Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Unbeliveable. My $1,400 Bosch tanked after 10 years. Got this until I could find parts for old Bosch. Not looking for repair parts now. This thing is impressive. Busted up an 8ft wide by 100ft 4in deep drive in 2 days by myself at the age of 50. Yes bits are hardened. It has a 15 amp plug even though it says 2200 watts. According to kil-o-watt it pulls 1870 watts@120 volts. Make sure you use a 12ga extension cord for runs up to 100ft. Tried it on my 14ga but voltage drop was severe and strained tool. What it nice is this design has time out of patent so anyone can build it now. It is the same design my grandfather used in the 1960s. Yes it's old school but buy a set of welder gloves to "soften" the blows. Really $159? Remember also to add oil it comes only with a drop of test oil you will burn it out if you don't. Manual says shell rotella which is Diesel engine oil 40w. Came with retightning wrench, oil sight glass removal tool for oil. Very sharp blunt tip bit and 1 1/2 wide spade bit. Sorry for long review but these were answers I looked for before buying. The only drawback is the case it is very cheap plastic and arrived cracked but I don't need it. Blow force is actually 37 to 41 pounds quite impressive. Becareful when using it is very easy especially after you tire to rest tool against leg blocking air cool intake heating motor up fast. Anyway for you Union guys that will bark at me for getting this (I have spent thousands over the years buying american when possible) this hammer does what the $900 hammers do. Laughing all the way to the bank.
