It's durable and has survived a couple of drops when I knocked it off of a ladder.A quick tip about pricing. It's a good "heavy-weight" tool and has alot of power to handle tough jobs such as drilling into thick concrete yet is light enough and easy to use for putting in a quick hole or driving just about any size screw, tapcon, etc.The batteries charge within about 30 minutes so with 2 batteries I don't need to worry about not being without a charged battery in the middle of a job. I picked up this drill from them in a kit that included 2 batteries, quick charger, work lantern, reciprocating saw and a nylon bag for about [.]. The tools are in exceptional, like-new condition, no noticeable scrathes, dents, etc and come with a 1 year Factory Warranty. I got this drill last Spring as a replacement for my old hammer drill, I do most of the maintenance and repair work in a 3 story commercial building. Check our [.]. I was a bit leary anout buying a reconditioned power tool but I haven't had the slighest problem with this hammer drill, and the saw is a nice bonus for when I don't have an outlet around for my corder saw. They are an authorized Hitachi dealer and sell reconditioned tools at deeply discounted prices.
Item recieved as described. Great customer service, quick in responding and resolving any issues that may arise. Had an issue with UPC code, but the quickly responded and resolved the issue.
It is also very well balanced and the batteries are light. First, this tool packs a wallop, very torquey and the hammer function works very well. You get what you pay for. I have owned mine for a little less than a year and have had no complaints or problems. I purchased this to replace a DeWalt that finally surrendered after a lot of abuse. I've never felt like the battery end was fighting me for control of the tool. In this case, I think every dime spent on this tool was money well spent. The teenage mutant ninja turtle look put me off a bit, but now the tool is so grungy its not so bad.
In use at my work for years and the batteries still hold a charge well. Has tons of power and easy to use.
It also has one of the highest (or highest) torque ratings of any drill in it's class. BUY IT. In two words. This drill will make it an entire day on a single battery with fairly heavy use. I will now get their Sawsall as well. It blows the Dewalt away.period.
