Customer Review: A really good cordless drill
My son gave me my first 18-volt cordless drill (Black & Decker) four years ago. It was adequate for light use, but lacked power.

Customer Review: Working great
Needed to make 3, 3/4 inch holes 4 inches deep in a concrete slab. A 60 year old concrete slab. I mention the age because as concrete ages it continues to harden. This drill worked fine using Bosch Blue Granite carbide bits. I first drilled a 1/4 inch hole. That hole actually was the slowest hole to drill. Then drilled it out to 3/4 inch in steps using 1/8 inch larger drill sizes. For the last 3/4 inch hole I used a bit made NOT by Bosch and the carbide tip chipped badly on the second and third holes. Caused by the hard aggregate in the slab concrete. The Bosch bits took it all in good shape. Probably took me 10 minutes each hole because of all of the bit swapping. Sure a Hilti would have done a hole in 30 seconds and it should for what it costs. Other choice was to rent a Hilti for about half of what the Bosch cost.
Customer Review: Mine burned out too
I have to join the others to report that my drill burned out drilling 5/32″ holes in concrete for Tapcon screws. I did have it for a few years but it didn’t get a lot of use. The only mitigating factor here is that I did use the drill to mix thin-set mortar and drywall compound about a dozen times. I was careful not to stress the motor too much when doing this, but it could have caused the early failure. Overall, I’m a big fan of Bosch tools. I love the planer, jig saw and angle grinder. I hear good things about their rotary hammers too. Second only to Hilti. But I think I’ll try the Milwaukee hammer drill next. It has a five year warranty and I’ll be sure to hold on to my receipt.
