VEVOR1-1/4 Inch SDS-Plus Rotary Hammer Drill, 13 Amp Corded Drills, Heavy Duty Chipping Hammers w/Vibration Control & Safety Clutch, Electric Demolition Hammers Variable Speed, Power Tool For Concret

I bought this tool for installing a handrail on concrete steps. It came with concrete drill bits. Worked well; easily drilling holes in concrete. Please with the purchase, even for the one application needed at the time.

This hammer drill worked well for me. I've only used it a couple of times now, primarily for drilling into concrete for outdoor 4x4 post mounts. I had four posts and each mount had six bolts into the concrete. Never having used a tool like this before I purchased some 'rebar' drill bits to use. I found the regular concrete bit that came with the tool worked much faster and I used it almost exclusively. I believe these were 8mm (5/16) holes. I used it with a heavy duty 15 amp extension cord and had no issues with power. As others have noted similarly, I priced a rental at Home Depot and it would have cost me the same or more (given I've never used one of these before). After this project I used it for some small demolition and punching out some drain channels in a concrete floor. The tool did go through the original grease in the housing. Each time I used it I refilled the housing, first with the grease supplied and then with some Makita hammer grease. It's not hard to do. The instructions recommend some kind of Shell grease but I couldn't find it. I also used some Makita hammer bit grease on the bits. I won't say 'it cut like butter', but it was pretty effective and it got through 24 8mm wide 4 inch deep holes in old concrete, mostly with the supplied bit. The depth gauge was practically useless, it kept slipping.

Its not for professional use by any means but its great for a using it on jobs I wouldn't want to use my hilti on such as breaking ground while digging or letting a helper use it. It's fine for light work but it’s not worth it if you plan on using it as a work horse. Go hilti if you’re a pro. If i bought this with high expectations id be highly disappointed. I did use the bits that came with it so I'm betting that didn't help.

I sued this to demo my bathroom. Worked well to get tile of the walls and floor. I also used.it to break up a concrete slab. Recommend buying.

Surprisingly decent quality tool ~ drills a 4 inch hole in a concrete slab in just a few seconds.

I've bought about 4 of these now for our service department. They're cheap enough to have each technician have their own and it does a fine job through concrete and brick up to 3/8" for everything from Doweling Concrete to Pilot for a TapCon screw. We don't really use the bits that come with it but they're fine for chiseling and the case is very good in my opinion for the price.

This review is for the 1500w corded version. For the cost of a single 4hr rental of a similar tool I have gotten 12hrs+ of use out of this and now I have it for later use.I can't compare it to other tools but it chipped out old tile and underlayment without hesitation. It did get a little hot after continuous use. I just set it in front of a fan for a few minutes and continued on. Make sure to keep an eye on your lube port and use the included lubricant. Also included is an extra set of brushes which is a nice inclusion.The hand painted logo where the silk screen failed made me lol. For the cost I really don't care.

Drills through concrete slabs like butter. So far works as expected. I imagine it will hold up because I don't use it that much. Similar specs to other brands at much better value. Good deal.
