Really pleased with this drill smaller than I was expecting but that turned out to be a good thing handy bit of kit

I liked the size of this product, it’s small and light.. ideal for hard to fit spaces and above head drilling.!

Light drill which makes it less of a tony wreck to handle when drilling upwards most importantly and doesn’t drain your batteries to quick, overall banging drill yeno da

AAA+++

This thing is amazing. I've been making heavy use of it since I bought it and it never complains. Lightweight and powerful.

The Makita DHR171Z is a lightweight drill with excellent SDS drilling qualities, the low rotational speed of just 680rpm is combined with a high 4800 impact blows per minute giving the drill amazing drilling power, holes are drilled in concrete in a fraction of time compared to other drills that are just starting to make an impression.

This drill bought for use off ladders or at height where one is unable to apply pressure against the drill bit, the Makita does not need any force to be applied the drill cuts a hole in seconds without the normal bounce due to the high impact rate and slow turning speed, this allows the SDS bits to work as intended and at their best.
The drill is lightweight at just 1.6Kg so can be used one handed, ideal for ladder work, the DHR171Z is just an SDS drill and cannot chisel or stop rotation, it is designed for one purpose that it excels at, SDS drilling.

Very pleased, preforms better than I expected. Lightweight so easy to use when on steps of ladders. Certainly recommend

Tryed out my hammer drill absolutely brilliant 👏
Great quality and value for money

Lightweight, works smoothly

great tool, easy to use, lightweight. perfect for use up ladders

All good

Veri gud

Price is reasonable and good for most common and day to day tasks, but recommend 4/5amp battery to get right power required from it to operate!

Fantastic
Seems underpowered when you pull the trigger but once you’re drilling it is excellent, powerful & even with 4AaH batteries it does loads of holes.
Worth the money

Brilliant drill. Handy when it comes to drilling above your head, very light weight. Ok for drilling 5.5mm holes all day long. Something more powerful for bigger holes required.
