Default Parkside Cordless

As someone who owns a Power Devil hammer drill, Tooltec sander,
Marksman plane, silverline biscuit cutter, Challenge jigsaw and
Powercraft sander.
Quality 'feel' from these tools goes like this for me.

All of the above have a build quality feeling in the range 2 - 5 out
of ten, compared to
the recently acquired bosch cordless GSR14.4VE2.
The parkside cordless from Lidl definitely comes top of the monkeys
with a build
quality feel more than 5 maybe 6.


In comparison with the Bosch?


If I hadn't cooked the batteries on the ******* I wouldn't have
thought about replacing it.


But you did, and now you're having to tit around with replacing them,
only to discover that doing so will cost more than the product. By
the time you've done all of that and accounted for the wasted time you
could have bought a decent product in the first place.



Therefore, I feel; Up yours, Hall!



At least you figured out the buying the Bosch was the better idea.
