Bosch 06033A9370 PBH 2100 RE Rotary Hammer Drill, Green
The PBH 2100 RE rotary hammer
Whether you are looking to modernise an old bathroom or even install heating or cold water pipes, the PBH 2100 RE is sure to make your ambitious projects a success. The PBH 2100 RE is suitable for both standard and more exacting drilling and chiselling jobs. When your impact drill reaches its limits, it is time to reach for the rotary hammer. It hammers in both concrete and masonry, and also lightens the load on your arms thanks to high feed pressure provided by the pneumatic hammer mechanism.

Effortless drilling in concreteThe pneumatic hammer mechanism generates its impact energy itself and thereby achieves extremely high impact force. The rotary hammer has been designed specifically for drilling in the hardest of materials without exertion of great force. It therefore allows totally effortless drilling in concrete, irrespective of the feed pressure. | Attach the chisel for easy tile removalThe PBH 2100 RE is equipped with a rotation stop for disabling the rotary motion. It can therefore be used with the chisel to remove old tiles, and even small wall openings are child’s play. Thanks to use of special retaining and power transmission grooves in the shaft, the chisel sits extremely securely and the force is transferred without any loss. | Precise work in various positionsThanks to Vario-Lock, it is possible to attach the chisel in 36 positions. This always guarantees the optimum angle between wall and chisel, while also preventing power losses due to unfavourable posture. You can therefore also use the rotary hammer to remove cable ducts. |

Easy drilling in wood and steelThanks to the rotary hammer’s impact stop function, the hammer motion can be deactivated for drilling in wood or steel. The Bosch Electronic also ensures that you can apply power sensitively using the trigger switch to prevent damage to sensitive materials such as tiles. | Optimum adjustmentThe corresponding mode can be selected simply by turning the switch. The following modes are available: Drilling without hammer function (impact stop), drilling with pneumatic hammer function, Vario-Lock for optimum adjustment of the chisel position or rotation stop for just the hammer function when using chisels. | Powerful, convenient and lightweightThe compact design and low weight, as well as the high impact force are what make the PBH 2100 RE the ideal companion for all drilling and chiselling jobs in and around the home. The adjustable auxiliary handle also ensures that you always have a good hold of the rotary hammer. Even overhead work is particularly easy. The use of SDS-plus means that the drill bits and chisels can be changed very quickly and tool-free. |

Powerful
Had to create a 10cm hole through outside wall for a vent. Super easy, drilled and hammered through the bricks like a hot knife through butter.
Excellent hammer drill. Won’t disappoint.
Superb hammer action. Remember to grease the drill bit or chisel especially if you’re doing a lot of work. Effortless through masonry.
Quality tool
I only use for occasional DIY not professionally so cannot rate on durability etc. I found it comfortable to use, not too heavy. Ergonomically well designed, easy to hold etc. Long lead is useful – in most cases at home it will reach the nearest socket without the need of an extension lead.
Disappointed that Bosch do not do an attachment for this for using regular drill bits – I had to buy one from Amazon.
Excellent drill
Hard working drill and great value for money would recommend
Well balanced and easy to use.
The drill bits specific to this tool are not those you would commonly use and there in is a hidden additional cost. But still an excellent tool.
Great drill, hammer action is great for the price
I bought this to knock off the plaster in the house.
I’ve used it in every room and it’s been reliable, easy to handle and very capable. I can’t believe it was only 66
It's a Bosch....bu
It’s a Great small powerful drill. Buts does not come with a standard drill bit. However, you can purchase a converter for about 10 – 15 pounds. (Don’t go for a cheap one)
Essential tool for the reno
Was really impressed by the power and usability of this.
While chasing out walls for our new home we had borrowed a dewalt cordless from our electrician and found the power and versitily very useful, but by the third time of having to borrow it I realised I needed to have one myself.
I have an 18v drill driver so considered the cordless route (battery ecosystem and all that) but decided to go with this one as the green Bosch 18v sds uses propitary bits and isn’t particularly powerful. Once plugged in and using the correct chisel bits this drill made easy work of brick, breeezeblock and concrete. The depth cage will come in useful while drilling out the screw holes for the back boxes.
If you have a lot of square footage that requires ultimate versility and portability then go for the Bosch Pro or another big boy name. If, like me, you’re doing some stuff short term but want a powerhouse for when you need to mount a TV or anything heavy, can’t go wrong with this.
And yes, as many comments have mentioned, you need to get SDS bits, without the chuck adaptor this WILL NOT work with your standard drill bits.
So powerful.
The drill goes through hardened concrete easily. A normal hammer drill would not touch this before. Not something the DIY person needs all the time but great when you do.

