EXCELLENT! I was just thinking about drilling next to a park.

EXCELLENT! I was just thinking about drilling next to a park.

i have one of these when they first came out and they are really good
nice and light but powerful too
for £14.99 you cant go wrong

i wonder are you not better buying this one for 29.99? as this one is cordless and has Torque settings:

Keep off the Ni-cad's as they die if you don't use them often or leave them on charge for too long.....don't lend them to out like I did and the batteries came back goosed.

No you wouldn't be better off with that. Double the price and won't last half as long.

I keep getting error with your first link, so no comment.
I wouldn't buy your 12v deal because it's got 1 year less guarantee, no hammer action, Ni-cad batteries have poor power retention and die forever if not fussed over. I also suspect that as it's only a 12v battery the B&D will not be as powerful and it's dearer. Annoyingly Lidl give very little info on their site about the product, so I would check the spec on the box.

for things like this avoid nicad, old tech and loses power over time. LiLion is far better and retains power, so dont need to keep charging before use, i have a bosch lilion and battery has plenty of power left without charging for months.

Also voltage makes a big difference. i have multiple drills for various uses, a 10.8v is fine for light duty, so wood or holes in softer materials and using as a screwdriver, this just has torque and drill, no hammer (although i have an 10.8 impact driver for lots of driving which is noisy but lots more torque than a normal drill), 12v wont be much better i imagine, and my 18v hammer drill has been used for most jobs and barely struggles with anything. Even drilling 2x 2" holes into a concrete floor for a secure floor lock worked fine, but did empty out both battery's nearer the end.

But if you want a corded drill, ignore the above as even my cheap homebase own brand corded drill has lasted for years, but my 18v cordless performs 99.9% of what most people would use and is usually on offer for circa £90 most months (bosch 18v lilion cordless drill), and my corded has rarely been used as too much faff to get out when the cordless does the job.

As for the parkside brand, i have a SDS from lidl and worked well when fitting drainage for a washing machine and dishwasher, also for breaking concrete on a patio, no issues and whilst i don't expect it to perform like one twice the price, sometimes you dont need something that costs more to do what you need.
