And don't take a cheap one. Also buy good drill bits. I have reinforced concrete wall in my home and anything less than 7€ drill bits was basically one-used only.
- namdnay 5y agoI second this. Honestly if you own a house there's no reason not to invest in a good cordless rotary hammer
- bayindirh 5y agoI just use Bosch's drill bits for concrete. They're nice and durable. For wood, B+D Piranha lives up to its name. On the screw bits side, heavy use delegated to Bosch again, while fine stuff are handled by Wera.
- Aaargh20318 5y agoCheap ones work fine if you only use it occasionally. Mine was like €35 and I've had it for over 10 years now, still works fine. Goes through concrete like a hot knife through butter. When I initially needed one I checked how much they were to rent, it was actually cheaper to buy one than to rent one for a day. Worst-case scenario it fails an I get another cheap one, I already got my money's worth.
