KSEIBI Variable Speed Rotary Hammer Drill 1-1/4 inch, SDS Plus Demolition Hammer for Concrete Drill 13Amp, 4 Functions Reduced Vibration System

I need 4 holes drilled into concrete to install wedge anchors for a steel pier. As someone who says "rightie tighty, leftie loosie" every time he is about to mess something up with a screwdriver, I went directly to Angi's List. Nobody called me back. I called folks on Craigslist. The only person to say he would do it came back with a $1200 quote. I laughed and he acknowledged the price was insane, but said that is what it would cost him to get 3 guys into a truck for half a day in traffic for a 20-minute job. He suggested I try a handyman. That's what Craiglist was supposed to be so I was on my own. I purchased this and an appropriate masonry bit. I did a test run on a stone paver and immediately thought "I wasted my money. It isn't going anywhere." It took me a second to realize I had drilled a perfect hole through stone. The only thing I did was press a button. There was no physical effort on my part. Whoa. So on to my telescope pier. 4 precise holes into concrete, about 15 seconds per hole. The wedge anchors installed beautifully.I'll start with the cons:This thing is heavy.Pros:-This thing feels like more quality than I should get for $90. It is wonderfully heavy.-I didn't know I was drilling through concrete.-I saved $1110.-pretty nice case with plenty of room for its contents.-Quality instruction manual. No need to go to YouTube to figure out how to use this. Note: I can barely tell left from right and I had no problems understanding how to use this tool after 5 minites with the manual. I am the least mechanically-inclined person I've ever met.If you are a general contractor, you are probably better off buying tools with easy, local factory service, a long history of honoring warranties, and easy parts replacements. Down time is money. If you are like me and need to do masonry work once a decade, cannot find someone to come in and do it for you for less than the price of an international airline ticket, and think a spanner wrench is "probably a dog breed or something" (I did up until last week), this is for you. If you are scared to drill holes into concrete yourself, you get this and you got this.Just to note, I bought this with my own money. Though I would gladly write a good review for a bag full of money, Kseibi hasn't contacted me offering me hard cash or even a 25-cent Amazon gift certificate for leaving a review. As disappointing as that is, this tool is pretty spectacular.

I am a 130 lb woman. I had such a nightmare when I removed all the tile in my house. Whoever laid this tile should have been fired. The thin set was so thick that I hired a fellow while I was away. He worked on it for 2 days and quit. I came home to a real mess. I hired another guy to help after I received this tool so I could also work on it. It is a bit heavy but I was able to handle it just fine. The guy worked 4 hours, left his tools and said he didn’t want to work on it anymore. I was left on my own. This tool worked great. I was wetting the thin set first because I didn’t want all that dust flying around but dust still was everywhere.anyway This tool broke it up really well and then I had to scrape it but I don’t know what I would’ve done without this tool.I then hired a man for the rest of the floor I just couldn’t do it anymore it wore me out physically and mentally. After this guy tried all his tools for a half hour and none his tools worked he started using this tool and something that would have taken me over a week to do he did it in two hours.The takeaway is this works great and I recommend it highly.

This did exactly what it needed to do for me...blow a bunch of 1-1/2" holes though wood like it was water (I have only used the drill function). It is stupid powerful, so pay attention! Value is great because it cost much less than the model it replicates which worked for the duration of my project, but does not quite have the feel for the real thing. Very appropriate combo of price and performance though!

I can't believe how quickly I can drill through concrete in the hammer/drill mode. I will never use an ordinary drill again for concrete work. Keep in mind this beast is really torquey. First time I held it like a normal drill and when drilling, the bit suddenly snagged on something and froze. The toque was transferred to the drill body which twisted my wrist and slammed the handle I should have been holding into my calf. Had it not been for this drill's anti-torque feature, it could have been worse. Overall, a quality hammer drill I highly recommend.

This tool is a beast. I have been a general contractor for over 35 years. This tool works great. I have been really impressed with the quality of this brand. Especially the hammer function. Used it to chisel up over 1200 sq ft of ceramic floor tile along with the thin set. The inside of the case is questionable, as it is thin plastic. But overall, I was really impressed.

For the price, this is an incredible value! I used it to hammer out concrete and drill 5/8 holes in a concrete slab, it had no problems doing both jobs. I used an $800 Makita demo hammer and I'd say this is just as good. I can't speak on reliability yet but it seems pretty well made and not cheap.

Simple to use, had to drill some large holes in a wall, used a 2” tool and worked no problem. Good deal for the money!

For home owner use I fount it to be excellent. There is a learning curve as to which tip works best. Keep the tool end of the bit clean of dirt and with a fresh layer of grease upon inserting.I used it to break up concrete of fence post.
