I bought this tool a few months back and it has been a life saver. I have renovated multiple bathrooms and have used it in the demo process and it has cut my time in half. Best of all it has saved a few years off my body and for that I am truely grateful!!!!!

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

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.

Power and balance
Rating: 5
I'm in my 50s and was looking for something that would be easier to use for longer periods to cut down on fatigue, but not give up power. This is the best at both. I love the ease of the chuck, the fact that the low profile allows for getting close to the edge, the balance of the weight and the simple level. Sounds nice too. The only thing I would love to see is a bit holder and second level for the Y axis too. Right now this is the perfect drill for me. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Amazing power
Rating: 5
The power is great! Whether drilling wood, masonry or steel, this drill has never bogged down or overheated. The trigger is smooth. The weight is very minimal and the grip is comfortable. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I bought this drill before I had cordless. It just works. Every time I pull it out of the case, it works. Easy to use and change out bits or mixers. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I've only used it a few times in the last 6 mos, but it's performance is flawless, so far. Case is a nice accessory.

Chuck is not up to the power of the drill
Rating: 1
Poor duty cycle, overheats very quick, too hot to use. Takes forever to cool off. Chuck is cheap. 3/8 bit in mild steel, drill can't handle it. Sorry I bought it. Other reviews must be drilling in balsa wood, because anything else it can't handle
