Tools and Hardware Reviews of Hitachi FDV16VB2 5 Amp 5/8-Inch Hammer Drill
Customer Review: A great variable speed hammer drill
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had the drill for a couple of years. I think it is really great and have never had any of the negative experiences listed in these other reviews. I find the slow setting quite slow. I find the high setting quite fast. My nephew and I installed about 30 rock climbing holds using tapcon screws and this drill. It worked absolutely great, and we were trying to do it with two other, much less expensive drills before that. Since then, I have drilled into masonry several times without issue. I have had it break a few screws when I have tried to put them into particularly hard stone, but the drill has always been fine. I haven't had it break a tapcon - those screws are worth the extra you pay, they are great! As of right now, I have owned about five different drills in my life and this is the best one for building, cutting holes, and driving screws or drilling holes into masonry. I haven't used a lot of high-end drills, so I cannot compare this to a Bosch or the like, but I am not disappointed at all with the product. Maybe some of these people got defective ones. If that were the case, I would suggest they do an exchange, because the one that I have works very well. One point, this drill uses a chuck key to tighten the bits, it is corded. I don't use it as my primary drill, I have a cordless drill that I use for everyday tasks, including as an electric screw-driver. I break out this drill when I am building something, cutting something thick or tough, or doing anything with masonry.
