Bosch Professional 18V System GSB 18V-55 cordless combi drill (torque 55 Nm, excluding batteries and charger, in carton)

With Bosch you're paying more than cheaper brands, but what you're doing is buying into a system that's been around for years.Cheaper brands change their systems frequently.Some supermarket brands items aren't even compatible with eachothers batteries.No worry of that here.Overall the impact driver is light and extremely powerful.Made no bones of derived 15cm screws into 2 sleepers.Didn't need piloting either, tho I generally countersunk then for a cleaner finish.Drill isn't the most powerful, but will get through 95% of what I need, then I have a corded hammer drill for those few occasions. Just heavy bricks it had an issue with in a chimney... Tho s but if persistance, pressure and starting small before expanding worked fine.These are portable, light, fast charging, part of a huge system and they will be wearable... The bushless nature means they last longer!I figure spending £30 more per tool should mean I get more years out if his DIY usage.The box is great too, but the tools will take around if in a vehicle. You can cut foam down to protect if you need to.Spend well and don't spend again and all.Well recommended.

Made in Malaysia, nice drill to use. Metal chuck and brushless motor gives good torque along with longer battery life. Drill is nicely balanced with either 3 or 5 amp hour batteries.Very good drill in my opinion.

Got a few DIY projects in the works at home and was forever having to recharge my old drill, decided to take the plunge and upgrade, this pair is fantastic, technology has come along way and im amazed what the cordless drill can do vs my old one, never used an impact driver before but im very impressed, it took a little getting used to as it really can pack a punch, stripped a few bits and screws before i managed to work out how little to pull the trigger on it.comes with a very sturdy carry case that has enough space to chuck in some drill and driver bits too, battery life is excellent and they charge very quickly, i suppose that's the advantage of buying professional tools vs DIY

Both the drill and driver are powerful enough for my DIY needs and I have not experienced any reliability issues. The batteries are also great but I've purchased a fast charger and may invest in high capacity ones if needed.My only issue is that I couldn't register the product with bosch for the extended warranty. The website just didn't accept the product details, suggesting that someone may have already used them .

A superb piece of kit that replaced a faulty device from another manufacturer. This is a well built drill that feels perfectly weighted and not oversized when holding it. The drill is responsive and handles every home DIY task it has been presented with so far including drilling into concrete like a knife through butter. I’m have been really impressed with it, charging time is fast too, and the battery lasts for ages. Shame the case is so large, I suspect it’s a universal size to fit all tools in the range, but it’s a very minor point.

This is a very impressive set and you get a lot for your money.I've always used Makita electric tools and I put this set side by side a Makita set of twice the price and there isn't much difference. The build quality of the Makita tools is better but not by much, however, the bosch box is better. The performance is outstanding and comparable to the Makita tools. It is also worth mentioning that the work light placement on the bosch tools isn't great and ends up blinding the user half the time when working in more constrained areas.Assuming these last a respectable amount of time then you can't go wrong, great set.

Best price I could find & really pleased with the quality of the drill

I bought this replacement drill as my previous Bosch Professional 18V System GSB 18V-55 cordless combi packed it in after a number of years, I still had the batteries and the charger from my first drill. Its an excellent drill for all DIY projects.
