## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this combo drill drill considered to be the most gutsy one in the 18v range ?**
A: I’ve owned this drill for over 3 years. Over all its well performing being capable of much more than you could expect. However it does have some shortcomings. The first being its too powerful in low gear. It’s supplied with a very long side handle which you do need to use if drilling large holes in timber >25mm in case it jams. It will cause injury since it does not stop and I’ve found using the torque limiting setting are too low preventing it from drilling at all. If used in high gear it is to fast and causes overheating of bits but does stall if jammed. This said the side handle does restrict access between joists etc. 
the drill has been returned for repair. The motor has failed turning very slowly and making a loud noise and also the chuck becomes notch’s after time. I find the service from Makita second to none  and will continue to use their products.

**Q: " Usually dispatched within 1 to 2 months."! Is this correct? A mistake?**
A: I got one of these, but the gears are forever seizing up, I've had to have it fixed twice, the turn around time is terrible, not even sure if they give a warranty on repairs. Choose another system.

**Q: In all seriousness how does this drill perform drilling 8mm holes into red brick?**
A: I cored through 300mm solid concrete with it to route a new sink waste. 52mm hole. Property was no-fines construction, so not the toughest concrete - but still. I also drilled a 10mm hole through my own red brick recently when the Open Reach guy's bit broke - went through no problem, very quickly.
And cored a 78mm hole again in my own property - IKEA fitters wanted £100 to do it, holesaw cost me £40, and I still have the holesaw!

**Q: Is this drill work with makita bl1820 makita bl1820 18 v 2 a lxt li-ion battery ?**
A: Yeah its not just shorter battery life - the low amp-hour sizes simply cant drive a drill like this to its full torque, due to internal resistance - simply cant push enough current !

*by M***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 May 2021*

My Old Makita I had had for years. GearBox repair caused brush failure so looked for a new replacement. Bought this BRUSHLESS BEAUTY. Makes me wonder why I didnt do it before. You get used to what you have got, But the world moves on and kit gets better. This was a REVALATION. I thought my old drill was good but this is a MAJOR step up in performance. I use it with my old batteries which works well no performance degradation, improved efficiency means that I dont have to change batteries more often even though they are old. I will now look at the rest of my OLD Makita tools and upgrade them to Brushless. Torque on this drill is awesome. Only gave it 3 stars for weight. its compact but not a light beast, BUT THEN IT DELIVERS

    Great buy
  

*by I***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 September 2015*

i decided to buy this drill after studying the reviews and demonstrations,I have always had dewalt products in the past but has I like gadgets and as a carpenter I was on the look out for something new.The drill is worth every penny in my view it's very powerful got everything you need well built ,in fact it can be to powerful when screwing in screws like going into deep into the timber and striping the heads of the screws and drill bits so it's worth investing in some good quality drill bits.the secret here to driving screws in is to gentle press the trigger on and of not continues.The drill itself is light without the battery but when I put the battery on which I have the 4amp it does become heavy after using it on and of for the day so remember this if purchasing.Overall though this is the best drill on the market in its class,you will not be disappointed and with a three year warranty you go wrong.

    Sturdy, well made drill
  

*by P***K on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 June 2021*

Bought  this  as replacement for  a Worx drill . Seems  much heavier , better build quality but  is  a good  deal more  expensive.Smooth action but  does require you  to  use  the long  side  arm attachment especially when using the  hammer drill as it will tend to move around without it !  Weighs 2.7kg  ( just over 6lbs )  with a  3ah 18 v  battery attached but is  well  balanced in  use. Would  recommend.
