Bosch Cordless Drill 2x1.5Ah Battery. 55 Euro.

Looks good.

Is the charger included?

It might be interesting to compare with another similarly priced drill?

I bought one of these Bosch ones just to have. It’s decent enough for the money and it is on the smaller side which will suit for smaller jobs. It has a handy case too so easy to keep the spare battery and charger together.

Lidl often have their Parkside 20V in hammer or non-hammer version. These are around €55-€60 with one battery (extra battery around €15), so a bit more than the Bosch like for like .

Drilling rpm is virtually the same, but the Lidl one has 25-30% more torque.

The Lidl battery is 2.0ah where the 2 Bosch ones are 1.5ah each. Not a big deal, I’d rather have the 2 batteries than 1.

The Bosch is noticeably lighter and is handier for screwdriving because of this.

The Bosch feels a lot cheaper in terms of the plastics/rubber, and the Chuck seems less rugged.

Overall, this is certainly worth €55, I’d feel cheated if I’d paid €110 for it but at €55 it’s a bargain.

Thanks for that.

Definitely a bargain then.

I would say might you have the non hammer version without the side handle if it was 25, we have a few of those too and they’re really good, We give them awful abuse so have had issues with a chuck breaking and burnt a few motors out drilling big holes in steel.

warranty is brilliant on them, so we had them all replaced no quibbles. I have previously killed De Walts and all sorts through neglect so it’s not a reflection on how good/bad they are.

Yeah they do them without charger and battery too.

i think the basic 20v full set was €50

this thread has kinda gone off on a tangent 😂

Out of stock in my location as usual.

Anyone see any other deals floating around?
