Use the selector lever to choose the hammerdrill or drill only for steel, wood, or aluminum. Kit includes 360-degree handle, depth gauge, and carrying case.

Used it for 10 minutes - got hotter than the dickens. Returned it for a Dewalt 505. Much better.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bosch factory reconditioned means beat-up and rusty, January 6, 2009

I've bought a lot of reconditioned products from other manufacturers before and always found them to be hard to tell from new. Not so with Bosch. My hammer drill came with a rusty chuck, dirt & scratches, and the case was all beat-up. I contacted CPO Bosch and never heard back. If you want like-new, stay away from Bosch factory reconditioned.

Bought this drill about a year ago, and have used it a few times since then. It doesn't get daily use, since I only take it out for drilling in concrete, but it has proven to be a workhorse. Just finished drilling a couple of dozen holes for Tapcons IMPERIAL 11285 "TAPCON" PHILLIPS FLAT HEAD MASONRY ANCHOR 3/16x1-3/4" to install backer board. Even though this is not one of those fancy new SDS drills (this is the one at the top of my wishlist, if you're not a professional but you're serious about masonry work have a look at this: Bosch 11255VSR BULLDOG Xtreme 1-inch SDS-plus D-Handle Rotary Hammer), with the appropriate hammer-drill compatible masonry bit Bosch HCBG02 5/32" x 6" Blue Granite Carbide Hammer Drill Bit I hardly had to apply any pressure at all and the job was done in no time (don't get regular rotary-only masonry bits, they wear out after just a few holes in my experience).
Highly recommended if your usage pattern matches mine; Bosch reconditioned tools have always looked spotless to me and performed well.
