    Compact with power.!
    My friend asked me to get this drill, it’s a compact hammer drill and it is very good for the jobs around the home and it is powerful enough to drill holes up to 8 to 10mm, I’m not sure if it can do bigger holes through masonry but it will drill larger holes through wood using the correct drill bit, very good value for money and as usual Bosch does not let you down.

    When you know what you’re doing with a drill, then this a good un! I’d definitely recommend for the DIYr, drills into brickwork with the right drills no bother, the hammer action is good, yes, as a tradesman I definitely recommend this drill for DIY.

    When a cordless just won't cut it, but space is a problem.
    I used this drill to operate a milling head bit in a support for accurate machining , and needing the consistent power and torque at low revs that you can only get with a corded machine. I chose this because of it’s weight, size and rating to use in an under bonnet environment. It performed admirably as only a Bosch would.

    I considered buying a drill set with various accessories included, however decided to buy the Bosch and separate bits.
    My preference was a corded electric drill as I feel battery (although portable) can lack the required punch. When fitting a TV bracket to the wall with this drill, 3 of the holes went into the blockwork like butter – the fourth and final hole, well no surprise hit the hard stuff – switched to the hammer mode and TV was up in no time!
    The depth gauge is handy since is adjusts with ease, also like the way paper manual storage is in the box lid. Well pleased with the purchase.

    Locking mechanism could be a little more positive but apart from that very good. One thing I have to mention is I as yet I have not been able to get it registered when you try online it won’t accept the password they send you tried several times, have heard that others have had the same problem.

    Does what it says on the tin, the drill has 2 handles so ideal for difficult surfaces that require a bit of force to drill through. The cable length isn’t very long. Attachments are easy to use and connect. Would recommend this product. Keep an eye out for Amazon offers as Bosch are often on sale.

    Golden Review Award: 40 From Our UsersA look at the chuck problems
    Witing this to try and address some of the chuck problems reported by others. I bought this despite some of the negative comments, there are lots of positive ones too. It does have what might be a design flaw in that heavy drilling sometimes causes the chuck to slip, especially when drilling into metal where the bit has a tendency to snatch just at the point where it breaks through. The solution is obviously to use hex bits which are slightly more expensive but it does solve the problem. I suspect that may be where the flaw originates from because the designers had to come up with something to accomodate both hex and smooth bit fittings. Apart from that it is extremely well made, smooth running and offers exeptional value for money. I’m happy to own this and as a non-professional it will do everything I want it for around the house for wall drilling, woodwork and occasional metalwork.

    Sturdy,user friendly & looks classy . Worth buying for even people who are not professional. Well, it’s convenient to buy a heavy duty extension to get enough length while working away from the plug point. I also bought Bosch’s drill set that is extra, but nice set to work along with. Overall input 8.5+ out of 10.

    Overall, I’m really pleased with this Easyimpact 550 Hammer Drill. It’s lightweight, powerful and very good value. It comes in a smart Bosch case and is comfortable in the hand when drilling and relatively quiet in operation. Drill bit change is easy, however during the first change, the drill bit in the chuck was stuck tight. The outer collar of the chuck was extremely difficult to rotate and took 20 minutes to free- up. After that initial problem all future drill bit changes were easy and there’s been no problem since. So, despite the initial hiccup i have no hesitation in recommending this powerful little drill.

    Good control of speed via the switch smooth action and no snatching, however it has a keyless chuck which cannot cope with hammering as the bit comes loose – a bit hazardous.
    Otherwise a nice drill for the price.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersThis is a good cheap drill
    Very fast spin and with a good drill bit, goes through brick like knife through butter. And the hammer is fast with hardly any vibrations to travel through your arm and shoulder. Not easy to use with screw bits though, because it’s a little too quick for that. And if there’s too much resistance then it simply won’t spin, presumably in order that the motor doesn’t burn out. I found that a disappointment because my cheap as chips B&Q own brand cordless will just power through, albeit a less powerful drill. So on the whole I’m pleased with it, but there’s no reverse, you can’t really use screw bits, and it won’t spin if there’s too much resistance.
