Review on Impact drill BOSCH GSB 13 RE (0 601 217 100), 600 W blue by Jnis teins

For more than 3 years has not failed even once. The drill is excellent, unless you confuse it with a hammer drill. For strong reinforced concrete, perfect new drills are needed. The rest of the material drills with a bang. He cut through a window with a size of 0.8x2m in a wall 40cm thick made of carbonate blocks, raped her with a 60x18 drill from a puncher (with a cut end switch to clamp it in a cartridge) - the drill withstands everything. Only the keyless chuck began to walk tight after such experiments, but this does not matter either - a couple of hammer blows on the chuck, clogged dust settles and flies out, and everything works again. IMHO, an indestructible device. Never disassembled or lubed anything. Some write about axial runout, but this is probably the result of using it as a grinder or mixer. Although I also inserted 60cm drills converted from SDS (sawn off) into it, there was no beating. I drilled with mounting drills 60 cm long - perfect rotation at the tip. After this drill, I fell in love with the blue Bosch tool.
