Better deal than the 791
I spent a lot of time debating between the 791 and the 796 reading countless reviews of both. The 791 is clearly more popular based on the quantity of reviews. Ultimately, I couldn't decide and bought both. I'm glad I did. The 791 I received had something loose rattling around in the chuck but didn't seem to effect performance. I had read that the chuck may be looser on the 796 due to the hammer operations. What I found was the opposite. The chuck on the 796 was rock solid. I was also worried about the weight of the 796 and the bigger size. As you can see by the attached pictures, the weight differential is minimal and the the 796 is only about 9/16 longer than the 791. The other thing I likes about the 796 is that in the kit I got, it had the larger 4AH battery and the charger charges the battery twice as quick. In all, I couldn't be happier with the 796 and the 791 went back to the store.

Great tool list power in drill
I used it every day at work I owned this tool for. Few Months and never let me down yet
Really Dependable Drill
I purchased this drill a year ago because my prior hammer drill was acting weird. I've had zero issues with this one and have dropped it a few times. Keeps running like a champ. I primarily use this for drilling into various wood species and for drilling pocket holes.
