5.0 out of 5 stars THE PORTER CABLE SDS DRILL HITS THE CONCETE HARD!
This three function(hammer, rotation and hammer and rotation) highly versitale, compact sds drill is a must and a excellent chose for the contractor or weekend warrior that wants to drill masonary, cement and other concrete based products, with the greats of ease. I have had this drill for three weeks and like the power and weight for over head and wall drilling...

2.0 out of 5 stars A little weak.
If you really are going to drill alot of 1/2 holes and larger get a drill with more amperage. This drill looks like the big ones, but it's a pussy cat.

This review is from: Porter-Cable 97765 7/8-Inch VSR SDS Rotary Hammer (Tools & Home Improvement)
This three function(hammer, rotation and hammer and rotation) highly versitale, compact sds drill is a must and a excellent chose for the contractor or weekend warrior that wants to drill masonary, cement and other concrete based products, with the greats of ease. I have had this drill for three weeks and like the power and weight for over head and wall drilling applications. The drill is a good tool - as though porter cable would produce a shoddy product. THIS DRILL ROCKS THE CONCRETE HARD!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great tool, February 13, 2000
This review is from: Porter-Cable 97765 7/8-Inch VSR SDS Rotary Hammer (Tools & Home Improvement)
I had a competitor's rotary hammer which I did not really care for. I was looking for a tool such as this from Porter-Cable for some time. It finally became available. The other tool was working, so no real good justification for buying a new Porter-Cable SDS. Well The 'other' tool ended up missing. I needed a tool right away.

This tool is balanced a lot better than the competitors, works fine, and all our power tools are being replaced with Porter-Cable as they are needed and become available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Versatile, compact and cost effective!, July 14, 2001

This review is from: Porter-Cable 97765 7/8-Inch VSR SDS Rotary Hammer (Tools & Home Improvement)
This tool does everything right; it's relatively light and small, yet packs a serious punch! I've used it to accurately knock out cracked bathroom tile fixtures in the hammer-only mode to hammer-drilling holes for gas lines for gas fireplaces. It comes with a very nice carrying case that holds practically everything I need for most jobs; safety glasses, earplugs, a large assortment of drill bits and demo tools. Although I have an assortment of rotary hammers large and small, this one is my favorite for medium size holes and chipping. I highly recommend this tool for anyone in the market for a lightweight 3 mode rotary hammer.

This review is from: Porter-Cable 97765 7/8-Inch VSR SDS Rotary Hammer (Tools & Home Improvement)
Arrived promptly, great tool. It's lighter than some of the other rotohammers I've used, but works very well, and a GREAT price. Hasn't struggled with any of the jobs so far. Recommended.

This review is from: Porter-Cable 97765 7/8-Inch VSR SDS Rotary Hammer (Tools & Home Improvement)
I've hade mine for 3 years and use it all the time. It is very relible and well designed. I am an electrician and use it to chip concrete as well as drill. It's lightweight and has a nice case. I don't use it much now but when I did it was great.
