Solid , great features !!

This hammer is a beast , put a Bosch Drill bit HCF2087 with this hammer drill , an it goes through 60 year old concrete like a wood bit through wood . Seriously , just the weight of tool is all that's needed . The over load clutch is a great feature !! Anti-vibration feature is awsome . Hardly any hand or wrist fatigue !! Just a AWSOME HAMMER DRILL !!

Increadable power!!!
Rating: 5
I was using a standard dewalt power drill with a cement bit in it, and it wasn't doing anything. I bought this new bosch rotohammer and it instantly drilled the holes into concrete like a knife through butter. If you are debating about spending the extra money on getting a quality tool like this, DO IT!!! Its worth every penny, and makes concrete drilling a piece of cake!!!

First Rotary Hammer
Rating: 5
This was the first rotary hammer I bought; I have used it on a number of jobs and it works extremely well. Great for removing tile work with the tile chisel and drills into concrete like it's soft wood. I've lent this to a number of friends and family member and everyone has only good things to say about it. All around a great tool.

Time and arm saver
Rating: 5
Doing a kitchen remodel, have 200 square feet of ceramic 12X12 tile to tear up thats on a concrete slab. I first started with a cold chisel and a 3# sledge. After about 2 hours my and only about 25 tiles removed I had enough. I got this and some different flat and scraper chisels, literally I was taking up tiles in seconds, and even a tile that tried to fight me still only took 10 seconds maybe. Plus I wasn't having tiny pieces ricocheting all over the place, this did a tremendous job keeping the pieces from flying around, most of the pieces came up in big chunks, many the entire tile broke free. I thought initially its going to take forever to clean up the mastic but this tool with the scraper literally has my slab as smooth as marble. I would't believe I could get it so smooth in preparation of a wood floor. Tool never bound up, never overheated and was a joy to use. I like the tool free bit changes and the retractible hook that lays up against the handle can come in handy if you are on a ladder and need to set the tool down. Could not ask for anything more, saved my arm for sure and time, couldn't tell you how much time this has saved me and gotten my concrete slab perfectly smooth, you would never believe mastic and tile was down for 24 years..

So far so good
Rating: 5
Haven't used Bosch roto-hammer products for quite a few years when I used to do Industrial Electrical work. I recently purchased for my handyman/renovation business mostly for tile removal work as well as replacement of damaged/frozen water spigots on homes, where the 1 1/8" hammer drill bit will come into benefit, so we never have to hand chisel brick openings any longer to accommodate new frost free spigots we use. Just purchased a nice set of chisel tips and drill bits for this tool as well from Bosch. This tool I purchased actually on a Black Friday special deal recently (at Lowes) where they only had 6 for sale, which were not the normal Bosch 1" max hammerdrills they sell, and this would accommodate up to 1 1/8" SDS bit , a larger motor, plus was manufactured in Germany, and reason I decided to purchase it.

Look no further!

After starting a pretty straightforward handrail project, I quickly realized that my cordless drill (not a Bosch tool) with hammer function just could not handle drilling 1/2" holes in 50 year old concrete. I nearly burned up my cordless drill before giving in and buying this Bosch hammer drill. The difference was IMMENSE. I made the remaining 4-6 holes in a matter of seconds (where my smaller drill took several minutes per hole). Definitely a matter of 'the right tool for the job,' and if you are looking for speed and precision in drilling into masonry, this Bosch tool is essential. Though I do not use it everyday, I've used Bosch rotary hammer tools in the past, so I'm confident this one with stand the test of time.

Very fine tool, nearly perfect.
Rating: 4
Beautiful little tool, perfect balance between power and weight. One thing I didn't love, is the depth stop rod, which seems to hold solidly enough for now, is a little loose because of the way it is held in place (a toothed edge that engages with a spring-loaded toothed clip.) Time will tell.

Good tool

Over the past 50 years I have done many home projects with all variety of tools. I am happy to have this Bosch drill/driver. For most projects requiring drilling or driving it is the tool to use. Small and light, yet powerful enough.

