Just visited Bunnings looking for a middle of the road corded keyed chuck Hammer Drill. I am happy with Makita so please don't try to convince me otherwise haha.

I couldn't decide between the following two drills, so I thought I would ask here for a second opinion before buying.

HP1620KSP typical makita dull green colour, looks like a nice unit, kit complete with drill bits. Made in Romania. Priced around $130.

M804K is bright apple green, and basically the same as the above but seems to be a new unit? I can't find it anywhere on the internet. Made in China. No drill bits and alot cheaper at $80.

Any suggestions?
Cheers

Sorry but I'm going to try!

I'm a chippie, I'm a big fan of Makita. About 70-80% of my power stuff is Makita.
But their drills arn't a patch on their competitors. I've burnt out a few drills over the years and personally I think only 2 stack up when talking hammer drills, Hilti or Bosch. Hilti is probably out of reach or unnecessary for DIYers, so that leaves Bosch, blue of course.

A mate works at a powertool shop that also repairs tools, so I get to find out whats good and bad. A fews years ago Makita produced a $300 rotary hammer drill. Being a rotary hammer drill below $400 and branded Makita they sold shedloads, but soon after shedloads of them came back for warranty repairs. He now tells anyone willing to listen to steer clear of Makita hammer drills.

I'm sure gerhard can give you the run down on Blue Bosch drills.

I have the 1620KSP, it was recomended by a trusted friend who happens to work for Bunnings. He see's what gets sent back for repair and this doesn't

It gets used for light work, inc the odd drilling in brickwork, but mainly for woodwood and ood jobs or as a second drill when needed. no compliants here.

ive gone with the 1620KSP and it works a treat, concrete and all
now im thinking i should replace my cordless as well.....

how do makita fair in the cordless driver drill market?
im probably looking at getting a 12v or 14v.

cheers
