Like Butter!
Rating: 5
This drill makes holes in concrete like butter ( just make sure you hold it straight, and don't hit any re-bar!). I put 15 holes through 8 inches of concrete in a matter of minutes, just make sure you tighten the auxiliary handle well or the tool will spin on you! Comes with a large case that holes extra drills, and a really long cord (~ 10 ft.). The variable speed is handy as well as the hammer only mode ( I would also like a drill only mode as well a a reversing switch). Fine tool although the cardboard shipping box could be more robust and some foam inside the case to keep the tool from sliding around during transport.

I just used my Bosch 850 hammer drill for the first time taking out 16 SF of concrete to lower a shower floor. It helped do the job performing much better than I could imagine. I love this hammer drill.

Nice upgrade
Rating: 5
This drill is replacing a Bosch11240 that has drilled a lot of anchor holes over the last 9 years so when it came to getting another drill it was going to be a Bosch. We gave the new one the workout this weekend anchoring down tracks and this drill did not dissapoint and is much more comfortible to use, nice tool.

Reliable Rugged Tool

We have three of these hammers in use and they get put through paces every day. These hammers take a beating with very little down time or repair. Definitely worth the money.

Great Bosch Hammer
Rating: 4
Great tool , use this almost every day for a few hours. i did have a issue with the fan making contact with the baffle and it melted together and seized the tool. took it in for warranty. a few days later got it back and it has not failed since. and that dates back almost 2 years. Very happy customer.!

Good Hammer Drill For The Price
Rating: 4
I use this primarily for light demo on concrete. This tool works well for chipping and removal of concrete around stub ups. It is light enough where it won't wear you out after 10 minutes of hammering. Good tool at a great price.

My first drill!
Rating: 5
Just recently purchased our home about a year ago. Along with purchasing our home, my wife had a long list of DIY projects that she wanted done. I will admit that I'm not the handiest of men but someone told that Dewalt was the way to go. Since purchasing this drill, I've mounted numerous heavy duty shelves, a foldable PRX home gym in our garage and other odd jobs around the home with ease. The drill is amazing and now I purchase nothing but Dewalt. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Compact, powerful drill.
Rating: 5
Bought this drill in a bundle with a Dewalt 60v circular saw. What a great value. The drill is very versatile and powerful, yet lightweight and balanced. Many of my coworkers on the job site use DCD998s, and this thing keeps up just find. It is a smaller form factor, and is much more pleasant to carry around than the heavier drills.

Fantastic and reliable
Rating: 5
As always, DeWalt provides a solid, well made power tool. The Hammer Drill I purchased makes easy work for me and most importantly, efficient work. Well made, reliable and the second tool in my arsenal. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Excellent

I purchased this as I needed something faster to drill into brick and this fit the bill perfectly. I have a bunch of other 20V Dewalt products (and batteries), so getting this made sense [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Lightweight & powerful!

I recently purchased this 20v max XR about a month ago to replace my old dewalt 18v drill. Much better ergonomics. Lightweight. Fits great in the hand. Super powerful. Love the new work light implemented into the drill. Adjustable and very bright. Great battery life. Very happy with this purchase! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Rock Hard Durability
Rating: 5
I've been using DeWalt tools for 10 years. When I finally switched from the 18volt hammer drills to the new 20 volt lithium hammer drills, I couldn't believe it. My old drills worked hard and never missed a beat. I didn't think they could make them any better, but I'm here to say they did. The XR series is the best cordless series out there. When you switch the drill over to hammer on #3 speed it's like having a corded DeWalt rotary hammer. I can go on and on with the pros of DeWalt tools but simply put they're the best!

3 Months and broken

After using this drill for 3 months only drilling through wood the chuck locked up. When I got the chuck loose to get the bit out one of the three locks fell out of the chuck. Going through the hoops of trying to get this warrantied now.