SDS drill
Nice design and has all the features expected for a hammer-drill/ breaker.
Not been tested to any degree yet, but have no reason to doubt the reliable performance of Bosch products.
Need more power? Just use this!
I’m still a DIYer learning the ropes, now growing into taking bigger jobs in and around the house. Bosch is a brand favourite, a company whose cordless drill has served me well after so many years, job after job. I eventually reached the point where I realised drilling into brick and concrete blocks needed serious power. This drill simply meets all expectations, delivering power and ease, all without needing to be a ‘professional builder’.
As with all Bosch drills, they come neatly packed in a hard-plastic carry case. I immediately could tell this drill meant serious business by the forward grip, corded connection and emphasis on the hammer switch. Be warned, this drill does not come with bits. In fact, being a specialised ‘hammer drill’ this only accepts unique bits different from the usual- SDS plus drill bits. Fortunately, they are available in a set at an affordable price which I swiftly bought with this drill. The drill bit is easier to attach than the usual screw-tightening mechanism. The SDS drill bit slots directly in. You will find the drill bit still moves but this is part of the function as the movement provides space for the hammer motion. The dial is simple to set, with options for regular drilling, hammer drilling (for brick, concrete etc.) and even chiselling which may prove useful in the future.
I wish I bought this sooner, drilling with this is like slicing through butter! The drill on hammer mode, with the forward motion pressed, speared through hard brickwork without a second’s resistance. I am not a burly figure but still managed to comfortably apply enough pressure when holding the forward grip. You will also find a provided depth measuring stick attached to the side of this drill. This is a perfect means to avoid drilling too deep. A drilling job I used to spend half an hour on, was now done in less than 10 minutes. I also proudly found with such speed and power, drilling is more precise. The drill bit does not wobble or slide against the brickwork. I was afraid there would be some smoke or serious heat but nothing! The drill and the drill bit appears untouched battling through this type of solid material. I went further in drilling into a concrete post and the results proved the same.
If you want to drill through seriously solid material, just get a hammer drill like this from Bosch. The power and speed raise the limit on the types of DIY jobs now possible with this drill.

Very effective but remember to buy the correct drill bits.
I have only used the drill for one job but should have bought the equivalent years ago. The bradstone our house is built from is pretty hard and I have struggled in the past with an ordinary drill on the outside walls. This drill with the required SDS plus drill bits(not supplied) made the drilling quick, easy and accurate. The drill is comparatively heavy compared to the battery one I use for general use but seems very good at what it was designed to be used for.

Good buy
I like it and used for DIY around the house
brilliant for the keen diy enthusias
I like the ease and comfort this drill offers any body could use i
Had to put up a fence which required drilling into a rendered breeze block wall to secure the posts. Originally bought a set of standard masonry bits for my makita cordless drill but even on the hammer function it just skidded about and knackered the bit (luckily tested it first on an inconspicuous part of that wall! )
Realising I needed a proper drill for the job I had the excuse the buy this. As I’m probably only going to use it once for this job I bought the basic model with a set of bosch sds plus bits.
Went into the block work like a hot knife through butter! Drilled 80mm deep holes with 6mm bit in less than 5 seconds. Awesome. Just hope I get to use it again as at the moment I’ve paid 75 for about 30 seconds work 🙂 . Still, a lot cheaper than paying the labour to put up the fence… and now I have a drill. Yeah!
Excelled at the job

