Good Tool!
Rating: 5
The drill is balanced and comfortable to use. I like the longer cord making it more convenient than hunting down an extension cord. The drill has plenty of power and I like the hammer drill, both functions operate perfectly. The drill has plenty of power (using a 6" hole saw I needed the side handle due to the strong torque). The drill came with a depth gauge, chuck wrench, rotatable side handle and a nice case. The only potential problem is the side handle is difficult to tighten, having a rather small wing nut making it difficult to snug up.

Like it big time!

Bought it to help build a small wooden deck over a concrete base. Drill was used to anchor screws and bolts to substrate. Found it to be very reliable and powerful. Cut overall job time considerably.

great price for the quality

only had it for a few months and just love it. i have a regular bosh drill i purchased 15 years ago and still works great. had to change the chuck once and that is understandable. no other maintenances were done.

Fine product

Sturdy, yet light, this drill does a great job. A switch on top allows one to use it as a regular drill or as a hammer drill. Good buy for the money. Nice case, as well.

I bought it to mix cement and grout for tiles and to replace/support my old drill. Along the way I used it to drill tiles. It is strong and easy to use. So far I love using it.

Simple and aggressive
Rating: 5
First time using a hammer drill, so it is a bit aggressive when at max speed. I used this adding a 2/4 wall on my cement foundation. My holes would be 1" deep. I had my concerns being too aggressive, as I didn't want to harm the motor or damage the drill bit. Not making much progress, I eased into being more aggressive and let the drill do its thing. My first hole took about 10 minutes. Afterward, my next holes took about a minute each. As a practice, I counted to 10 seconds then cleaned the debris.

Did the job well!
Rating: 4
I used this hammer drill in framing my basement, attaching base plates to the concrete floor. It worked very well on the full job. The drill has plenty of power and torque for the job. Our only problem was stripped Robertson screwdriver heads when drilling in screw. We burned through quite a few screw drivers as the torque was so powerful. I subsequently learned there are specialty bits for the diver that may be more effective. But ver satisfied with the power of the tool itself.

Powerful motor.

I wanted to drill holes in some concrete steps to mount a handrail. The concrete is about 20 years old so getting pretty hard by now. The hammer drill worked really well, much easier than I expected. It went so well that I was able to surprise my wife with a new handrail when she came back home after a morning trip out! Lots of brownie points!

Not quite what i was hoping for

I bought this tool to drill some weep holes in a concrete deck. It performed well enough for its design. I had to rent a roto hammer to complete the job. Am keeping it for normal drilling into concrete walls for fasteners and such.

Outstanding performance

Purchased several months ago, and finally need to use it. Did some serious work/use in a couple of days. Performance was outstanding.

Great product worth the money.
Rating: 5
I received this as a Father's Day gift and was extremely surprised by the torque this little impact driver carries. It broke loose my lawnmower blades with ease. The drill I used to install the water hoses brackets to the side of the house and the hammer drill went through the mortar joint with ease. (I had already purchased the Bosch concrete bits last year). I would say at this point I am sold on the Bosch Brand. Great products as well as very competitive pricing.

Great impactor and drill kit
Rating: 5
Brushless what else could you ask for idh182 is great impactor. You can drive in screws or use socket set. Has plenty power. Easy to handle. Hds183 is great drill. Well balance and it has slim design.

great tool - a must for mechanics
Rating: 5
I bought this set 2 years ago and used it almost every day .Never had a single problem . The batteies are still 100% after that time ,. Powerfull impact will loosen up even 1/2 inch bolts and nuts and is small enough to fit in tight spots . Would by set anytime again - more than happy with it.

The best impact driver I have ever used
Rating: 4
I am a commercial electrician and I bought this combo around 3 years ago. I will put this impact driver up against any other impact driver on the market, I have used other top$$ brands. This driver has taking lug nuts off of cars!! The drill on the other hand is not so impressive. The two problems I have with this drill is 1. The battery will lose connection quite frequently and you have to take the battery out blow on it and clean the terminals on the battery contacts of the drill. Very irratating!! 2. The chuck of this drill does not hold all that tight. I have lost my uni-bit down finished walls two times to many just because the chuck losens up when you start drilling. If not for those two things I would have rated 5.
