Review on πŸ”¨ Bosch RH1255VC SDS Max Rotary Hammer: Superior Power and Precision for Demanding Projects by Will Murphy

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Too heavy for anything but drilling or cutting.

Not impressed as it's so heavy it can't be used for what I normally use a hammer drill for. Side and corner drillings in the chimney. I'm sure it's amazing for splitting or drilling, but for me it's too heavy for anything but that. I don't blame the drill itself, but I know it takes a BIG person to put this drill in any situation other than up/down. I have drilled thousands of holes with a 1 9/16" or 1 1/2" hammer drill and my favorite products are Bosch products. But it's a real beast that I can't handle.

Pros
  • Vibration control for all-day comfort
Cons
  • unreliable
