.
Brushed dewalt anything - I can’t even tell it’s brushed unless I use it in the dark or sniff it in use (don’t do that it gives you a bad headache). You get so much out of them and they just keep on running. Dewalt really does the brushless good and keeps it relevant. It’a a nice reminder that brushed doesn’t mean bad.
My dad gave me one after he went and got some Milwaukee fuel tools, the 885 was very beat and the leds didn’t work anymore, I replaced the shell from one I got on Amazon and regreased it, still works perfectly fine to this day but I still haven’t replaced the leds
This particular one is often preferred over the newer 887 that anecdotally have been observed smoking... Contractors swear by them similar to what you say about being robust, reliable and now days less expensive than the newer ones. And professional contractors, if you can imagine the blasphemy do NOT care if it is brushed. I just got one new in box for $61 bucks American on Ebay. I have a major deck project and will be doing an informal personal test comparison. I have the 797? that came in a kit.
@@hammerandhome I actually have all three and I just worked on the project and was putting a couple of hundred two inch screws into cross members on shutters. I tried them all and ended up using the 885 and preferring it. I started with the 887 on 1 and it stopped half way in. I then tried mode 2 and it worked but...and three put them in...but in using the 885, I find that it delivers power differently than the 887 and it is more satisfying. The variable control is very accomodating and easy to get a feel for and allows all the control I need. I almost see the modes as unneeded bells and whistles. If you need level one, use a screwdriver either manual or battery. Two is so what. I suppose if you were anal and wanted your screw tip exactly even then maybe it would give you some level of distinction and three is OK but I love the feel of the 885. I am almost certain that the handle is ever so slightly smaller round than the 887. The 787 is a good basic impact driver sort and any homeowner should get but if you got batts and can get an 885 for 51 bucks off of Ebay, why? The 787 is sort of an 885 light but with a brushless motor... I worked with all three and ended up using the 885 and it will be my go to. This is subjective but my choice.
I still have mine from like eight years ago.... still my main driver.... use it about five times a week throughout the work day, runs like a tank. Won't get rid of it until it dies.
Your story is repeated by many professionals with many having used the 887 and finding themselves still going back to the 885 on a daily basis. I believe it is the last brushed one on the DeWalt impact driver page you can still buy... There must be a reason.
@@rockfordhx2768 no way that's not what that's used for, you need an actual heavy duty socket drill driver removal thing for that. I do however use it to re install the lug nuts and then torq them down with a breaker bar or an electronic one
Great drill I just got one Love it !!! I use Dewalt stem and bit they are the best!! number 2. Good tutorial could of showing way more what that baby can do!
I need help deciding!!! Home Depot has this 885 for sale at $99 for the drill a battery and a charger. But they also have the Atomic brushless 809 for sale at the same $99 and it includes the same things. Which would you get? Feel like the atomic would be better right?
I would go with the 885, I found the atomic to be slow, the atomic is brushless so it will last longer than the 885, but when i compare the two side by side i prefer the 885.
@@hammerandhome What you are showing here is what I would assume a relatively older model but there are two different 885's on Home Depot website. Which is closer to the older model as in terms of performance, the 885L1 or 885C1?
In my opinion or preference, I'd rather get the DCF809 Atomic VERSUS the DCF885 for $99 deal at the Home Depot, 809 Atomic is brushless you don't have to worry about replacing it's carbon brushes the motor will run forever and also depends on how you use your impact driver. Being Impact Driver meaning Only for Driving Fasteners, but NOT meant for Paddle bit Drilling. You can use impact driver to drill pilot holes no bigger than 5/16th of an inch. I don't use impact to drill using paddle bits that's stupid and dumb. For that specific job I use Hammer Drill. Now for DCF885 that unit is good. It's been proven for years. You can choose the DCF885 if you know how to replace carbon brushes of a tool. But in my opinion I'd rather get the DCF885 because it's made in the USA 🇺🇲
I have 3 of those DCF885, the First one is 9 years old, the second one is 6 years old and the third one is about a year old. And I also got 2 XR's 4 yr old DCF 888 XR w/ Bluetooth and 2 yr old DCF887 XR And I got 2 Brushless Hammer Drill DCD996 all of them are Made in USA. There's other version of these tools that are made in Mexico and China. But I rather buy the Made in USA 🇺🇲. Oh also my DeWalt corded electric circular saw w/ brake also made in USA DWE575SB w/ Electric Brake I got 2 of them.
i would say it would work for some automotive jobs, but i would probably recommend stepping up to a larger model, for the big jobs like wheel removal etc.. you don't need to have impact sockets, but standard sockets may break over time
Lug nuts on my truck wheels torque to 100 lb-ft and my 885 won't remove them. That's okay - it's a compact 1/4" drive driver. It's fine for lighter stuff and great for driving wood screws.
Definitely not. I've been using DCF885 since early 2012. After 10 years of super light duty, DCF885 still runs good, BUT I was NEVER able to remove even one lag nut on any car I've tried, 4Runner, Metris, etc... even when DCF885 was new. In May 2022, I bought Milwaukee 2853-20 M18 FUEL 1/4 in. Hex Impact Driver + Two 5.0Ah Batteries + Charger + Hard Case for $173.11+$16.45=$189.56 on sale from The home depot. to replace it.
Philips head screws are probably one of the worst designed heads out there, go with a Robertson or GRK style (torx), they hold a lot better and your impact will work well with them. cheers