Bought as a present for my son.He loves it.
Excelle
Excellent, have used this several times through tough concrete. Drilled through foot path over 1 meter. Difficult at that depth but did i
High Quality
A fair amount of power in a small and light weight drill. its got through solid concrete without any issues. im very happy with it.
It's Gree
Only started to use this in the past 5 weeks but It is lighter than my old Bosh drill, which is a good thing. Had to by new drill bits for it (SDS Bits) & ordered a chisel set for it as well. First time using a drill with a SDS was so fast & easy to use, just push in & when you want to take them out just pull back the collar & you just pull the drill bit out, no more chuck keys or twist & lock, Plus, No more spinning of drill bits. I’ve used the pneumatic drill, which to my delight I found that there isn’t much of any vibration. Drilled a few holes & it was a lot easier than my old Bosh drill, it was like you drilling in to butter. Life has become easier for my DIY jobs. The price is up there when you can spend about 30 on a cheap drill but this has got a lot more to offer & I’m impressed with it so far. Money well spent. Would I recommend this? Too right I would in more words than I could say. Only time will tell how long this is going to last me. If you are like me where you have collected all different types of drill bits over the years I’m afraid this product will only take SDS bits BUT NOT ALL IS LOST. You can buy a SDS chuck adaptor, Keyless or the old fashion way with a key. Don’t worry you don’t have to take the head of the new drill just simply slot the old fashion type of drill head in to the SDS drill head & away you go.

Stop. Hammertime!
This drill is great. I’ve never had an SDS drill before and this has been a life changer! It really makes light work of drilling through concrete. Just a few seconds to drill screw holes in reinforced concrete. I’ve used a 22mm x 450mm bit in it and it worked without issue (The max recommended width is 20mm).

Good value tool
Light and practical tool. Very easy to use as long as you use the correct drill bits (SDS) and whilst not the most powerful tool is good enough for a DIY job.

You can't go wrong with Bosch...
I have several of their products including a washing machine and another drill. As far as I’m concerned they’re the best.
SDS drills, perfect for hammer and chiselling work
I bought this hammer drill after borrowing one from a friend, Its the best hammer drill I’ve ever bought. Used fro drill8ng in stone and brickwork and chiselling of plaster and render, its ideal.
heavy
does the job great on a brick wall, just found it rather heavy compared to my battery dril
Great little SDS
Obviously not heavy duty, but ideal for things like drilling holes in concrete.
And I know from experience that Bosch customer service is great should anything go wrong over the next three years
Need to drill brick or blocks buy this
I drilled 3 tiny holes with my cordless hammer drill into bricks lol took almost a hour I bought this drill did 4 holes in less than 5 minutes. Perfect hi speed hammer drill for brick and concrete block that was a 6 mm hole I drilled a 20 cm hole took lots longer but I know my cordless would have taken days

A good product dor the money i paid and drills well.
I bought this to mount some curtains up around the house and furniture that must hang on the walls.
I needed something to drill deep into the masonry and it did the job very well. The only thing that i don’t like its that thing that you attach it on the side to prevent you from drilling deeper than you need. Sometimes it just slips off when it hits the wall and i go deeper than i want risking going through the wall completely. Apart from this jts a great machine
Brilliant tool!!
Absolutely fantastic. Giveaway price too. Did an amazing job of ripping off 19 sq m of quarry tiles.

Be aware this is an SDS Plus Drill, will not take standard drill bits
Be aware this is an SDS Plus Drill, will not take standard drill bits. Shame it is not in product title or short description, just stated keyless chuck, mentioned some way down the page the sds bit. I had to purchase some new sds plus drill bits, but also purchased and sds plus adapter which converts it to a standard chuck too, so best of both worlds. If you decide on chuck adapter, get the Bosch brand (B0009W873Q) as read reviews on others and they fall apart.

Brilliant.. Powerful.. Does the job others can't do.
OMG This drill is amazing. Ive used hammer drills on other jobs including fitting blinds.. Fixing washing lines to them old concrete posts etc and ended up.. Sweating.. Shaking with the effort I was putting in and simply not being able to drill into the materials. This drill just makes it so easy I’m looking for jobs to do lol. I also bought some decent bits as well to go with it.

Just Great 😃
Very happy with drill, my old Black n Decker gave up whilst I was trying to drill into my garage wall, which is made from concrete blocks. To my amazement, and using the correct drill bits this went right through like a knife through butter.
Would deffinately recomend.

Cheap and surprisingly good
I stopped buying Bosch when they started feeling Chinese but this Drill has impressed me
Does what it is expected to do.
Eats through house bricks with 10mm and 12mm masonry drills. As that’s the job i needed done its perfect.
Used ear plugs but probably could have done without. Numb fingers after 10 holes soon faded and on I went after a short rest.

