Handles great and has plenty of power. That's where this drill comes in handy. Awesome value. This is a great corded drill to have around if you primarily use battery powered cordless drills. We have all been in the situaltion more than once where you grab your cordless drill and have no juice in your battery.
This drill does fit the bill.I bought the drill, figuring that the reviews mentioning an inconsistent startup issues mentioned by the other reviews were old, and that Bosch would have fixed the issue. This absolutely fine if you're drilling holes with conventional bits around the house -- but if your main use for this tool were to drive screws or turn a doorknob cutter, this drill would drive you crazy.Also, the motor's reduction-gear make an unexpected mechanical noise.
But it's just surprisingly for those of us who are accustomed to modern drills.The motor is reasonably powerful and I have yet to have it bog down on anything.It's a solid tool with decent ergonomics, and I expect it will give me years good service. I took the drill apart and there was no inappropriate wear anywhere, so it's all good.
I purchased this drill because I was looking for an inexpensive corded drill, and because my Bosch table saw is an excellent tool. It's like the drill I learned to use 20 years ago as a kid.
But, in the mean time, I'll be keeping an eye out for that elusive perfectly-designed reasonably-priced basic corded electric drill. I'm a homeowner/woodworker, and I do most of my work my garage workshop, so battery-powered drills don't get me much.
But, alas, it's hard to tell exactly when and how quickly the drill will turn.
the product was a good for the moneynext time amazon might ask there sellers to ship in an amazon.con boxif this item has to go to a state prison it needs to come in a box that says amazon.con on it
I have never been disappointed with Amazon. I was very pleased with the quality,price,delivery and sales transaction at Amazon.
I highly recommend it. The only complaint I have is that sometimes it is too powerful to control when you need to go slow. I have used this model that my friend has owned for years and have found it to be reliable, powerful to the point that it puts other drills to shame, and have yet to find a project it couldn't tackle. I finally decided to buy one for myself, and am glad I did.
