Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good one.

Got pros: Compared to my old one (also Bosch, but green series and ~10 years old) it is much more compact and lighter! quite quiet at low revs. Has some cons: Not a drawback (for the money), but there is no rpm stabilization under load, which makes it a bit difficult to sand the surface with a disc when stable rpm is needed.

Unsatisfactory quality, I won't buy it anymore.

Received this drill as a gift. Immediately there was a very tight reverse button. Broke through three holes. They handed it over for repair, the service said "it's their own fault, it was not necessary to press the button like a dog. " It's upsetting to me. I did not expect such a terrible quality from Bosch! I do not recommend.

The quality is at zero, very sorry for the money spent.

I took it instead of the killed Kanokovskaya 550w for 13 years and was very disappointed the old one wound me around itself, and this one can be stopped by hand under load, the cartridge smokes constantly weakens, in short crap, I will take another

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

My first drill, the previous one, worked faithfully for 5 years, I just decided to ate it and gave the old one to my neighbor in the country, so I decided to buy it again. And I don't wish for it.

Pros
  • Powerful reliable drill, keyless chuck, one-piece metal, ratchet mechanism, speed control, impact, made in 2022.
Cons
  • No storage case.

I expected mediocre quality, but it was a pleasant surprise.

The main thing: as a screwdriver, this device is so-so, it is possible and it can be very useful, but only limited use in repair and construction work. The starting speed is too high and the force depends too much on pressing the button (i. E. , on speed, at a minimum and no effort, it can’t turn everything. In other words, the speed is adjusted as simpler, and not as correct for a professional tool it would be), therefore, in one fell swoop to drive a large group of screws into a material that

Pros
  • [Sorry that there will be letters and dots instead of normal names in the text, but the native robot has become even dumber than it was (if you know what I mean), thinks that I write about shops] Just bought, 30 first holes and 30 first screws, so the review is superficial. - Oddly enough, the fact that there is no case is good. Complete cases are just a container, a nonsense thing with a beautiful appearance (and that's not a fact), but I use normally made tool carriers. And it would be a pity to throw out the case. That would be an extra thing in the house. Why is she? - a fairly smooth descent, which at least somehow allows you to use a drill as a screwdriver in not very responsible work. Well, the rotary limiter on the descent helps not to twist the screw beyond measure. size decides. Often you have to climb somewhere with one hand, in another city it is very difficult to do this with a full-size domestic drill, but here everything is like native. - everything else that is said about her here is true.
Cons
  • - the chuck is quick-clamping, but with a click, and not with a smooth clamp. I have not yet figured out how to use it correctly, everything seems to work, but it’s unusual and sometimes it barely turns away. Apparently, I just don't know everything about it :) In short, there was no such misunderstanding with analogues from DeW. T and M. Ita. Probably needs to be dealt with separately. - no built-in light. Personally, I don’t care, I don’t work without powerful light on my head, but still. - there is not enough magnet on the handle to hold a bit and a couple of drills on it.

In general, everything is not bad, but I expected more.

I don't understand why there are so many positive reviews. Apparently this wow effect is akin to Luntiks with aliexpress - they just bought it and immediately scribble a review. So, I share invaluable experience after a year of use. 1) The drill is weak. At low speeds, the cartridge stops with two fingers without difficulty. Accordingly, drilling metal is not about this drill. 2) Sleeve instead of bearing on the shaft. I don’t know what to call it, but in my opinion Bosch is just mocking…

Pros
  • All switches are comfortable, lie well in the hand, the case material is tactilely pleasant, the cord is more or less soft.
Cons
  • The keyless chuck begins to unwind over time, the sleeve on the shaft inside instead of the bearing, very weak power at low speeds

The product does not match the description, poor quality.

I bought this drill 3 years ago, I wanted to use it as a drill-driver, but I immediately knew that there was a slight backlash of the cartridge to the sides, the alignment was off, as a result, screwing a self-tapping screw with a length of more than 4 cm is a problem, it turns from side to side, from -for which the bit constantly flies off the self-tapping screw. The same applies to drills over 5 mm, it hits metal, although thinner ones just bend a little, and drill well. The reverse jammed a

Pros
  • Keyless chuck, reverse, impact
Cons
  • Inaccurate centering, weak impact, reverse sticking

The best thing Ive ever used, a great item for everyone!

