 Somewhat disappointed July 23, 2007

I've had good luck with Makita over recent years, so I picked this hammer drill up on sale at HD. It seems well-made and powerful, but I'm disappointed in the keyless chuck, which cannot grab any hammer drill bit very tightly, leading to the chuck spinning around a stationary drill bit on occasion. The chuck is at least partly plastic, and seems to have a built-in stop mechanism which prevents it from turning any tighter, and I've tried bits from a couple different makers, all with the same result. Also, even with brand new bits, this drill doesn't drive through concrete block like it should, not very much better than my old B&D drill did with standard masonry bits. With the hammer driver off, it's an excellent standard drill, and I use it for that now with good results. But I'm already looking for a new hammer drill. I'd suggest you pay a bit more and get a good keyed metal chuck on whichever model you buy.

Used a discounted Hammer drill and burnt it out.I purchased this Makita because of the price and that it is a Makita drill.I have 2 Makita drills and I have had them for years.I have used this drill to drill through solid concrete block in my home to run cable.The drill did a fantastic job.For the money this is a good buy,I recommend it.

Bottem line, Drill performs well. My only complaint is the plastic chuck is cheap and I would rather have a metal one. The chuck work well with no problems. The built in light seemed like a gimick to me. I have to admit. The built in light works well. My last heavly worked makita lasted me 10 years so the brand is good value.
