  • Worth it
Style: Magnetic Drill
Very nice machine for a reasonable price.

  • Decent for the $
Style: Magnetic Drill
I have always wanted a mag drill. I have a double frame project that convinced me to spend the $. Pleased with the drill. I’d like to see it a bit tougher, but for the $, it does well. I have drilled 50+ 5/8 holes in truck frame rail. I didn’t miss. It does require care, and not bullet proof by any means, the cords on the outside, with plastic conduit type fittings are not likely to last the industrial use the drill will incur? I’m pleased, but I know I won’t use a lot. If you are going to use more than occasionally, spend twice the $ and get a more industrial machine. If it’s a rare use, this will fill the need. ... show more

  • One of thsoe tools you never knew you needed and cant live without.
Style: Magnetic Drill
I'm starting a small metal fabrication business and picked up this Mag Drill. I had previously purchased an Evolution Metal Saw and was impressed with it so purchased the EvoMag42. The drill has some restrictions that are common to all mag drills (distance from the bit to the base) that you have to overcome but this thing is great. The magnet is more than powerful enough to hold on to whatever you need (Though I haven't tried it upside down yet.) The bits are easy to change and it comes with a standard drill chuck as well even though the listing states it doesn't. You will get messy if you use the included oil feed system but the cut quality is great. There is also a lot of adjust ability with the depth so you can use the drill on a stand more like a drill press, or to drill on a raised piece of steel. I paired this drill with Evolution Annular Cutters and Bosch Cobalt Bits and it chews through steel like nothing. It is pretty noise so hearing protection is recommended. My only complaint is the locking lever to set your height does slip a little over time if doing multiple holes. This could cause problems if truing to do a repeatable precise depth hole. Otherwise, if just putting holes in steel, you wont have a problem. ... show more

  • Best warranty and customer service!
Style: Magnetic Drill
I purchased the EVOMAG42 February of '23. I had an issue with the head creeping down when I retracted it to the top. I called customer service to ask them what I could do to to repair it. They informed me that it had a three year warranty to send it to them. They paid shipping both ways. They received it on a Monday morning, repaired it and shipped it out that same evening. It works like a champ. Thank you for the outstanding company that you are. ... show more

  • Fast hole drilling
Style: S28MAG
Beats drilling with regular bits. Very good quality Magdeill for a fraction of the big name brands. The magnet is strong and holds well on 1/8” thick or greater material.

  • Carriage set screw slips constantly
Style: S28MAG
The media could not be loaded. Drill holes great but carriage set screw slips and I can't find any other screws to adjust tension so that's annoying. It has a little plastic knob to tension it so it appears one day soon I will crank down and it might snap off. Also the drill will not stay it its upmost position and again I cannot find any other tensions screws that would address this. ... show more

  • Avoid Vera Tools seller (drill might be ok)
Style: Magnetic Drill
I hesitate to rate at 1 star but I am doing it to hopefully save others some headaches. The drill is probably good as other evolution products I own are but the "Vera Tools" seller is selling clearly used items as new. My drill arrived in a beat up box (see pictures) and the drill itself is scratched with labels pealing. I tried it once and the mag couldn't even hold the drill down on my all metal welding table against the force of the bit on the workpiece. I tried it vertically on the side of my welding table and the mag couldn't hold up its own weight. I am CERTAIN this is not how a new drill would perform.....but Vera Tools is selling used and apparently defective Tools. I ordered a second one thinking the first was a fluke. It wasn't. Both were used. Other sellers are $100+ more expensive but probably are new tools. Avoid Vera Tools seller. I'm buying a third from another seller and will update when it arrives. ... show more

  • As advertised!
Style: S28MAG
The case was up to the task of keeping it safe, although it took a beating in transport, the drill was all there and works as described. The drill is well built and ready for a workout as soon as the assembly is complete. Assembly is simple and that is good since the instructions don't really cover it well. I have used it to cut through 1/4 and 1/2 inch steel plate with no issues other than the oil can. The oil dispenser is a waste of time 90% of the oil gets thrown all over the place, because the oil is dropped through the chuck and gets spun off the bit at 500 RPM. I removed it and have gone back to a simple old oil can. That is the only draw back I have found in the last two days of working it hard. ... show more