Bosch Rotary hammer drill.
This was my husband’s Christmas present and he was delighted. He says it’s superb. He has had other drills but not as good as this one. We had moved house at the end of September and he’s had to use it a lot since. Final comment from him, “brilliant”
Powerful and easy to use
Idel for those jobs where you need more power. Drills into concrete blocks with ease
Drill for masonry
Drilling with it is so easy now. Would buy it again.
Great quality and value for money.
This is my first masonry drill, and I found it very easy to use. Drill holes are precise, and the machine itself much quieter than my normal drill (however, earmuffs, goggles and mask are recommended to protect yourself from dust and other risks of injury). Drill bits not included, but this matches the product description (consider an extra 4-5GBP for each drill bit you may need). Great value for money.
Its really Good , what more could you want .
Type of use
Advanced DIY .
Used on rotary / hammer with a 20mm core bit for pipes and on hammer only action to chase out cement for repointing , this drill made it ALL easy, absolutely no problem , of course removing old mortar you have to learn best practise with the drill and which way is most effective. That just took couple of minutes .
Previously I was struggling with repointing with hammer/ chisel because of hard mortar , this drill made job trouble free and lot less ( 50 % at least ) work.
Drill performance
Well built , powerful , versatile , didn’t jam in bricks , doesn’t get hot when used continuously or enthusiastically .
Conclusion
I paid more for the Bosch name on the tool ( though I know it was made in the far east ) because I hoped the maker would ensure quality in the product .
Good decision . Yes , I would recommend drill . well worth the money .

Feels like a real professional tool
I bought for my husband for Xmas and he is over the moon! He said it’s so easy to use it and it feels like a ‘professional’ tool
It’s sturdy and robust, very good product!
Good all rounder.
I’m a spark. Ted up having my top quality power tools being stolen.
Just slightly dropped a level to this drill. Very pleasant surprise. Good all rounder. Maybe a wee bit lacking power on chisel but not enough to go crazy over. Weight a wee it high but probably needed for the power factor.

Good produc
Cant fault it so far. Has mixed up plaster , board adhesive ,done some hammer drilling and chiseling. Hopefully it will see me through my house renovatio
Excellent drill
Used to drill into concrete posts. Easy to use and effective. I should have bought this product 20 years ago rather than struggle with my useless old hammer drill.
Drills quickly and with ease
Never looked forward to drilling jobs around the house with my previous hammer drill (also a Bosch).. but this one did the job with significant ease by comparison because of the rotary action… almost no effort required to quickly drill 4 holes (10mm x 75mm) to mount a TV bracket. Didn’t come with any drill bits so ordered up a set of Bosch SDS Plus bits. It’s lightweight and good value considering the speed and ease of drilling.

Good investment for diy
Great piece of equipment to invest in for DIY. Ive removed a tonne of brickwork from my living room chimney breast using this on the hammer drill setting (bought drill bits separately) so i know it’s powerful. Good for general drilling too. Thumbs up if this review was helpful
Great drill
Good powerful drill suitable for most jobs, also has a reverse which is really useful

The drill has never skipped a beat and it is a great bit of kit at a little value.
drill
ew Bosch drill arrived on time as all orders do when ordered from amazon 1st class service
Great!
Great product. Nice and easy to use. Goes innto really hard concrete. Loving it!
Worth the money
This was a lifesaver when we moved houses. Plenty of things we had to drill holes into the brick walls for.
So far it had enough power for every job.
The only thing to keep in mind is when you have to turn of electricity in the house because of safety reason while drilling, this won’t work. A battery powered impact driver would be the better choice but also less power.

Best drill I've ever used
Using this drill is one of life’s pleasures. I see why other reviewers have said they’d like to take their’s on holiday with them.
It cuts through concrete and brick like it’s not even there. You’ll actually be wondering if there is a problem with the wall you’re drilling into because it does it so effortlessly.
You have to buy new drill bits because it uses a great system for inserting and retaining the bits but this is also fantastic.
It’s also not just a hammer drill. It’s a normal drill, a driver and a chisel if you buy the chisel bits.
If you do take it with you on holiday, don’t check it in with your suitcases as baggage handlers will certainly grab it. The security people on the x-ray machine will understand and let you through when they see the look of joy and satisfaction you have on your face as you describe using this drill to them.

