Great product, best quality.

There is an adjustment of the rotation speed, as well as switching to drilling with impact. Lies well in the hand. Good quality. I recommend to buy.

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

For a long time I was looking for a similar one from Interskol and other firms. We got all the wrong speed, no matter how slow it down. Well, this drill can also come in handy somewhere with a drill no more than 6mm to drill a hole in concrete using the possibility of impact drilling. But on drills I don’t take such opportunities seriously, for this I have a more powerful hammer drill. But it’s just better not to drill them 20 mm holes in the metal, although it is 3.5 times more powerful. A…

Pros
  • I liked the very ability to drill metal with a low number of revolutions. For example, try drilling a car spring and you will immediately understand the beauty of low revolutions of the drill. Recently, I had to drill several holes with a diameter of 20 mm in a 60 or two-inch pipe in a different way. The drill did an excellent job of not breaking out its hands like any other would. hands
Cons
  • The price is too high.

There are disadvantages, but the product is usable.

I bought it to work on the walls, the last Makita worked for six years, drilled everything. Unfortunately the engine burned out. I took a similar model, but missed. Traditional impact drill - the form is familiar, worked out, 2 speeds, not heavy. But drilling agrees at best a brick. And even in it, to drill, for example, a place for a box or an outlet - in question, you can toil for half an hour. There is no talk about concrete at all, although the old drill coped. Now I have to carry a…

Pros
  • Good plastic, comfortable in hands, 2 speeds
Cons
  • Weak, heats up, shock mode turns off

Not everything is so bad, the average purchase in quality.

Good design, easy to use. If not for the shoals, it would be possible to recommend for purchase. Impact mode tends to turn off. Sometimes. This is especially effective during drilling. The move stops, you push harder, but she still doesn’t go any further. And only when smoke comes out of the hole, you stupidly understand that you are just heating the drill. At the same time, to drill concrete, there is not enough power, but to grind the lining, it is quite enough. It gets very hot when used…

Pros
  • Speed ​​control, good case
Cons
  • Weak, heated, gearbox needs attention

It's not a bad product, but I expect more.

Pretty nice design model. Unfortunately, with many pluses there are global minuses. First and foremost, she's just weak. Wood, plastic, metal drills normally, and if you need to work on the walls, then you first need to think. Brick drills well. But with a concrete wall, a misfire can come out. Some boards don't fit. The second minus: the shock mode is turned off from time to time. Right during operation, the switch moves out, and the shock disappears completely. Taking into account the fact

Pros
  • High-quality plastic, low noise, speed adjustable
Cons
  • Impact mode switch walks, low power

One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

Good speed controller. there is emphasis. enough power for the eyes. I drilled wood with a 50 mm pen with no problems. I did not use the percussion mechanism, there was no need. And now I also bought a perforator. She has 2 speeds, but the speed is enough for 1st speed, so I don’t turn on the 2nd one. In general, in vain they put the gearbox only added weight. Convenient suitcase.

Pros
  • Basically everything is fine. I have owned it for 5 years. But I rarely use it.
Cons
  • Too heavy. If you work with one hand, and so normal.

Reliable product for all occasions, quality on par.

It so happened that I was presented with this drill when I myself bought the same in terms of functionality, but produced by KZMI. One difference is that there is no speed switch on the gearbox on Konakovskaya. Since I used them in approximately the same way during repairs, and Konakov’s one was even harder at work, such as stirring tile adhesive, I can say that in terms of price / quality ratio, the advantage is far from Makita’s favor. At KZMI, the cartridge (and everything else) still does…

Pros
  • Pretty "grasping" body, electronic speed control. A very versatile tool for housework.
Cons
  • The hammer drill switch is too easy to switch, it sometimes spontaneously jumps to the "hammer" when it is not needed. The cartridge unexpectedly surprised me - the keyholes became loose after six months of use - in addition to rotation, you have to pull the key towards the teeth on the cartridge, otherwise it slips. Although the drill clamps as it should.

A completely ordinary product, nothing remarkable.

In work every day, so a certain opinion has developed. The old Makita was stolen from me after almost 10 years of work, so there is something to compare. I bought it without hesitation, I chose an analogue of the one that was in terms of characteristics and appearance. The comparison is not in favor of the new model. Firstly, a clear lack of power - obviously not everyone takes concrete - you have to carry a hammer drill with you. Due to the low power, overheating should be noted - when…

Pros
  • Good case, light and comfortable.
Cons
  • Insufficient power, heats up, unreliable gearbox.

A practical product, nothing to complain about.

Excellent drill if you follow the gearbox. Pros below: Bought with made in Japan cartridge. Those. complete absence of beat. The impact is not active in idle mode when there is no pressure on the drill. The mode with impact on concrete is relevant up to 6mm. 6mm is already hard. Great drill, but there is one thing. Has cons: A problematic gearbox is demanding on the quality and quantity of lubricant. If the gearbox heats up at idle or gets very hot at low load, then lubrication revision. It is…

I like it, thank you for the quality product.

I took it for the weekend, to make several holes in the balcony slab, which I had previously drilled with a purely domestic B&D about 500W (I don’t remember the model, it was a long time ago). I’m not arguing, I’m just sure that under similar loads Makita will survive at least 2 B&D, but still, B&D drills concrete better (similar drills are used), which means it is more versatile for domestic use. Sorry, for a completely incorrect comparison, but Hamer (~ 550 W), "hollows" concrete easier…

Pros
  • Ergonomic (comfortable grip), hole depth limiter, Good rotational power (720W, I believe)
Cons
  • Pound badly. Practically does not hammer, but "scratches" the concrete. Saves only the power of rotation and pressure of 30-50 kg (namely, power, not speed, because when pressed at about 50 kg, many drills lose speed and even "stop") Gear changes are tight and only when the head is rotated (maybe it should be?) It costs almost like a semi-professional perf., but it's not worth it.

Poor Grip: Power Tools

I bought this particular drill a few years ago and was disappointed when I first used it with a home plumbing drill bit. I couldn't make a hole through the top plate without the clutch slipping. Using a brand new bit straight out of the box it should drill through with no problem. Makita has put an end to this problem! I have several other Makita tools and they are good tools but this one is not at all. Check out another model or brand.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Big and Bulky

Good drill fits drill

This is a great impact drill for everyday tasks. It has good performance and nice features like LED light. At first I thought the light was a trick, but when it was evening and I was in the building with no lights, the light was great. I've tried other punchers but for the money you can't beat this one. Of course, if you use this tool all day, there are better options. I bought a Makita HP2070F for an all day puncher and it's a beast.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Go and buy Milwaukee 5387-22!

A long time Milwaukee drill fan (and extremely lucky owner of the venerable 1984 Milwaukee 5371 2sp hammer drill!) I bought this Makita for a co-worker at his request - and it was cheaper too ! Remember this is a 2 speed geared impact drill. So when we hooked them up, we tried using a 1-1/8 inch marine screw in a 2x6 - guess what - clutch worked - CLUTCH? a nice touch on a low power drill - a small drill like this needs a clutch! This is not a cordless screwdriver, but a "heavy duty" drill…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly creased
