STRONG AND VERSATILE DRILL FOR ALL THE JOBS. BOUGHT A LITHIUM BATTERY TO COMPLETE THE DEAL . USE FOR LIGHT AND HARD CORE JOBS.
Purchased this Drill on the reviews I had read in this forum. I am pleased with the product and to this point completely satisfied with the product and my decision to purchase it!!
I bought this for some work in my garage that has cinder block walls. This is the best tool I have ever purchased. Even without the Lithium Ion batteries this has plenty of power to get the job done. I was using it with Tapcon bits and screws and they worked like a charm.
One thing to note when buying this, pick up a few extra bits. Until you get used to a hammer drill, you will destroy a few bits. You have to keep constant pressure on the screw or as the hammer motion pulls out while spinning it will twist the end and you need a new bit. No fault of the bit or the drill, thats just...

There is an automatic light which is a nice feature when working in low-light locations. The keyless chuck is very easy to tighten and loosen and doesn't require an iron grip.
One downside, I dropped the battery from about 4 feet onto a plywood floor and it cracked. Not a huge problem as it still works, but I wonder if the battery pack formula could be reworked to be a little less brittle.
In my job a powerfull drill it's a key for the susscess, i need presicion, speed, and quality, my co-workers use a diferent brands they have been using the same for many years, them i chose Craftsman Hammer drill C3, today i have been working in my company for four years and all my tools are Craftsman. i'm a satelite installer and i use my Hammer drill and my inpact drill every day, and in four years i just change my Hammer drill just 3 mounths ago thats a good average right, while my co-workers have to repair theirs twice a year i don't worry about that, and the best part was when lithium batteries...
read full review »Great torgue, great chuck system holds the bits really well, I think becuase the chuck is made of metal and not plastic. I really like the balance and feel of the rubber handle. Worth the price!
An amazingly powerful drill for the price it is listed at, and being part of the 19.2-volt line makes it easy when it comes to maximizing up time. A Hi-Low setting sits on top of the drill, which helps when you start holes on a low setting then drill at a higher setting. I've drilled through concreate and never had to struggle with this tool, and with a quick bit change you will go from drilling concreate to driving screws into an anchor in no time. It comes with 3 setting, hammer, driving, and drilling, which give this tool many uses for the user. The dept stop rod that comes with the drill makes...
