Robust construction for drilling and chiselling jobs. Features
drill,
hammer and rotary stop, safety clutch, adjustable front handle and soft
grip. SDS chisel, SDS point chisel, 3 x SDS drill bits, keyed chuck and
adaptor supplied. 1250W SDS Plus Carry Case £39.99

Looks OK for DIY, the rest look a bit expensive.


Have you looked at the weight of it though? 6kg!

If you want a general purpose SDS drill on a budget I would expect
something like:

would be far more usable.


That looks like an extra 10 quid well spent. For any of the jobs you
used to do with the old hammer drill, you would really hate that 6kg
thing.
