Quick SDS drill question - any experience?
My cheapo SDS drill doesn't have long to go (brushes don't last and
it's hardly worth the investment to buy new ones), so I've decided to get a new one. Although they're incredibly useful, it's not that often that I have to get it out so it's not easily to justify (/ask Father Christmas for) a top of the range one. I had my eye on the De Walt from Screwfix (http://www.screwfix.com/prods/30228/...Drills/DeWalt- D25003K-GB-650W-2kg-SDS-Plus-Hammer-Drill-240V) but went into B+Q last night and they had these knocked down to 50 quid ( http://www.diy.com/diy/jsp/bq/nav/na...isSearch=false ) (Blimey that's a long link - it's a 700Watt Black and Decker, in case that doesn't work) I was just wondering, before entering into negotiations, whether anyone has had good or bad experiences with either. As I said, it's not something I'll use every day, so I don't need a 200 quid jobbie, but it would be good to know whether either of these is prone to falling apart in 5 minutes. My only 'must have' feature is a rotation stop for chiselling as breaking things up and cutting chases is so much simpler with an SDS. Cheers Chaps |
