The OLD is excellent so will the NEW be.
Rating: 5
We owned a VERY old Hitachi 1 1/2" hammer that finally quit that was nearly identical to this new drill. The old was excellent. I discovered the reputation of the new one is equally excellent and superior to any other brand on the market. So why change? P.S. The new tool's work has just begun.

I have had this for several months now, and have used it to demo walkways and a fire place. Works great! Also used it to core a 2" hole through a 18" thick masonry wall. Highly recommend this tool!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

works like expected, just had to toss two old ones that the manufacturers, Hitachi and Milwaukie, stopped making parts for. Very annoying!!!
