I bought this hammer drill on sale and I'm extremely impressed very powerful very small and compact not too heavy. Batteries last a long time.

I previously owned a craftsman 12v. The craftsman was a good drill, but didn't last very long. Bought this Bosch drill as the replacement. To my surprise, this small drill (relatively smaller than the craftsman) packed just as much power as craftsman. Will buy again (hopefully not as a replacement, but as a gift to someone else)!

I have yet to come across a disappointing bosch tool in their 12-V line.

This drill is amazing in every aspect. It really raises the bar for 12-V li-ion power tools.

The most appealing features are:
- Small size, lightweight.
- Very long lasting battery.
- Powerful hammer function (I have to say I only tested it on a piece of concrete walkway as I have not yet had to do any concrete work and it seems to do the job well).
- High torque driving function.
- Nice LED and battery indicator.
- Very nice to have the function selector ring independent on the torque selection ring (as a separate ring); this improves the experience and convenience
- Nice soft carrying case which is as small as possible yet fitting everything with space to spare.
- Looks and feels great!

The small "problems" (between quotations because these are really nit picks, as I have not had any problem with the tool) are:
- Wish it had a belt clip
- Wish the finishing touches were better (battery sticker peeling off, no footpads on the charger).
- Just as like every other cordless tool I have ever experiemented with, this one has a tiny bit of wobbling in the chuck. Doesn't bother me tough, and is completely normal. I never expected this not to have it.

I own many Bosch Tools. This was my first compact 12 volt unit. It has a very nice solid feel in your hand. Reasonably powerful, the hammer function is useful as is the built in battery gauge. It is light weight; useful for overhead work or repetitive tasks like driving screws while hanging panels. Just remember this is not a 18 volt unit and adjust your expectations accordingly.

My husband needed to replace his drill and I bought him this one. He's not a contractor, but loves tools, and good quality ones. He was very impressed with the BOSCH, especially for the price I paid, but next time I'd get one that's more powerful.

Ever had a Bosch tool you didn't like? This little guy is handy and powerful for the size. Low weight makes it nippy and useful. Glad I bought it.

Powerful little drill/hammer. Batteries last a long time. Super light. Love the Lithium-Ion batteries. You can't go wrong with Bosch.

Just the right weight and well balanced. Plenty of power and features that my older drills didn't have. I like it!

so far so good, arrived very quick but then i just received the bits for use. So will be putting this too good use pretty shortly...

I was worried about not getting the larger one 20v I think. This has more torque than other drills that were bought 4+ years ago. Great for home jobs.
