A dependable mid-tier rotary hammer suitable for homeowners and contractors handling periodic concrete and masonry work, offering good safety features and three-function versatility at reasonable cost.

Our Review

This 12.5-amp SDS-Max rotary hammer delivers solid performance for concrete drilling and light demolition work. The three-function mode (drill, hammer, chisel) provides versatility, while the safety clutch prevents sudden kickback—a critical feature when boring through rebar or hardened aggregate. The included 1-1/2" SDS-Max bits and two chisels cover basic applications, though the corded design eliminates battery concerns on extended job sites.

Ergonomics are respectable with adequate vibration dampening for a tool in this class, though sustained overhead work remains tiring due to the 8-10 lb weight. The 12.5-amp motor generates sufficient torque for residential concrete work and masonry tasks without stalling on dense material. The carrying case adds practicality, though the single included drill bit limits immediate utility.

Reliable workhorse for homeowners tackling concrete anchors, masonry holes, and light demolition. Not professional-grade like Milwaukee or DeWalt heavy-duty models, but solid value for occasional-to-moderate use where cordless isn't essential.

What We Like

  • Genuine safety clutch prevents hand injuries from sudden bind-up
  • Three functional modes (drill/hammer/chisel) in one tool eliminates multiple purchases
  • Corded 12.5-amp motor provides consistent, uninterrupted power without battery degradation
  • Includes carrying case for job site transport and storage

Watch Out For

  • Only one drill bit included despite SDS-Max's broad compatibility; buyers need additional bits immediately
  • Vibration control adequate but not exceptional; extended overhead work causes fatigue compared to premium models
