BoschCordless Rotary Hammer Drill UniversalHammer 18V (1x Battery 2.5 Ah, 18 Volt System; Drilling/Hammer Drilling/Chiselling; 2.0 J Impact Energy, SDS Plus Tool Holder, in Carrying Case)

A good solid sds. l and at a very reasonable price.We needed to get a large amount of old plaster off a room and was taking forever. This and a chisel end bit made it very easy in the end. It is not overly heavy and my wife was perfectly able to do stints with it.If you already have one of the 18v batteries that go with this set then it makes it very affordable indeed, we already had a couple so didn’t have to buy any and they were fully charged when this arrived and we got on straight away. .As we were using it as a chisel it was in constant use, nearly nonstop for 25/30 mins before needed charging. If you need to do basic drilling I imagine you could go a good while without a recharge.

Best drill I ever owned, effortlessly drills into concrete and brick - the perfect DIY enthusiasts purchase.Because I only use for DIY I have used cheap tools in the past, the extra cost of this drill is more than made up by the quality and ability it provides.

I was drilling 100mm deep 8mm diameter holes in concrete blocks and it does about 14-15 holes on a full 2.5Ah battery. Not only that, but if you drill one after another the battery's thermal cutout triggers after about 10 holes. (This was outside when it was only 10C.) When the thermal cutout triggers, it just goes dead. There is no warning light telling you that is what has happened. It is as if the thing has died. But wait a few minutes and it will come back. For small jobs, you'll get by with the 2.5Ah battery, but for bigger ones, the 4Ah will be better. And if you are using a big core drill, probably just use a mains SDS drill! It is more convienent to be cordless though.

Powerful with a battery but worried it wouldn't be .Very happy .

Very strong

Excellent Tool but the SDS drills are non standard so a bit wary of non standard items. The larger battery would be good but obviously would increase the weight. I think that the Free Upgraded Batter Offer should be changed to say NOT AVAILABLE WITH THIS VERSION.

Made easy work of something I was struggling with till I purchased this beauty. I did upgrade the battery to 4ah but it works like a dream easily drilling through sandstone pavers like they was butter.

Ideal as my old Bosch drill bits with my corded version fit. Free extra battery worth £50 via offer and 3 year guarantee again by offer. All for £100. Well done Amazon.
