 Best Hammer Drill I've Had and I've Had Them All. March 10, 2008
Corky
20 out of 25 found this review helpful
I've worked construction for more than 10 years and I have had the 3 major brands: Milwaukee, DeWalt, Panasonic and Makita . And I can say that the Makita has come out on top for innovation, ruggedness and usability.
Milwaukee has reliable stuff but the Cordless drills are way too big, heavy and clumsy. I had them early on and found the tools very clumsy and too heavy which If you have to use a tool all day long, which I do you start getting worn out. Even their impact is heavy. Like I said the stuff never breaks but makes your arm gets sore after using it for a while. The V18 is the best thing they have but they haven't updated all of their tools to the modern standards of today. When I was looking the only thing that was out was the V28 which was extremely heavy and expensive.
DeWalt has gone downhill I've seen more people change from DeWalt than from any other brand. My Dewalt drill's gears kept stripping out. so I go rid of my kit and that's hard to do since I had so many Dewalt tools. another thing is they don't have Lithium technology. They did but pulled it because of problems which I can see being very possible.
I did also try out Panasonic but it seemed more of a woodworkers drill than a construction drill so that stayed at my house. It was a good drill but not for the every day abuse that you give your drill on a construction site.
I bought the Makita LXT kit when it first came out and realized quickly that this brand is what I was looking for. It was a combination of lightweight, innovative and tough. I haven't had trouble with any of my Makita products except for my Charger which was screwing up my Batteries (which I took to the Makita service center and they replaced the charger and batteries with no problem. I Bought this BHP452 Drill 6 months ago from an online auction since you can't normally buy it by itself just with a kit. I use it every day and have had no problem with it yet and I treat it very rough. I use it for drilling out big holes with my step drill (which normally takes a toll on drills) I use the hammer drill all of the time and use it to drive all size of fasteners. Another great thing about this drill is you can get into small areas and there is a light for dark areas which in construction you don't have good lighting. This thing is a work horse. The Drill shows no sign of wearing down. This is the best drill I've had and like I said I've had them all.
Good companion June 29, 2010

I bought this to go along with my other Makita L-I drill, which my wife has taken a liking to. I like the compact design and the quick charging of the system. I am beginning to think more L-I tools are in my future.
Excellent compact driver/drill July 10, 2010
jg (OLNEY, MD United States)
This is not my first Makita LiIon tool so i assume it will hold up as well as the others. But performance wise - it does its job very well.
I have used it for less than a week. It is a nice companion (smaller and lighter) to my BDF-451 driver. It drove 40 3" ceramic screws in 2x lumber one morning and never bogged once. Hole saws, spade bits, drywall screws in metal or wood....were not a problem.
But to be clear, I am not writing a review for a full size unit. This size and weight put it into the "compact" class, so don't expect it to do everything a larger 18v drill will do. But i would put it up against my larger Makita for 80% of my daily needs.
And you do NOT need the medium range speeds like some posters are convinced.
Good Tool July 12, 2010

18-volt 1/2 inch hammertime August 9, 2010
Peter Murcott (Upstate, NY)
Plenty of power and lightweight also. Uses the battery from my other Makita which is excellent. Bare (naked) tool is a killer deal since I've already got 2 bats and a charger. As usual super fast free shipping from Amazon!
