GALAX PRO 4.5Amp 0-3000RPM Corded Hammer Drill, 5pcs Bit, Hammer and Drill 2 Functions in 1 with 12 Variable Speed, 1/2 Inch Keyed Metal Chuck, 360°Rotating Handle

My 5 star review of this tool package. I purchased this drill because I wanted a corded drill without a hand-tightening chuck for the smallest drill bits when I needed them to stay tight in the chuck. When I saw this deal I honestly did not expect too much as the price was incredibly low for the offer. However, I only wanted to add this to my name-brand cordless hand-tightening drill I already owned so I purchased the package. 1st project was repurposing 3 metal shelving units, you know the ones that have straight head screws with square nuts and are gray heavy-duty. Well, I needed the floor space they used up so I cut them in half from 6 shelves to 3 then mounted them on the walls from the ceiling down, and freed up the floor. I used hex head tap con 2-3/4 screws into cinder block walls utilizing the hammer drill setting (#2) and the normal drill setting (#1) for powering the tapcons into the block. The drill had one hiccup, a small piece of plastic was loose inside the drill body by the trigger area and it would trap the forward and reverse button at times making it stick in either gear. Not sure if it was like that or if I dropped it at some point but it came out while I was messing with the drill while taking a break, the drill performed very well ever since that first day, It has adequate power never bogging down, all the functions work as they should. The trigger is solid without any cheap loose feeling, and the same with the reverse/forward button and the lock-on trigger, they work and feel right. The keyed chuck has never lost grip of any bit even the smallest bits .NOTE the key holder did break rather quickly so I used a 3/4 x 6" velcro cable tie and made two holes to force the chuck key arms/or ends through. It is now stronger than the rubber one and works perfectly.FYI If anyone doesn't know what I'm referring to it is when you use a drill with a key-operated chuck to hold and release the drill bits. It is normal for the cord of the drill to have a chuck key holder fastened to the cord itself so the key is always with the drill and we are not setting it down and then looking for it every time we need to change out a drill bit. Well, the one that came with the drill broke inside two weeks and I replaced it with the velcro tie. I have used this drill a lot in 6 months and I have no problem giving 5 stars. Incredible price for this after market very usable drill.

I’ve always avoided buying a hammer drill. I just used a normal drill and suffered through it. Last year I needed to drill a bunch of holes in concrete and it was painful. I made it through, but it was painfully and frustrating. This year I needed to do it all again. This time, I vowed to buy the right tool, and that turned an hour plus long frustrating job into 15 minutes of easy peasy.The price was perfect for this little life saver. If I never use it again, it will have been worth it, but I have future plans that will really make this a bargain. :)

This hammer drill packs a punch for a budget-friendly tool. The 4.5Amp motor has plenty of power for most DIY jobs around the house, and the 0–3000 RPM range gives you solid control. I really like the dual-function (hammer and drill) capability—it handled brick and wood without any issues. The 360° rotating handle is a nice touch for better grip and control, and the variable speed settings are responsive.It comes with 5 bits, which is great for getting started, but they’re not the highest quality—you’ll probably want to upgrade them if you plan on doing more heavy-duty work. That’s the only reason I knocked off a star.Overall, it’s a great drill for the price and perfect for home projects or light contractor use.

Instructions could be more comprehensive...that's the ONLY complaint! For less than $40 you get a great set with huge number of accessories and a nice case. Using a 1/2" masonry bit it chewed through 1" of concrete quickly. Of course things get a bit tougher when a stone is encountered as is expected.

For the price of this drill, I'm super happy that I bought it! it feels heavy duty but I'm a girl and only need this for occasional use. I had some garden pots that needed holes drilled for drainage and this drill made quick works of it. I've been dragging my feet about buying a drill but sometimes even as a novice female you need one!It came with a nice assortment of drill bits.If you just need a drill for small sporadic jobs at a great price, give this one a try!

I didn't use the drill much and it quit working when I was using the hammer feature. Went to Amazon to return it and it says can only be returned for 30 days. Thats a very poor warranty. Don't buy this product its a waste of money.

Works AMAZING!!!! The super easy speed control is Awesome!!! Used it with some 3" buffing pads.

Hand grip comes loose too easy.