A name you can trus
I have always been a fan of Bosch tool, second to none! Brilliant. The drill is no exception. The fact that this drill uses drill bits which lock into the chuck is what makes this drill so powerful when drilling into even the hardest lintel.
The added chuck means you can use normal drill bits which you have a chuck key for.
Drill would suit any homeowner or contractor, even when it drills into a masonary wall on hammer, it doesn’t have that horrid noise you get with a lot of drills.. Just be very careful because this drill fitted with the bosch drill bits will go through most masonary you just as well be drilling into butter!

Excelle
Very good quality product. The chisel function works well for chasing out and so much more effective then a standard cordless with hammer function when drilling masonry! Minces through walls
ease of use.
Used for chiseling out old pointing on my patio. Did a good job !

Bosch jammer drill
Not used it yet but Bosch are a very good product and iam 100% sure it will stand up to the use it was made fo
Excellent produc
This is great for drilling into masonry. I’ve used cheaper corded hammer drills in the past and had no luck drilling into concrete lintels. With this drill it’s so easy. You’ll need some SDS drill bits (6 for 19) and if you want to use it with regular drill bits for woodwork you will need an adapter, which costs just under 20. It comes in a nice box, which you can store the adapter and drill bits in too. My only gripe is that the manual isn’t very clear at explaining the features of the drill. Rather than a few pages translated into 14 other languages, I would prefer a longer english version written for beginners, even if it is just available online.

It works perfectly
Drill is perfect it works well l Oderd x2 by mistake l need to send one back bosh drill is the best l love it it works very well.
I battled for an hour with an older Bosch hammer drill and masonry bits to drill holes in hard stone, to attach an outside water tap. #Fail
I bought this. Transformative impact – three deep holes drilled in a mere couple of minutes.
BUT make sure to buy the SDS easy-fit drill bits. I didn’t at first (the product blurb says to use SDS bits, but does not emphasise it) and bought normal bits, so wasted some money.
NB too that this is quite a big heavy powerful drill for grown-ups – the box won’t fit on the well-sized shelf where the old Bosch 600 box lived happily.
Good news for me. Bad news for Bosch. My drilling needs for the rest of my life are met.

Sturdy, but not heavy
I used it for breaking concrete and drilling into concrete
It did it easily, reasonably quiet as well
Let the weight of the drill do the work, applying pressure doesn’t help, and gives you backache!
Amazing machine that will go through concrete like it is butte
Rarely do reviews here but I suppose many will be looking at this rotary hammer drill because they couldn’t complete a job with their normal drill.
I had to do a 10mm x 70mm hole in a concrete ceiling on a new build. A normal hammer drill I had with Bosch bits couldn’t even do a couple of cm with a 6mm bit. This drill went through the concrete like butter (or like hard frozen butter). I didn’t even need to use larger and larger bits. A single 10mmx20cm was used to do everything. It is simply a game changer vs a normal drill so if you are here because you are stuck not being able to complete a job this is the tool you are missing.
Bosch also sells a blue version for 20-30. As always, for an odd job this consumer edition will do the job. I am just sorry that some bits feel cheap like the depth-gauge that is plastic and doesn’t look like it will last long.

Fantastic drill, specially when I got it on a Black Friday 50 offer.
Had to buy some SDS drill bits with it, and a converter chuck for normal bits, but otherwise it’s good! Comes with a plastic case.
3 modes: normal drill, hammer drill, hammer only / chisel mode. Has a comfy front handle that can be repositioned, as well as a measuring stick for depth. A tad heavy but not overly so.
It does NOT have a torque selector, but you can control speed with the trigger.
My only wish is that it had a safety! (To prevent accidental trigger press), I keep having to turn it off at the switch between jobs.

Useful
Handy drill to have wouldn’t use it regularly but it’s there if I need i
Great value
Purchased this as I only had a cordless drill and wanted something with a bit more power, this drill is everything I wanted and more for the price it’s very good,only used it an handful of times at the moment and purchased the Bosch sds drill bits to go with it which also come with a chisel bit that goes through a breeze block wall with ease. Well worth every penny 5stars.

Drill
Works fine, handy to have that extra oomph when needed. I use it with an ads to standard chuck converter mostly.
