Good find, I wouldn't touch the Bosch DIY range, (green finish) but the professional range are better quality. Don't forget to register the warranty as last time I bought one I got an extra year for registering online.

I have a couple of bosch professional drill and one is 5 years old and still going strong. I use them quite a lot as I am an electrician. Best drills I have every purchased.

Looks like free delivery and £15 cashback as well (so £85)
Okay drill for the price, but the 18-ve-2-li is the professional one, this one is for light work.

It is a professional one. All blue bosch drills are aimed at the professional. Green ones are aimed at the DIY'er. Although it is entry level professional, which is better than the green ones.

Same price at B&Q

B&Q don't sell this drill with the 2Ah batteries. Only 1.5 or 1.3
Actually it looks as though the cashback is only available if you buy direct from the Bosch store (and then it gets credited to your account).

You need to get the app from Bosch. This is what they say.
It’s easy to collect your cash. These 3 simple steps should take less than a few minutes on your Smartphone
1. Download the FREE Bosch Toolbox App via Google Play Store or iTunes app store
2. Create a simple profile
3. When prompted by the App, take a photo of your purchase receipt on your smartphone and email it via the App (note: your receipt must be for one of the products specified in this booklet, dated within the promotion period of 1.10.2015 to 31.12.2015)
To download the app visit http://www.bosch-professional.com/static/specials/toolbox-app/gb/en/

Check their site, they now do ''Entry level pro use'' versions of stuff. Probably a green one's internals, with a bigger chuck and fancy box with blue exterior.
Discovered this when I was replacing several tools last year, put me right off Bosch.

I did say that it is "entry level professional." You might be right in what you say, but that would still make it better than all the green ones. Plus you get 2 x 2Ah batteries. What would buy for £85?

Yes - I read that and I've looked at the app, but I'm not sure this applies if bought from a 3rd party retailer. Also, I don't think you get actual cash back - it says it credits the money to your Bosch account, which would be useless for many.

Unfortunately still not cleared up!
The terms state upload a picture of your invoice (not receipt) Same thing you might be thinking. Apart from in the terms directly underneath it also states do not send pictures of receipts or it will void your claim. So basically still as clear as mud?
Out of stock again before I could buy! :disappointed:

Received the item today, very happy with the purchase. Looking for guidance from someone else who has benefited from this deal.
I didn't receive a receipt just a delivery note in the box. Likewise only a confirmation email was received upon order.
Anyone know how to claim the cashback from Bosch via the mobile app when no receipt was sent.

Log in into the store account, you will get an option to view or print the invoice.

Thanks for the suggestion but I checked out as a guest and paid via PayPal so I don't have an account. I have just taken a photo of the delivery note which details my name, address and the item. If it is rejected by Bosch I guess my only hope is to email Powertoolworld and request an invoice.

Good price but I would still rate my Makita drills over Bosch any day.

You have right to your opinion.Obviously, the key word here is 'my' :smiley:

I received mine about 3 days ago. I phoned them last week and was told it had been back ordered and would be delivered this week. I'm very happy with the drill but many people are reporting problems trying to claim the cashback
Yes. That's why i said my. Quality wise Bosch is fine for occasional DIY jobs but they aren't as robust as pro tools like Makita or Dewalt - hence the massive price difference.
My last Bosch drill still turns fine, but the on/off trigger and variable speed dial broke years ago.
