The Right Tool for the Right Job
Rating: 5
I needed to drill into a garage cement slab to anchor down 5/8" plywood for new flooring in a pantry / utility room. With a 5/32 " SDS drill bit attached to the DH22PG, it cut through the concrete like it was soft pine. And the 3/16" Tapcons threaded into the holes perfectly. It's a great tool at a great price. I hope it performs the same in future projects requiring larger drill bits for securing heavier anchors into concrete.

Pleasantly Suprised!
Rating: 4
I bought this hammer drill about a year after selling my bosch sds max drill that i had. I wasn't expecting to be wow'd by its performance, but after using it to drill all my wall plates in my basement i was suprised at the durability of the drill and how hard it hits. I would definitely buy another hitachi product after using this drill, and expect to be using this one for many years to come. As a heavy user of milwaukee and bosch power tools, my mind is beginning to veer in the direction of hitachi.

Wish I'd bought it long ago!

Used it on poured concrete floor & it was fantastic. The only reason I did not assign 5 stars is because I've been unable to find the drill bit attachment.

A tool for life
Rating: 5
I bought this rotary hammer 1 year ago and i am using it every single day, it is very sturdy fast on hard concrete and very strong in case of need of more control and finesh you dial down the power an you have total control!. It is user friendly with great vibration reduction! It feels and is very well built like a tank the only thing i did like that much is the current protection that cuts the power to half if it detects low power in the current like from a small generator or when multiple tools are plugged in the same power cord i am using the 220v [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Very Impressive
Rating: 5
While I was a little skeptical of the hammer at first, coming from a brand that I'm unfamiliar with (in the concrete market), I can't tell you how impressed I was with this rotary hammer. While the light up interface is a little intimidating, once you figure out what everything does, it's very helpful. I also liked the handle vibration (or lack thereof). For extended periods of use, I'd definitely grab his SDS+ over my "blue" one. Note: I listed weight as a con, not by any fault of Hitachi, but because it's just a heavy tool and that needs to be considered.
