After researching and testing different brands of cordless drills, I chose the Bosch 3860 and do not regret my purchase. This is my first Bosch purchase and my purchase was based upon hearing good reports on Bosch's reliability and durability. I mostly do remodeling projects. While I haven't had this drill for an extended period of time, I can already tell that Bosch knows how to build good power tools. The drill has plenty of power and is built like a tank. It's a bit heavier than my DeWalt 9.6 volt, but lighter than other 18 volt cordless drill I have tested. It is very well balanced and comfortable to use during extended periods of work. The drill will also stand up using the battery as a base. This drill has 475 in/lbs of torque with 16 clutch settings. The adjustable clutch ring is also made of metal where other drills have a plastic clutch ring. it is very well balanced, although the handle is a bit thick. If the exterior build qaulity is any indication of how well made the internal components are, this drill should be around for a long time before needing any motors or gears replaced. The seams between the exterior casing are hardly noticed; much better than that of other best selling industrial cordless drills. I am extremely pleased with this drill purchase and plan to purchase more Bosch tools in the future.

If your looking for a good drill like I was not too long ago, than look no further, trust me you won't be dissappointed. I,ve used every major brand of drills, DeWalt, Milwaukie, Porter Cable etc. All of which are decent, but none match this fine drill. It out torks the DeWalt 18 volt and handles much better, the variable trigger is superb and the battery life is outstanding. I'm a residential electrician and drill alot of holes, this baby goes through studs and joists like butter and keeps on tickin, fast recharge as well. This drill is ideal for everything from a power drill to a screw gun. Bosch is the best!

I love this thing! I was amazed at how powerful it is. This drill will drill through just about everything. I have tried many drills from other brands and they just don't compare.

This is the best drill I've ever owned, bar none! DeWalt, Makita, you name it I've owned it...even the Tim Allen Drill/driver. Nothing I've used matches the torque or the clutch. It is comfortable, and will drill through anything I have touched it to. I was so impressed I bought two! Bosch has made me Blue to the Bone.

The title says it all. When you bring out this drill, You're bringing out the "BIG GUNS!" I kid you not, This is the only cordless drill that I've ever used that has the power of a corded drill. I use it for driving screws, and a corded drill to drill the pilot holes. This way, I dont have to keep changing bits. They say it weighs 15 lbs., but you can't tell it. It feels more like 8. It is really well balanced. The batteries last for ever, and then it only takes an hour to charge them back up. I built three tables before I had to change batteries. If I were Porter-Cable, Dewalt, Milwaulkee or any of the rest, I'd be ashamed. When it comes to cordless drill drivers, this one stands alone and a way out in front. Thanks Bosch, you did it again!

I love my Bosch. This is the best cordless drill on the market.

This new drill by Bosch is a real powerhouse. She packs 18 volts, and turns out a wopping 475 lbs of torque. The weight is well balanced and feels right in your grip. Although this tool is still spanking new, I feel she will proform like a champ even when she is all scuffed up and looking a bit faded in the many years to come.
