  • Wise experienced DIYers and professionals alike (I'm looking at you @Airhead) I need recommendation for a decentish drill to replace my £10 Argos one. Nothing too expensive really.
    All the thanks.

  • I have three Bosch "green" drills. One mains and a 10.8V and 18V Lithium Ion battery types. Made in Hungary. I've found them to be perfect in use, and cheap to buy. If I was working in the trade then I may have gone down the Makita or Dewalt route.

  • I have a pair of 10.8v Dewalts that were on offer in screw fix, nice and light for more delicate work. Used them quite a lot in a workshop and seem good.

    At work we have a 12v Milwaukee which is obviously more powerful and also nice and light, that gets quite a hammering and is holding up much better that the old Makita we used to have. The battery integrated in the handle means it doesn't stand up and only lies on it side. Not sure if this is a good or bad thing.
