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.

Great cordless option
Rating: 5
I acquired this drill a little over a year ago. Since then coworkers and myself have put it to good use. I work as a detention contractor installing security electronics. As such they are not a lot of options for corded tools inside the facilities I work in. Drilling 3/4 and 1 inch holes through dry block, precast, or reinforced concrete is what I use this drill mostly for and it excels at the job. Using the high demand 9.0 batteries delivers plenty of power with this drill and it will run all day and more for our applications. Before I got this we had a corded blue drill which is a great product in an of itself and for those that have used those I will say that this cordless drill from Milwaukee is as good and maybe just a little better as far as drilling is concerned. It is hands down more convenient and a lot faster to deploy.
