Review on πŸ”₯ Metabo BS LTX 3 LiHD Kit: Unleash Exceptional Performance and Power by Michael Hughes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great drill, still made in Germany

Excellent drill. I tend to be hard on my tools which means I do projects that can stress them out. I've noticed that most of the power tools I buy now are short lived. My last DeWalt impact drill took less than 30 minutes, a few new Craftsman tools melted while working, etc. For some reason, the old tools generally seem to be more durable than the new ones I've been using, although others may be different have experiences . I bought this drill bit to replace a drill bit that melted under heavy use and so far I'm very happy with it. I used to replace a broken angle grinder (a handyman that took about 30 minutes to cut concrete) with a Metabo. The Metabo has held up great and I think it will be with me for the rest of my life. This instrument was still made by Metabo in Germany at the time I bought it and appears to be very well made. I know that Metabo recently merged with Hitachi and has now been bought by the giant American conglomerate KKR. I doubt this will be a good answer to Metabo's quality in the long run, I hope I'm wrong. I suspect it's better to buy Metabo now than wait for KKR to add shareholder value. Here, too, I hope that Metabo will not change. If not, I will definitely buy more in the future. Currently Metabo is great and I highly recommend Metabo. Also, I bought it in an open box from Revain. A battery is missing. Revain solved the problem exactly with no problems. THANK YOU AMAZONE! It's no secret why Revain is so successful - the customer service is fantastic!
