    • Solid Rotohammer
Works good for your around the house type stuff. Seems like with that amount of use it will last a long time. Costs like $50 to rent one at Depot for 4 hours. Just buy this one!

    • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Cordless BEAST! Beyond Capable—The Best Money I’ve Spent on a Tool
Let's not mince words: the DeWalt 20V MAX SDS+ Rotary Hammer (tool-only or kit) is a game-changer. I have used standard hammer drills for years, thinking they were "good enough." This tool proves that "good enough" is simply wasting time and effort. This rotary hammer is professional-grade power packed into a cordless form factor that is just phenomenal . Proof of Performance: It Kicked Ass on Brick I recently took on a big project building a porch and needed to anchor heavy support brackets directly into an old, tough brick foundation. This is usually a painstaking, vibration-heavy job. With the DeWalt SDS+ and a quality masonry bit, the process was lightning fast. I'm talking drilling perfect, clean holes into solid brick like it was soft wood. The entire mounting process, which I budgeted half a day for, was finished in less than an hour. The power delivery is controlled, yet relentless—it just chews through concrete, mortar, and brick effortlessly. 100% Worth the Investment Since that porch project, I've found a dozen reasons to pull this tool out. From setting concrete anchors for a new fence post to chipping away tile adhesive (using the chipping function), this tool handles it all. The cordless mobility is essential for jobsite use, and the vibration dampening is surprisingly good, meaning you can run it longer without hand fatigue. If you are a DIYer tackling serious masonry, or a professional looking for unmatched cordless drilling efficiency, this tool is 100% worth the price of admission. It performs well above its weight class and will make your toughest tasks feel ridiculously simple. Don't hesitate—buy this hammer. ... show more

    • Not bad
Using a 20 volt 6 hour battery, it cuts out under any load when you pull the trigger all the way. Other than that I like it.

    • Pequeño pero poderosos
Un rotomartillo pequeño, bajo en peso, muy cómodo para trabajar, tiene suficiente potencia para usos regular. Lo probé en roca arenizca compacta con una broca 5/8, es la máxima que recomienda el fabricante y con una batería de 4amp. Primero tenía una broca algo estropeada y se calentaba hasta el punto de detenerse. Luego conseguí una broca nueva y estaba haciendo un promedio de 12 huecos de 25cm de profundidad con una sola carga de la batería, con un calentamiento normal diría yo. Con brocas más pequeñas y cortas en superficies como ladrillo o concreto no tiene ningún problema, al contrario, hay que tener cuidado porque desprende la mampostería y rompe los ladrillos sólidos. Un buen rotomamrtillo. ... show more