Tiny and light weight but extremely powerful
Rating: 5
I already owned the PS22 before getting this drill/driver and completely love it. This is the perfect companion for me and I like that this has the versatility of the 3 jaw chuck and able to clamp round bits up to ⅜" or 10mm. The chuck turns very true and works well even with very small bits. It is very light and when hanging from my belt with it's belt clip I sometimes forget the drill is there. I'm very surprised how much torque this has, now I only get out the 18V tools for truly heavy duty work but 90% of my drilling is tasks are covered by this drill. I really love the clutch and how sensitive it can get for protecting sensitive work. The lightest setting is great for very small fasteners and combined with the great variable speed trigger control it can cover the tasks of a light duty cordless screwdriver. I have used it to drill doorknob holes in wood and metal doors but if I had several to drill I would use an 18V tool. I don't find myself using the highest torque settings with fasteners as it can easily get into the torque range where I feel more comfortable using an impact driver but that is great for drilling holes into metals and harder woods. If someone asked me whether they should get either the PS22 or the PS32 for professional use, I would say, get both.

Love German engineering
Rating: 5
I really like Bosch engineering. So I bought this because of that and it was such a good deal. I ended up returning the drill because it was a bit under powered for me. I have other drills that are 18V and 20 V. I hadn't realized how much that added for me, since my hand and arm strength are not as strong as I would like. I plan to buy the same Bosch drill but the new 18V model.

Good tool, light and handy
Rating: 5
I bought this tool because I need a compact drill-driver to work on my boat, in tight spaces, and while up the mast. I have a large 18v drill that has worked for 10 years, but it is too large for some projects, and I am afraid to haul it up a mast. I have used this drill several times, now, and it is very nice. The motor is smooth, it has LOTS of power, and it is easy to control. The chuck works nicely, with no hiccups. I am not sure about the bit holder - I have already had one bit fall out, but I did not lose it. The belt clip is nice, but I think I will modify it to make it easier to clip onto a line. The light will be useful when working inside the boat. The small bit holder is very nice to get into tight places. One big adjustment, compared to the big drill is that this drill has a LOT of torque, and is light weight, so if you catch a drill bit or a tap, it is very easy to twist the bit and break it. You have to take it easy and slow when you are using a combined drill-tap, or you WILL break at least one bit. I have broken two, so far. No feeling for how long the battery will last, but it should be satisfactory for my tasks. I also like the fact that it is not possible to sit the drill up on its battery, where it would be liable to fall over and be damaged. Good design.

Love my PS32 Drill
Rating: 5
I own the Bosch PS22 hex drive/drill, but when I found the PS32, couldn't pass it up. I LOVE it, there is anything not to like about this drill. Holds bits very well. Easy to use, easy to change batteries (if you can remember where the charger is since it's been so long since you had to charge it), easy to reverse, and love the LED light to help in poorly lit places.

Fantastic Small Drill
Rating: 5
The Bosch PS32 is a fantastic tool that's perfect for lite duty applications. The quality of build is excellent all around, and the brushless motor affords meaningful extension to battery life between recharges. The PS32 is right up there with the best of the Bosch 12v product line, and you won't regret adding this to your tool arsenal.

This small drill has just as much power as an 18volt. The best thing is it's light weight for us veterans in the trade. I have the first blue core 18 volt drill and it works great. Bosch tools are the only tools that I buy. They are simply the best. Awesome customer service. Thanks to everyone at Bosch for making such a quality product.

What a tool!
Rating: 5
This is a great tool.....probably the best cordless driver I've ever used (not just owned). It's light, yet feels quite solid and balanced in my hand. The chuck spins and locks effortlessly. It has huge amounts of torque for such a small device. The battery seems to never die. It caused me change the way I think about cordless tools, and has made me a Bosch tool customer for life.

Powerful drill for the price and size, quite happy

SO far so good with this drill! Love the size of the tool, it is perfect for apartment living. Powerful, was able to drill multiple holes in wood and dry wall for an audio installation project on one battery with plenty of power to spare.
