Awesome hammer drill
Rating: 5
Used with Bosch 4 1/2” hammer bit and had no difficulties drilling holes in basement concrete walls and attaching 2x4’s with Tapcon screws. Easy to load and use. Avoided cheaper hammer drills where reviewers noted burnout issues after just a few holes. Very glad I did. Fifteen holes so far and drill and bit still working smoothly.

Easy Drill/Hammer
Rating: 5
Great tool. Will be great to use on a couple more projects I have. Easy to use and not so heavy or loud as some I've seen. Drill and Hammer action works great...put in sump pump - great tool.

This tool earns its name (bulldog)
Rating: 5
I bought it a week ago to remodel a basement bathroom floor (ceramic tiles) under which the heating cable went bezerk. It ate through the tiles (and when I learned the gentle way: taking them in one piece) and the wire and the auto-levelling concrete in less than a day (80 sq-ft). Works like a charm. I was surprised by the low level of dirt it created.

I used this rotohammer to remove mortar from a river rock patio and long walkway. Spent three days chipping tons of cement off of rocks and braking up the patio. Great machine for the $! Light and easy to use and maneuver. Basically a pro by the time we were done with that project and met all my expectations.

fast and easy
Rating: 5
Needed something to remove tile and mortar from the floor. Hammer and chisel was slow and involved lots of labor. I'm getting up in years and don't care for working on my knees for long periods. What took three hours to do with the chisel took about 30 min. to do with the rotory hammer.

Makes drilling holes in cement a breeze.
Rating: 5
I had 130 holes to drill to anchor large storage racks in a warehouse. My old hammer drill had trouble drilling the holes and went through many bits to get 20 holes done before dying. This hammer drill with an SDS drill bit for either 3/8" or 1/2" holes was recommended to me. I could not believe how easy it drilled the holes. I only needed 1 of each size bit to get the job done. It drills the holes effortlessly.

Wider choice of bits
Rating: 4
Have used Bosch tools over40 years in the commercial heavy construction industry. This one is not as heavy as past tools, to me means possible lack of performance and penetration. Need a larger choice of bits, can't find the "bush" hammer bit I used. The "SDS" is possibly great, I prefer the old ones. But, it is still a Bosch and I am a dedicated user of Bosch tools. Thank you for all the years.

perfect for home projects
Rating: 4
Ideal tool to have on a HVAC truck for drilling thru concrete walls or basement floors. SDS Plus saves me time spent on the job and i do not have to worry about burning thru several batteries on my cordless. I purchased this on the recommendation of several of my HVAC colleges and happy to use it daily

I have 4 other dewalt tools so I decided to get a corded drill. It's great. Not heavy and goes through anything with ease. My dad got me hooked on DeWalt as he hads a 1950's radial arm saw that is incredible. Long lasting. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Just right
Rating: 5
I bought this last spring because I was installing a safety fence around a pool. I had started using a competitor's comparable drill and it just wasn't getting it done and the chuck kept detaching. After about an hour and very little progress I returned that tool and exchanged it for the Dewalt model. I made very quick work of my project! I love the drill and will use it for years to come I am sure. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Very Disappointing
Rating: 1
Initially bought this item about 3 months ago. Very impressed at first at speed of drilling but after a few weeks I noticed it started throwing grease from the fwd bearing. Took it back to syore and they exchanged it for another. Second drill only lasted about 15 holes before it started throwing grease and chuck was hot to touch. Took it back to store and they gave me a refund. Said they don't exchange more than once. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
