Milwaukee. Proper stuff.

I don't know anyone who's ever liked Milwaukee, so I'm surprised.

Just for information, AEG, Ryobi and Milwaukee are all made by the same company.

In varying degrees of quality :smile:

Just buy what you can afford at the time and when you can afford a bit more buy better.

Indeed, they all fall under atlas copco, but aeg and ryobi are nowhere near the quality of Milwaukee. Aeg are in the same bracket as Dewalt/Makita IMO (what I would consider mid-range), and are good for the money.

When looking at Gasman's thread about the Kango last night i got a link to Spit stuff. Spit is basically an industrial Bosch. It is very good gear but a slightly different drill bit fitting called an S2S instead of an SDS. I even bid a tenner on an old 321 and it sold for £10.50
This one
SPIT 321 Hammer drill, 110V FULL WORKING COMPLET WITH CARRYING CASE | eBay
For anyone interested, an S2S drill bit had 2 shallows instead of the SDS shallow and groove. To make the std SDS bits fit you need to run a grinder down one side of the bit to make the groove slightly wider.
For the inconvenience of 2 minutes you can pick up a cheap very good quality gun
