5 out of 5 stars Very powerful and very light   February 23, 2010
Guenter Memmert (Sherman Oaks, CA United States)

The cordless rotary hammer is very powerful and effective. Its great advantage is that it is so light weight. Other cordless hammers are much heavier and do not eat faster into concrete.
