    Available tomorrow Sunday for €59.99. 1500W SDS+ rotary hammer drill.
    I don't know much about drills!! Need to be able to drill through my outside wall of the house.

    Does anyone know if this is any good and whether this work off a normal socket?

    I got one about 2 yeas ago, it done a fair bit of work before it packed it in, about 6 mths later, chased out edge of concrete floors, mass concete wall etc ,good seconday drill, i remember the electrician being well impressed with it for the price, hammer action gone now but it still works,replaced the brushes aswell, i think spare set comes with it, there was a 3 year warranty, but mine really got dogged so never brought it back,recommended

    did few jobs with that one, cant complain
    (well, €77 may be a bit to high, i paid around €55 few monts ago - some price cut, anyway there is plenty of 5 stars reviews on uk site)

    those drill bits are in very strange sizes, you will have to get some 8, 10, 12 mm anyway (afair there is 7, 14, 18 mm in box)
