1.0 out of 5 stars Just Plain Bad, April 3, 2002

This drill was my first hammer drill....P>I had it for about 2 years, maybe used it for 2 dozen times in that span. I used it to drill holes in bricks and concrete as well as to mix concrete. From start, the levers for switching speed and mode (drill vs. Hammer) was very hard to negotiate.

Started noticing power decrease when I started mixing 2 lbs. of concrete mix in a 5 gallon bucket. Saw sparks internally to drill when I tried drilling 8 holes into concrete foundation. Finally went bezek on me the other day while drilling 1/2" bit into brick. Drill got stuck in on mode, had to pull cord to shut off power.

Do yourself a favor, save yourself some money. Stay away from this drill. It's just plain bad.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have Drill, July 9, 2004

I would never go to a jobsite without this drill. It handles so many different tasks with ease. It is now indispensable. Need to retrofit bolts, this drill does it. Need to drill a lot of holes in mudsill, it is handled. Just be careful, because if the bit catches something, you can get hurt. 8 amps is a lot of power.

I bought this drill for masonery only, and it has worked flawlessly. It has plenty of power for the homeowner, and you could take it to most construction sites. I dropped it once from about five feet, and aside from a few scratches you would never know. This is a good drill at a good price.
