So we've seen the advert for half price sofas and
the other offers over the years. But if I was selling sofas
I would think the offer that couldn't lose is
"Buy a sofa and we throw in a Makita 24v SDS"
She gets what she wants and you get to own killer kit.



But it's Ryobi that looks more like Airfix, not Makita.

I assume that's what you meant by a kit?


So how pray tell does the Ryobi SDS or anything else look like Airfix?


Airfix make plastic kits sold in toy shops.

The
Ryobi SDS I bought looks like - an SDS drill

Granted

Hitachi looks like something Flash Gordon would use, and B&D are
going that way, but Ryobi looks perfectly normal to me.

Oh BTW - the Ryobi SDS performs very well indeed thank you. Very nice to
use, drills holes perfectly and is gaining status because peope have seen
the name on the DFS advert.

:-)


What's DFS?
