Super

I've only used this drill for a short period and already I'm very impressed. The range of features for the price is really quite remarkable and I'm delighted that it's British designed. First of all it's not too heavy and very ergonomic to operate. There are four very useful and easily selectable modes of operation: normal drilling for wood and for paint stirring/plaster mixing; hammer drilling for concrete, brickwork, etc.; fixed chiselling when control of the chisel angle is important; and, free chiselling when it's OK for the chisel to turn as it encounters resistance. In each mode the speed can be controlled by varying the pressure on the trigger or by turning the speed control dial and locking the trigger in the On position - very useful for long operations like plaster mixing. Then there's the reversing switch, which makes extraction of drills stuck in wood so much easier. Finally, the side handle can be easily locked in any positron for better control of the drill. In operation, the hammer action is very efficient, making chiselling operations effortless. All in all, a great tool and the fifth from this maker I've been impressed with, others being their RAGE3-S+ Multi-Purpose Sliding Mitre Saw, their Mitre Saw Stand with Extensions, their RAGE1-B Multi-Purpose Circular Saw and their Diamond Blade for cutting concrete etc. - and I suspect it won't be my last. Highly recommended.

I love this drill! I was borrowing one to do some DIY on our new house and realised I should probably buy my own for the amount of work I was using it for. That one was an expensive brand, but I prefer this one by far.It still has a huge amount of power, but never feels like it will run away with it. Good selection of bits included. Only shame was that mine arrived without the case. This didn’t bother me though, as I have enough tool boxes to store it in.

Product was a good price. Accurate and professional quality.

This is an amazing, quality, all purpose drilling machine. I am thoroughly impressed with the machine and cannot fault it yet in any way, a very rugged and ergonomic design and quality cable.Having read several negative comments here I have come to the conclusion that they should not be allowed to use this kind of equipment without adult supervision. The extra power it has over "branded" units is very apparent when it's dropping a 20mm hole through concrete composite. It'll also add extra width by plunging 25-32 bits down a predrilled 20mm hole without any stress. You just needed be commonsensical about speed settings. As with all SDS units allow drill to do the work and apply only supportive pressure, for best results.Instructions are pretty poor and arranged at people with previous experience in operating similar machinery. If this machine will fail at any time in the future it would most likely be down to the trigger/speed assembly breaking. This is a standard failing on this kind of machine, BUT enclosed handle design eliminates direct damage.Brush or blow off after user to keep workings cleanUseful case, but it won't last too long.Overall: For £54.00 you can't go wrong and it will last most people a lifetime.
