    • Compact yet powerful
Style: Bare Tool
Quality drill with lots of torque given the compact size of the hand tool.

    • Great tool, great brand
Style: Bare Tool
My recommendation is to pick a brand and stick with it so all of your batteries are interchangeable. I like Makita brand and have several of their battery operated tools. They are reliable and last a long time (none of mine have ever broke down after years of use). Highly recommend Makita for anyone who wants quality tools that will last a lifetime. -A Handy Man ... show more

    • What's Not To Love About Makita?!
Style: Kit w/ 2.0Ah Batteries
When it comes to power tools, I buy nothing but Makita. None of their tools have ever let me down. I bought this hammer drill to fill the gap between my Makita impact drill/driver and my corded Makita SDS-Plus Rotary Hammer Drill. The rotary hammer is a real beast and it breezes through any concrete drilling job I've ever done. BUT it's big and it's heavy and requires two hands to operate. Sometimes it's just too much drill for a smaller job like drilling a small hole in concrete block to install an anchor or a Tapcon. So this is where the cordless hammer drill comes in handy. It's the perfect tool for those smaller jobs. It's plenty powerful to get the job done in short order, but without the hassle of manhandling the big rotary hammer. It's got all the quality and great features I've come to expect from Makita over the past 20+ years and it's a pleasure to use. It's comfortable in the hand and the power for its fairly compact, lightweight frame is impressive. Its versatility makes it useful in so many different job applications. The Makita LXT battery system is the best in the business! What more could anyone ask for? ... show more

    • I love this hammer drill - fits perfectly into my LXT system - A must have
Style: Bare Tool
Having other Makita 18V LXT items, buying this bare tool was a no brainier for $75 bucks. This is not the most expensive Makita LXT hammer drill. It's upper mid range, but I bought it for a relatively compact size. My use will be limited handyman type stuff, so it will fit that purpose perfectly. Like my other 18V and 18Vx2 Makita cordless tools, they still amaze me with their power and battery life. If you still have the old NiCad power tools where you can only get replacement batteries from China which work maybe 75% of the time, you might want to upgrade. If you upgrade the Makita 18V LXT system is unbeatable in scope of tools and the quality. Yes - Makita is Japanese, and like US companies does manufacture some items in China., And yes, these are manufactured in China. I also have the cordless 7 1/2" circular saw and the chainsaw, both 2 battery 18v x2 = 36V tools. Both are absolute beasts and function so well I almost never use my corded tools anymore, even where I have electricity. The sander, jig saw and saber saw round out a nice set. Seriously, I have enough batteries that use them almost exclusively. ... show more

    • BEST OF THE MAKITA COMPACT DRILLS! - Get this Model
Style: Kit w/ 2.0Ah Batteries
Where to begin.... of all the Makita Drills, this one has more torque and speed over the other LXT compact models. I did a TON of research on drills. Must have spent weeks looking online, comparing them price vs. value, etc. This one beat them all. Once I decided on Makita, then it was determining which model. If you are looking at the brush-less - compact line, this is the one you want, period. You get more speed, more torque in the same package. The extra battery is really nice and the fast charge is awesome. This is contractor grade, I figured if I was going to buy one, I was going to buy it once. Yes, it's more expensive than the other models, but well worth the price. Also the battery capacity is fine for my needs, but you can always buy a bigger one later. I like the smaller ones because they cut down on the weight and hand fatigue. Easy enough to swap and charge. PS: I know it sounds silly, but read the directions on the fast charger, you can change the tune so it plays music when it's done charging lol. ... show more

    • The XPH12R kit does NOT come with a hard case
Style: Kit w/ 2.0Ah Batteries
The drill is nice, powerful yet compact. The grip feels better than a Dewalt, IMO. I really wanted a hard case, and all the pictures and even the description of this item here on Amazon indicate that the kit comes with a hard case (at least at the time I bought it, in Feb 2021). But it does not, it comes with a tool bag. I later looked on Makita's web site and this kit (XPH12R) has never come with a hard case. Hopefully Amazon will fix this incorrect listing. The drill, batteries and charger are great, top notch. I would have given it 5 stars, except for the kit including a bag instead of the hard case. I returned it and bought the Dewalt DCD796D2 kit which is almost identical to the Makita kit and does come with a hard case and actually cost a couple bucks less. ... show more

    • Makita quality
Style: Bare Tool
It is a Makita tool. It just works. It replaced an old Makita XPH06 drill which broke the gearbox. It was a logical choice because it uses the same LXT batteries as the old one. I just wish that a great manufacturer like Makita would not manufacture everything in China.

    • A heavy duty, general purpose drill.
Style: Bare Tool
Marita drills are a class act for everything except extremely hard, heavy jobs, e.g., driving a reamer into steel or thick aluminum plate. (I have an 110V powered drill motor with a handle for 2-handed jobs which would be a better choice for that kind of abuse. The battery (18volt) Makita took it for about an hour before the heat and constant max torque damaged the reduction gear. I bought another as a replacement!) ... show more