Drills well, and the cartridge is very convenient. Clamped into it and drills on concrete, exposing so that they would not beat the norms. But it's hard on concrete. Overheats. Perhaps the impact mechanism has already been demolished, but rarely drilled on concrete. In general, there is no puncher function in it, it crumbles a soft wall. And if a monolith where a good mixture of concrete is very difficult for him, you will have to buy a perforator.

Pros
  • Excellent drill good cartridge
Cons
  • There is no perforator from it

The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

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

Pros
  • Drilling accuracy, ergonomics, excellent work on any material, except for high-quality reinforced concrete.
Cons
  • Heavy drilling in reinforced concrete.

Reliable product for all occasions, quality on par.

I have a turnkey cartridge - I trust them more. Different pros: Great car. Many times they tried to use it as a puncher and, resting against opposite walls, drilled concrete. Of course, nothing came of this, because. understand this is not a perforator! But the drill withstood such loads up to a complete stop. It drills “light” wall materials and metal without any hassle. Due to the adjustment of the rotation and the “with gradual pressing” button, the machine is convenient and should be used…

I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

I bought this drill back in the last millennium, it has gone through many repairs, housework and gardening, it still works great. I even worked as a mixer, nothing too. Swiss made. You need to understand that this is never a puncher, good concrete does not take at all. But in some brick - like clockwork (if necessary). The lace is short, if you work closer to the ceiling - an extension cord is needed. Very convenient cartridge, did not loosen up, did not play. Periodically it is worth…

Pros
  • Convenient, reliable, good chuck, metal drilling depth limiter.
Cons
  • Short cord, no case.

Product is not reliable, not worth buying.

I invested more in it than I gave for it. During the year, the reverse switch constantly failed, the gearbox changed (the rotating mechanism wedged). Then the beating of the cartridge appeared, while I manage somehow. In general, I got a problem copy.

I don’t know why they sell a drill without strictly writing that it is not for concrete ! Why draw a hammer and hint that it can be used as a puncher? IMMEDIATELY write that IF you use it as a puncher, then the drill, more precisely, the chuck clamp will break very quickly ! And then it will not be customary for most amateurs to buy such a drill in order to hang the same curtains or a hanger in the hallway, it will be cheaper to call the master ((((

Pros
  • there is a storage case)
Cons
  • The cartridge (keyless) is no good! I don’t know who and where arranges competitions for quick drill replacement . BUT this is ridiculous, such convenience is only necessary for competitions, and not for work. I then need to drill one hole with one drill ! The drills turn after several drillings in concrete, from here it only needs to be drilled wood and mayonnaise instead of a mixer), but for this you need to buy a nozzle like a whisk)

I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

Bought many years ago to use in the countryside. Drilled not that very much, but often "to the stop." Now, having bought a new apartment, I moved it here, but I rarely use it. The interroom tongue-and-groove is drilled even with an Ikea screwdriver, but for concrete it is still much better and more correct to use a hammer drill. However, I made a few holes in shock mode. Completely works. The main thing is not to save on drills yet. In general, IMHO, the main thing is to remember that this…

Pros
  • Powerful and reliable
Cons
  • No carrying case

Not a bad product, but you can do better.

In general, there were no complaints until the repair began and began to work with the device constantly. There is enough power to drill through a partition, or a brick (with a drill bit). But, there is no declared drilling in concrete (up to 13 mm) in our monolithic house, except for 13 mm maximum depth, and not diameter. And even with constant work, you begin to notice little things that, with rare use, are not striking. For example, that the reverse sticks, and turns on every other time…

Pros
  • Keyless chuck, convenient, powerful enough
Cons
  • The reverse turns on every other time, the landing of the cartridge

The average product, you can find a better one.

The hammer/drill switch stopped working properly after 2 weeks. There was initially some kind of weak click, and then the fixation disappeared altogether. Repaired. The reverse is fixed poorly, the button pops up all the time, you have to press it constantly during operation. A serious backlash, up to the point that the holes are a little larger in diameter, you can, of course, take this into account and take less drills, but this is some kind of nonsense. The cartridge does not hold the…

Pros
  • sonorous name
Cons
  • blow / drill switch flies, reverse pops up, weak cartridge, backlash
