Two-Step Vibration Control
The rotary hammer provides vibration control without compromising performance. It reduces vibrations via a two-step process, originating from the impact mechanism and progressing to the handle, which features rubber dampening elements on the top and bottom.

Powered by an 8-amp motor, the hammer weighs 7.7 pounds and provides 2.6 ft./lbs. of impact energy, making it the one of the best rotary hammers in its class.

For better control and accurate bit starting, the rotary hammer boasts a variable speed three-finger trigger (0-4,000 bpm; 0-900 rpm).

Three Modes of Operation for Versatile Use
The rotary hammer offers three modes of operation. Use the multifunction selector to choose rotary hammer, hammer only, or rotation only mode. An integral clutch helps minimize torque reaction, and a 360-degree auxiliary handle further enhances project flexibility.

This review is from: Bosch RH328VC 1-1/8-Inch SDS Rotary Hammer (Tools & Home Improvement)

I first bought the Makita 1 1/8 inch SDS-Plus Rotary Hammer. There were a couple problems with it. The side grip was really hard to position because there are these notches. So the the whole grip had to be removed and then re-positioned again and push down back into place. I used it once. Then when I tried using it again a couple months later, it wouldn't work. So I returned it and bought this one.

First off, their is no comparison between the Bosch and the Makita. I used it to drill a bunch of 5/8 inch holes and it drilled through concrete like butter. The Side grip is very easy to adjust and the depth guide works great. Oh the Makita, you had to tightened the handle as tight as possible to hold the guide, and still it would slide up when drilling.

This drill has an SDS-Plus chuck. I don't think it mentioned that in the description. Overall I'm very happy with this, and highly recommend it.

This is a nice tool. It comes with a big storage box that you can put lots of bits in. We even bought a small box of Bosch SDS bits and it fits right into the box, nice. Like Bosch does, it comes with a nice long cord on it. No complaints.

Used for first time today. Worked great. Drilled through concrete like butter and no vibration either. Very light and powerful for its size. Very happy with purchase!
