This ‘Boschhammer’ is an incredible machine. It is much lighter than other demolition hammer drills and more powerful than most of similar size ad weight. It is the ‘standard’ unless you consider the much more expensive Hilti-drills. We have blown out a cheaper model quickly, this one only used a few weeks, but we used a previous model for many years. I expect this to last as well for many years and many projects. HomeDepot.com carries it at a great price as a single unit or comb- pack with grinderFor light demolition and drilling in concrete (we did up to 5/8″) – I highly recommend this hammer drill

High quality product, combined with a carbide bit it went through granite rocks easily. To split the rock I used shims and wedges, now I will never have to rent a rock drill and compressor again!

This is an excellent tool, solid construction, powerful, easy to operate. No need for you to apply heavy pressure to push through your job, let the tool do the work and it will. The different settings are an asset giving you the ability to tackle a variety of jobs.

Warning: Rank Amateur construction hobbyist. I needed to anchor a small back-yard building on a pre-existing slab. I own a Makita hand-held hammer drill (which I also think highly of) and first attempted the job with that and an appropriate cement/masonry bit (3/8ths) per my anchors. After draining two batteries and only gaining a half an inch (if that) – I went out on YouTube for more information on what I was attempting. One of the presenters recommended the Bosch Bulldog. With same bit in hand, and some trepidation, I went to my worksite with this hammer drill in tow wondering how quickly I’d be returning it to Home Depot. One word: Butter. The drill created the hole I needed in less than 20 seconds and my hands were not vibrating after the experience. “Right tool for the job” my dad always said. This is a classic case in point. I’m impressed with this hammer drill. And I’m not taking it back like a prom-dress worn once. I’ll just need to find some more concrete that needs drilling. The cost came down to $11 a hole, but I needed the building anchored and renting hammer drills was harder than I imagined in the midst of the Covid pandemic.

Had a Milwaukee that would heat up and it eventually broke after a year. Milwaukee wouldn’t fix it even though it was under warranty, gave me the run around. I gave up on them fixing it, so I bought the Bulldog. Doing the same work as I did with the Milwaukee, it doesn’t heat up and does the job quicker even though my Milwaukee had more power.

I love how compact the handle is. I can comfortably hold it in my hand and the weight distribution is perfect. I expect nothing less from Bosch.

Was way more powerful than my previous off brand rotary hammer. I used it to remove plaster and it just kept kicking no matter how hard I pushed it. Despite the dust, the motor still didn’t have any strange sounds like my previous hammer. It is loud so definitely invest in someway protection and a little heavy, but POWERFUL

This things is a beast. I had to drill a bunch of 3/4″ holes in a concrete patio, and my DeWalt portable just wasn’t up to it, even set to its hammer drill setting. The Bosch Bulldog sailed through the job. Well worth the price.
