Bosch 1012VSR 6.5 Amp 3/8-Inch Drill Reviews
| 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful  Excellent QUALITY: Made in SWITZERLAND!, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Bosch 1012VSR 6.5 Amp 3/8-Inch Drill (Tools & Home Improvement) This has everything you need in a corded drill.Unlike other imports, this BOSCH is a solid and extremely well engineered tool. The controls are as simple as possible (form follows function), this drill is well balanced and a pleasure to use. Lengthly drilling into difficult materials has not resulted in an overheated tool! This BOSCH can be serviced (carbon motor brushes) by the owner and is designed and built to last a lifetime. (It replaces a Chinese-made US-brand drill that cost less, looked like a bargain but did not last -- and could NOT be serviced.) The BOSCH is so well made that I would actually feel good paying even more for such a life-time investment. All this begs the obvious question: If the Swiss (with the highest standard of living in the world) can build and sell a drill like this one, why can't American companies like Dewalt orMilwaukee do the same? Hello? This Bosch product made in Switzerland, By M. Childs (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Bosch 1012VSR 6.5 Amp 3/8-Inch Drill (Tools & Home Improvement) This drill says made in Switzerland right on the handle. It feels and sounds like power tools made before the great migration to Chinese manufacturing. The trigger is variable speed, offering smooth control from low to high speed . The gearing is high enough torque that there is plenty of power at low speed for driving screws and the motor stops spinning quickly when the trigger is released. The hand tighten chuck is accurately machined so it has no problem hanging onto bits. The motor shaft spins true on center. The forward/reverse switch is above the trigger, easily accessed but not subject to accidental operation. The cord is eight feet long and tough. I have not used the included auxiliary handle.Yeah, you have to plug it in. But I think this drill is lighter and better balanced than the popular battery drills of similar power. And I've wasted enough money on tools that have proprietary rechargeable batteries that are so expensive to replace you just throw the tool... Read more Extremely high quality drill! The LAST one you'll need for home improvement., By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Bosch 1012VSR 6.5 Amp 3/8-Inch Drill (Tools & Home Improvement) Somewhere in Switzerland there was a convoy of parts destined to built military tanks, aircraft, and mining equipment. For some reason this convoy got diverted to the Bosch factory and they decided to make 1012VSR drills out of them. I feel as if this drill was literally forged from the finest steel and uses nothing but the highest quality plastics in the grip and housing. The torque is not only adequate but surprisingly powerful for the heaviest of home improvement projects. This drill makes short work out of a garage renovation I am undertaking. They could have charged me $249 for this drill and I'd still feel as if I was getting a bargain.I've used some very nice Makita, Dewalt, and Milwaukee drills before. All of them were very nice but they also had a clunky, rough feel to them. The Bosch 1012VSR feels just as strong as the nicest drills from other manufacturers but the controls are so much smoother. The trigger for the drill speed is so smooth and linear that it... Read more |
