I used this drill with a big bit to grind down some oak tree stumps. Great tool with a lot of torque. Make sure you hold on tight when using this drill for serious applications.
This Hitachi has great control and all the torque you need. Looking for something to replace my 25 year old Makita.
I an very happy with the tool. It looks brand new. The drill arrived within one week and came with a case and seems to have all the power that I need. I also like the brake system when you stop.
Best of all, you cannot beat the price for this drill. It also a relatively compact size for the power output. I have a 12" Hitachi cut off miter saw (13 years old) and it has been great. I bought this drill refurbished to mix thin set and grout for the ceramic tile floor I installed in my kitchen. I highly recommend it. This drill exceeded my expectations. A few minor scratches on it, but it performs just like new. This a heavy duty unit with tons of torque to mix thin set and grout with ease.
I don't just like it. One tough drill. To my suprise, after using that thing like I stole it, it doesn't even seem close to dying.
Now that I have used it for stirring 10 5 gallon buckets of stucco, I'd pay $130 for it. I thought for sure I was killing it with such a hard job. I bought this recently from Lowes for $89.
By the end of my tenth bucket it only smoked a little if I kept mixing past 6 minutes or so. I admire it. This thing got so hot mixing such thick cement the first time or two that white hot smoke rolled out of it and the smell of burning wiring made my wallet start to ache.
I didn't care I had to get that stucco up.
