I bought this with some hesitation based on the other reviews. And it's delivered accordingly. The instructions are useless, but luckily its a drill, so there's not much to figure out. The parts list is in German, so I'll need to find another one once I need parts. And I'm pretty certain I will. It came with an extra set of brushes, and the fact it started to smoke and smell of burning plastic/rubber after a few tapcon holes, I figured I wouldn't need to keep track of them for long.
Everything about it screams cheap, but for $60, what do you expect? Hundreds for a better one that will last, weighed against running this one into the ground left me with the decision to buy this one. I have a building I'm rehabbing, and if it makes it through all the concrete work I need to do, I'll be pleased. So far the brushes haven't burnt through, but I feel it a good idea to 'brush up' on my German nonetheless.
I wish they'd just send a drill in a case and knock off $5. The crappy goggles, gloves, bits, dab of grease - why? I haven't used the bits that came with it, and am a bit afraid to since this drill doesn't have any kind of clutch to keep your wrist/arm from breaking if the bit gets jammed or breaks.
Cheap hammer drill for cheap. So far, it's doing its job. It's got the power if it doesn't burn up.Get more detail about Heavy-Duty 3-Function 1" Impact Hammer Drill, SDS-Plus Bits, Chisels.
