Good for small tapcons only Jun 19, 2010 This thing is fine for small tapcon screws, but don't try to make big holes in anything hard with it.
I had an experience similar to one of the other reviews. I was drilling 5/8ths inch holes in concrete with it. I drilled 2 holes and then the bit started to slip. Tightened up the chuck and it worked a while and then slipped again. I was able to barely finish the job by really jamming the chuck tight every 10 seconds of drilling or so.
Now the chuck won't even close, I think it's completely shot. Anyway this drill is great if all you need to do is sink tapcons with a little bit. If you ever want to make big holes, get something else. This thing is liable to give up after only one hole.
Makes a difference Apr 12, 2009 If you have to drill in brick, and you are wondering if you need a hammer drill, the answer is yes. You might find this drill on discount at Lowe's. But Amazon is always great.
Installed a range hood (6" hole) through red brick with Bosch hammer bit , chisel and this. The control and speed were excellent for me.
hammer drill Apr 02, 2009 I'm Mr.B. I bought this drill to replace a much heavier one I borrowed from my buddy and burned it out. I was able to find the Hitachi, which was more powerful, smaller and lighter at half the price of other brands I shopped. It has held up for my and my friend's projects so far.

Use it correctly and it works fine Feb 27, 2009 If you read the other reviews about this drill you'll see complaints about burning out, etc. This is not a heavy duty contractor type tool. It is great for heavy duty homeowner use where the duty cycle is fairly short. It is specifically NOT for mixing drywall mud or thinset. This is hard on any drill not designed for this task. It is NOT for drilling holes in concrete where you have to do this continually over a sustained period of time for over a half hour. One guy said he burned out a 5/16" drill using this in concrete. Well, this has a variable speed to drill at an appropriate speed in concrete and if you use a good quality bit it works just fine. And be aware that the "5/8" inch means the drilling capacity in concrete NOT the chuck size which is 1/2". Treat this tool well and use it for it's intended use and it will perform well.
Not good enough Feb 16, 2009 Worked find for a while, but burned out turning just 2-3 gallons of thinset. Had to finish with my B&D 18v cordless. Stepping up the DW511 with is 6.7 amp versus 5.0. 1 year warranty is lame.
