Bought 4 of these to sell at cost to friends in trade etc, only two arrived today, phoned Axminster and they held two back thing I'd ordered two extra by mistake.
Just been out to have a bit of a comparison with my Hitachi, they both seem evenly matched in terms of chiselling, didn't have anything of substance to compare drilling performance, the couple of 22mm holes i did they seemed similar in terms of power, the makita is slightly more comfortable to use, though the Hitachi feels better made, probably down to the exposed metal gearbox.
For all those that grabbed one of these and hasn't picked any bits up yet. Went to tool station today and got heller bits for it and have to say I'm pleased with them, cost me just over £35 for a point 25mm flat and 50mm spade bits not bad considering they are half decent bits
