Saturday, September 3, 2011 Bosch 1194AVSR 1/2-Inch VSR Hammer drill without Case Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This drill was my first hammer drill....P>I had it for about 2 years, maybe used it for 2 dozen times in that span.I used it to drill holes in bricks and concrete as well as to mix concrete.From start, the levers for switching speed and mode (drill vs. Hammer) was very hard to negotiate.
Started noticing power decrease when I started mixing 2 lbs. of concrete mix in a 5 gallon bucket.Saw sparks internally to drill when I tried drilling 8 holes into concrete foundation.Finally went bezek on me the other day while drilling 1/2" bit into brick. Drill got stuck in on mode, had to pull cord to shut off power.
Do yourself a favor, save yourself some money.Stay away from this drill.It's just plain bad.
