- Reviewed in Canada on February 25, 2024Verified PurchaseThis is one of the best drills for drilling wood/doors/ hardwood etc it is a beast with all metal inside no plastic parts at all quality makita product
- Reviewed in Canada on July 30, 2024Verified PurchaseLots of power
- Reviewed in Canada on June 4, 2024Verified Purchaseit was a great drill, lots of power.
Now it has a short of some kind, it instantly drains any battery within seconds when under heavy use.
- Reviewed in Canada on April 23, 2025Verified PurchaseI bought it in March 2025. It just died today. It's April 23, 2025. Not impressed
- Reviewed in Canada on February 20, 2024Verified PurchaseSeems to slip into 1st constantly
- Reviewed in Canada on May 28, 2024Verified PurchaseDrill was exceptional for about 8 months of use, almost scary amount of torque, great quality Japanese chuck, the clutch is annoying as others pointed out but otherwise makita quality.
One day drilling a 1/4" hole in aluminium, the drill stopped half way through and the light just blinked then it instantly killed the battery.
Turns out there's no warranty from amazon and the serial numbers don't exist to be able to warranty anywhere else. Parts, which is the whole motor and computer assembly, is worth more then the price of a new drill.
Both drills I bought now just blink and instantly drain/kill batteries.

Serafino MancaReviewed in Italy on February 5, 2023
5.0 out of 5 stars Utensile serio per lavori gravosi
Verified PurchaseTrapano avvitatore senza percussioni, come è giusto che sia per un utensile così piccolo (per tassellare serve altro), che svolge perfettamente i compiti adeguati. Fora legno, metallo ed altri materiali se dotato delle punte adatte. Riesce ad avvitare viti di dimensioni spropositate grazie ai suoi 130 Nm di coppia, il più potente avvitatore Makita alimentato da una batteria da 18 V. Consigliato se si è disposti ad accettare il peso elevato rispetto ai modelli meno potenti, solita qualità Makita riservata agli utensili professionali.
Ottimo servizio 鶹, come sempre.

4.0 out of 5 stars bien mais la DHP486 est plus polyvalente
Verified PurchaseJe l'ai renvoyée pour acheter la même en DHP qui a la fonction percussion en plus du couple de serrage réglable et de la fonction foreuse comme celle-ci. C'est beaucoup plus polyvalent pour forer dans du béton par exemple sans devoir sortir l'artirie lourde...

5.0 out of 5 stars Makita Kalitesi
Verified PurchaseMakita yine kalitesini konuşturuyor. 130 newton metre gibi çok yüksek bir torka sahip. Burgu uç ve forstner uçları ile harikalar yaratıyor. İnanılmaz güçlü bir cihaz. Kullanırken dikkatli olmak gerekiyor. 鶹 yine her zamanki gibi harika hız ve özenle paketlemesi için çok teşekkür ediyorum.
