When I last bought an SDS drill it was easy - I bought the cheapest I could find from Wickes at £99. Other makes cost twice that.
After seven years of abuse it is now working intermittently, so I have decided to replace it.
Things are not so simple now.
There are ultra-cheap makes, less than £40. The better manufacturers are now producing cheaper models - e.g. Bosch and Makita for under £100. There are still the horrendously expensive professional models.
It is only for DIY use - drilling, channelling, electrical back boxes, taking down the odd wall, etc., but I want something that will last me another seven years.
What are the current recommendations on the mid-range drills - e.g. around the £100 mark? Any good deals around?
