The description says this drill comes with "one kit box." Is this a typical plastic storage case with handle? Or is it more like a cardboard "box"?

Mine came with canvas bag. All recent comments indicate that is standard now. Product description is incorrect.

Yes, this is a typical plastic storage case w/a handle. Enough to protect the drill from a small 5' fall

The "case" is configured to hold the drill w/battery installed (but not the belt clip...don't use it), one extra battery, charger (you need to neatly coil the cord to close the case properly) and an area for bringing along a selection of loose bits. I was surprised by the small size, I guesstimate 12"X10"X3 1/2". Ric

Plastic box with handle. It is not as durable/heavy as the DeWalt case that I have for another drill.

It is the standard plastic box with a handle. My use of the drill does not require the box, so I only opened it once, took the parts out and filed it for later so I don't know much about it except that it is plastic sitting on my shelf.

Jason, I've ordered a few of these bare tools and I've never seen a case come with any of them (just the packaging box). There are a couple of nice, tough Makita tool bags at under $30.00 though.

I bought one of these in a box marked "special buy" from the orange home improvement store that came with a drill, the hackzall, two compact batteries, a dual charger (charges M18 and M12), and a carrying bag. The cost was very reasonable (basically I got the hackzall for free).

The only thing I got in the box was the drill as pictured. It may have been wrapped in paper or plastic. You must supply your own battery and charger, which I already had.

Yes, it comes in a black hard plastic case. The case is a fairly tight fit and does not allow much in the way of extra space for drill bits, etc. It does fit the tool well and if the tool is all you want to carry then you will have no problems.

Specifically made for this tool: NO. However, anytime I need a case, I go to Menards. It is s regional store chain like HomeDepot. They have a LARGE variety of tool boxes. This time of year there are always good sales on such products. You are certain to find a sterdy reasonably priced one that works for this drill with a little extra room for bits.

The bare tool DCS355B means just that . . . the tool only; no bag, no battery, nothing else. Oh, it does come in a cardboard box.

Yes I did get one. It was located in the carrier storage bag which was folded in the bottom of the box with the drill on top. This was how mine was packaged.

No there is no bit storage on the drill. There is room in the case to store accessories.

I just bought my Dewalt drill from Amazon in early April 2015 and it does not include a hard case. Instead, you get a soft nylon zipper bag. It doesn't look like Amazon sells the hard case for this drill separately either. I did a Google search and got only a few hits for the hard cases only (not the entire case, drill, and batteries kit) and the hard case was priced at between $50 and $100. I paid $99 for the drill and battery kit and doubt I'll spend that much on the hard case, although it would be useful to have it for garage storage.

No I don't think it is, I think that is somewhere in the description. I bought this one though and it hasn't given me any trouble. I guess once it eventually dies I will have to buy a new one but at the moment I couldn't afford to buy a new one. My advice, if you can afford the new one go ahead and spend the extra, but if you are strapped for funds at the moment and really need a drill, this is definitely a great buy!

It should tell you in the description if it does. The kit I purchased came with two batteries and a charger as well as a soft sided case. Read the description, if not mentioned more than likely it is only the bare tool, which is a very nice drill for what you pay for it.

Not sure about a box. It is a drill, a hammer drill for masonary, and has a clutch setting for driving screws etc

It just comes with the cardboard box like you would normally get one in. I am not sure there even is a case. The air hammer hAs a case but that's cause it has a chisel set with it.

The "2 piece" drill & impact driver kit I got came with a fabric, zippered bag that's plenty roomy enough for both tools, a box of drills, socket set for impact driver, batteries and charger. (When I think of case I think of something made of hard plastic and molded-to-fit.)

as, im sure, you can see from the picture it comes with a little box that slides out. The drill does not store the bits. Very Nice Product
