Following the untimely demise of my Makita 14.4v combi, I needed a replacement ASAP.
Best deal I could find was the Hitachi 18v Li-Ion from B&Q at £89.

Drilled 20+ holes it walls, tiles etc.Good spec, 13mm chuck, 22 torque settings, hammer & drill functions, 2 x
15 a/hr batteries & a smart charger. Obviously a quality tool.
Bargain at £89. Can't really fault it.
Compared to the Makita 14.4v though, it just doesn't match up. Doesn't feel as comfortable in the hand, speed control nowhere near as good & I reckon the Mak has more welly despite the extra volts on the Hitachi.
