Garvee 1600W SDS-Max Demolition Jack Hammer Drill, 1-9/16" 13-Amp Corded Electric Heavy Duty Demo Chipping Hammer Concrete/Pavement Breaker with 1 Drill Bits, Point Chisel, Carrying Case

For the price I don't think this can be beat.. Seems as powerful as the Makita 40V battery one. That picture is drilling through hard basalt rock with 2" Bosch bit.

Needed a hole (4 inch) drilled into brick and concrete, so I bought this. Initially I borrowed a Milwaukee SDS MAX hammer drill to start it, but my chisel was too short to hammer out the core. I bought the https://www.garvee.com/dp/B09VL214TR?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 but I broke the SDS+ shaft when using it with the 4 inch (100mm) blade. I knew that I needed an SDS MAX drill to complete my task using the larger SDS MAX shaft. This drill came with everything (except the 2 pc brushes). Use the "Advanced Lubricant" to lube the bit end that goes into the chuck. This moves when hammering so it does need to be lubricated. I opened the 4 prong cap and it was full of grease already. I also bought an 18 in SDS MAX chisel to remove the core after drilling. This new drill worked great with the hammering. The description says 3 modes but it only has 2. The center (up) mode, is used to rotate the chisel bit by hand. When in the Hammer Mode, the bit will not rotate. You would never use this as a DRILL ONLY because it is so heavy. So the drill only mode is not needed. To conclude my review, the Towallmark worked just as well as the Milwaukee. If I used this often, then I would buy the Milwaukee, but for what I need, this works just fine. I would recommend it for any homeowner.

It's very lightweight, but powerful. Good for residential and light commercial use. In this demonstration, a 12 inch Bosch concrete bench. I went thru almost 12 inches of face brick. It is not as heavy duty as a name brand but definitely worth having in your toolbox. It took about 4-6 minutes per hole, constant coring. It did not get hot nor overheat.The locking mechanism locked the bit very well once it was secured. So far so good.

With all the cordless drill options out there, sometimes you just need the power of a corded drill. I picked this up because I needed just that, and I needed a hammer drill to be able to drill into brick and stone easily. This drill with its hammer function allows me to punch through brick easily. Being corded it has plenty of power for this, or for mixing grout, paint, and the like, another reason I picked this up. The drill itself is very heavy, and very nose-heavy; it comes with an auxiliary handle that is a must use in my opinion. The drill body is some kind of resin/plastic, very tough and dense and looks like it will be very durable. Having a 1/2” chuck on this is also a plus as I do use a bit that large occasionally. As far as power goes, this drill has plenty, and the hammer function works very well.This drill so comes with five masonry bits and 5 HSS (I believe) drill bits; these are good stop-gaps. It is a good budget drill option, definitely not a pro- or prosumer-level drill, but one that will serve my purposes nicely. It is fairly priced and a good corded drill to have on hand.
