18V Hammer Drill with Battery, Charger, and Kitbox, BCD700S1K-GB

It is not too heavy to hold up when drilling smaller holes at awkward positions, quite light really.OK, it’s not the most powerful drill in the world, but if want to drill small holes you do not need a massive drill.So, for me, it was perfect for when I ddi not need my corded drill, and also far more convenient. No need for extension cables etc.It made very very light work of hammer drilling 4 5mm holes into an outside wall to mount 2 solar powered lights with PIR sensors so my balcony is lit up in the dark when I go onto it in the dark/winter. (Good quality masonry drill bits also helped a lot!) this is what bought it for.Then turn it from hammer drill down to power setting one, and it screwed the screws into the plugs without effort, without overdoing it.I could have paid someone to do the work, and not bought this, but that would have probably cost twice as much, and not left me with a nice little cordless drill.I will take it to work. It will probably spent the rest of its life undoing screws that hold bits of trim and the like onto cars.As a side note is is not brushless.Bought to do one job. And it did it effortlessly. The rest is a bonus.DOWNSIDE.I fully charged the battery on the day it arrived.I drilled 4 holes. To mount the lights mentioned, and then put it to one side for 4 days.I liked it so much I bought a second battery, so that I can just swop them at work, and carry on.Day 5 I went to use it and the battery was flat. After under 10 minutes of use on a fully charged battery.Put the second battery in, and it worked.So I plugged the flat battery into the charger, and ‘red flashing light’ on charger. IE battery defective. The battery that came with it, that I have had for under 10 days. Unplugged the charger and removed the battery, and tried again. Same result. The battery lasted under 10 days, and under 10 minutes of use.Put the spare battery into the charger, green light. Charger is working, drill is working.I know I only really bought it to do one job, and that it did that job. I did not expect the battery to only do that one job, and stop working almost instantly after it was done.I going to assume I received a defective battery in the case with the drill.So I put in a return request, and bought it again. Have paid for the second battery, and i did like the drill, lets hope i was just unlucky.Update: the second one arrived over a week ago, and has caused no problems. I got a full refund from Amazon for the first defective one.

Writing after 4 years of usage. It might not be the best one on the market, but it definitely does the job. I’ve done countless drilling and screwing tasks with it, and even used it to mix concrete. It has never failed me.The battery capacity/power is a bit small, I know, but as long as it has charge, it performs exactly as expected. Despite the heavy and sometimes not-so-gentle use over the years, it is still working perfectly fine. I’m still using it regularly for screwing jobs, and it hasn’t shown any signs of giving up.One thing worth mentioning is the chuck, the part where the drill bit is inserted and tightened by turning. Over time, it has become a bit loose, and I started experiencing this issue a while ago. Round-shank drill bits began to slip and get stripped, so I switched to hexagonal drill bits instead. Since then, I’ve continued using it without any problems, and the hex bits hold firmly with no slipping. This could be due to long-term wear or possibly my own heavy usage, so I can’t say for certain.That said, this doesn’t change the fact that it’s been a solid and reliable drill overall, and still a very good tool that continues to get the job done after years of use. Worth of money.

Have used for various DIY jobs around the house over a weekend or two, fitting shelves etc.. wood, masonry/brick. Handled the wood jobs no issue at all, it did struggle a little with heavier brick and masonry, although it still managed most of the masonry work i tried it on but might struggle a bit more when compared to heavier duty drills, but overall seems a good general drill ideal for me for general DIY.Also fairly comfortable to use, battery seems ok so far.

Great price and easy to use just what a DIYer needs

I’m really happy with my purchase of this drill. Though I didn’t read the description properly and it does not come with any drill bits. I had to buy separately.The drill itself is great. It feels good quality and it’s nice to hold. It feels comfortable in my hand.I found the instructions really easy to follow. I have never ever used a drill before but I really wanted to get one for general household jobs. I have used it to hang shelving, put up a house number on brick wall and hang some basket brackets in the garden. All jobs done with ease and the drill did a good job.The drill has multiple speed settings and the hammer setting so good for brick, though you need to apply quite a bit of pressure.The battery life seems good. I haven’t used the drill much but it’s only had one charge. The battery is super easy to disconnect from the unit. The drill bits are also easy to add and remove from the unit.I did price compare with similar drills and I chose this one as it is made by a well known reputable brand in my opinion and it seems good value for money.Happy with purchase.

This is almost 6 years of using this drill and it never makes me need another one, the only thing which needs replacement is the battery as original one lose charge quickly, highly recommended

Very well made Better than the cheaper ones

It’s a brand that is reasonably priced for a reliable tool.

Does the job

This product was made to charge in the UK. I had to buy an adapter to be able to use it. The company did reimburse me for it but the charger is also not compatible with Canadian batteries. Also drill stopped working properly and neither the supplier nor Amazon has responded to my issue. Very disappointed with this product

The product is very good and powerful to be used for wooden items. Not good for concrete or steel drilling. Lack focus light and only 1 screw bit comes with the product with - and + ends. Over all love it for small project.

Very good
