### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ When you need a competent hammer-drill this is the answer
*by A***L on March 13, 2018*

I previously owned a porter-cable hammer-drill (7A) which worked perfectly... right up to the moment the speed controller / trigger melted down. So I decided I needed a tool that was somewhat more "serious". I was not disappointed. This is a very solid, and heavy, machine. Where the porter-cable struggled, this machine (with the matching SDS drills) makes short work of concrete bases and patio foundations. For reference I install BBQ's and mini-split HVAC systems as a supplement to my day job as a software engineer (installing mini-splits pays WAY better in the USA).A few words of caution:This is not a universal chuck - it takes only SDS bits. This is not a bad thing! The SDS system prevent slippage and makes for quick and easy bit changes. For heavy duty use this is an excellent solution.This hammer-drill is heavy compared to your average domestic drill. If you need a lightweight, cordless hammer-drill I'd probably recommend a Makita hammer-drill. By contrast the Bosch seems better suited to prolonged, heavy duty use.

*by C***. on May 16, 2016*

This thing is awesome. I deleted an exterior door and needed to demo back the stucco around the opening so I could tie in new building paper and lath. I tried briefly to break out the perimeter stucco with a hammer, but that was incredibly slow and tedious, not to mention damaging to the underlying building paper and sheathing. With this badass tool, i was able to chip out a 6" border all the way around the opening in under 2 hours. It worked fantastically, and I am glad I bought the heavy duty version because by the end, the tool was somewhat warm to the touch. I think the steel heatsink piece really helps modulate the tool's temperature, as that was where most of the heat was, instead of the body of the tool.Since doing the stucco job, I've also cored into an interior concrete structural wall to install some racking systems, and I drilled through an exterior retaining wall to run electrical to a wall mounted light. This thing is a beast, and nothing I've thrown at it so far has slowed it down.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ good drill
*by P***L on January 12, 2015*

best hammer drill for 95% of all holes an electrician needs. If you need bigger than 1 1/8 hole, this thing may do it, but you will be pushing your luck and patience. I use it almost 3 hours a day on some jobs, and it never gets too unreasonably hot, even if the bit is hot enough to sizzle water. Never buy a hammer drill that doesn't allow you to drill only, chisel (hammer) only, or use both as this and any reputable model does. I noticed this yields less wrist pain after a hard day's use than the dewalt model that is about the same in size and specs. No complaints, and prefer it over the Dewalt, but not enough to make another trip to the van for one over the other, unless it involves several hours of repeated use (then this one wins) I drop a little motor oil in the chuck every so many uses, and I believe that helps it stay fit. Not sure what others do, or if that is wrong, just been doing that since a boss taught me to do that to his tools.