Стоит ли? Естественно. Уже 5й год пользуюсь. Где только я не таскал с собой. Практически каждый день использую, безотказно пашет и закручивает практически что угодно и куда угодно. Либо просто сорвет бошку самореза, либо закрутит. Пережил 3, вроде падения с высоты в районе 2 метров. Комплектная батарея все еще живее всех живых. На момент, когда ему было около года вкрутил штук 200 саморезов в штукатуренную стену без подзарядки. Сейчас может уже разрядится, но ощутимой деградации батареи, в принципе, нету. А еще с насадкой под сверла можно продырявить кирпич 6мм сверлом, если уж очень понадобится. Единственная проблема, которая появилась примерно пол года назад - это битодержатель. Иногда бита либо застревает в нем, либо не влазит. Но это мелочи. Он уже отработал свою стоимость раз 100.
Yes it is! But it's gonna take a just a little bit longer. But it will do the job, not like the XR DCF 887/888 just one squeeze of the trigger it'll take the lugnut off so quickly.
@@twinbee4243 thank you brother I appreciate it I’m getting into hands on work around the house I never invested in drills or impacts I’m just trying to figure out if I should do dewalt Milwaukee or makita
@@rockfordhx2768 you're welcome. Dewalt DCF885 have enough torque to help you out around the house it's got descent 1400 in/lbs or 114ft/lbs of torque and also varies on what Amp hours of batteries you use. The car's lugnut most of them are only torqued somewhere in 70ish Ft/lbs so yeah it can take out car lugnut. But for large pickup truck like half ton or 3/4 ton you might wanna use other tool such as 3/8th or 1/2" Impact Wrench. Also keep in mind Impact Driver are not Really meant for drilling, driver are Only for Driving Fasteners such as small screws, deck screws and structural framing screws (washer head Torx or hex head screws) for lag Bolts?? You might wanna drill some pilot holes first to drive lag bolts using impact driver. Lag bolts are supposed to be driven by impact wrench but 1/4" impact driver can do it but you gotta drill some pilot holes first. You can use impact driver on Drilling but don't use drill bits bigger than 5/16th Twist drill bit and don't use paddle bit. You have to use Hammer drill for that application. That's how my tools survived and lived longer in my daily jobsite
@@rockfordhx2768 for that, I don't know what to say or advise. Because people are different. Just like myself. I'm NOT loyal to any tool brand. As a Carpenter/Framer , Deck Builder and General Contractor and Welder I own Bosch, Dewalt, Makita and Ryobi tools. Believe it or not I even use Ryobi tools in my jobsite. I'm not kind of kiddish Milwaukee guys. You can see my Box Truck full of different brand tools. Believe it or not I also owns and uses some cheap ass Harbor Freight Tools like Bauer and Hercules brand despite of owning some DeWalt, Bosch and Makita tools I got some cheap tools too. Tools are always will be just a tools nothing special about them. I only buy em' whoever have the most affordable and great value deals.

Hi is this 18 or 20 V many thanks
this is the 20v
as far as im concerned there is no difference technically it is just a marketing trick for the US market. correct me if i am wrong
Is brushless
this is brushed, but still a nice impact. the new atomic impact is very nice if your in the market. ill be doing a video on it soon
W.O.W.
great driver but will strip bits and break screw heads off. It's at 14000lbs torque while new drivers are in the 16k to 20k range
1400 in-lbs or 117 ft-lbs according to the manual.
Might want to check your numbers there

In May 2022, I bought Milwaukee 2853-20 M18 FUEL 1/4 in. Hex Impact Driver + Two 5.0Ah Batteries + Charger + Hard Case for $173.11+$16.45=$189.56 on sale from The home depot. to replace it.
Nah, better cheap drills on the market.
Mine started smelling like shit, may need brushes.
lol, that's a new one. better go get that brushless
Dcf887 is not worth a dam . I grab my DCF895 on the truck .
I find the 887 is to fast and or pulses out . Gets urges of power
Just a piece of shit lol
The DCF887 is a year old used it five times. It stopped working except the lighting. Tried 2 full charged batteries. It quit removing a 10mm nut.
