The Bosch GSB 1800 comes with a 3 year manufacturer's warranty, a CoolPack battery and charger.

Why "cold", explain? This is a Bosch "Blue" series, a tradesman's power tool. £89.99 is a good price and most people would agree. You sound like a bit of a knob, mate!

Can someone who has already purchased this drill kindly post up the SCrewfix Item number for this item? (It'll be on your receipt email).
I can swear this was available few days ago with loads of stock locally, but its now been taken down just I received a £15 off voucher.

Just for info, bought mine 9 months ago for £99 and the chuck is dead already which is incredible as it only comes out of the cupboard once a month or so for the odd job here and there. Not used anywhere near the amount a tradesmen would use it. Could be a one off of course but can't say I'm massively impressed.

Use mine for work everyday for wood/steel/masonry had it for a year so far and it's going brilliant and the 3ah battery can last me all day normally.
Much better than the similar prices hitachi that screwfix offer as I had that before. Heat!

Bought this a couple of years ago for £150 with a 4ah battery and case. Bought a second battery off eBay for £45 which I use on my impact driver. These are great drills. Don't confuse these with the green range, it's like comparing Manchester United against Grimsby Town. Hot from me at this price

Agreed. Grimsby Town are a far better team.

for some reason the other part of the message didn't send. It was supposed to read " cold because it's not an 11.99 argos drill" this was all meant in good banter and I actually votes the deal hot. Guess I have to blame my virgin mobile contract

First three comments say this is the same price, so not a deal, never mind being hot. So right to say cold.
Cold.

That is the Green DIY range which does not compare to the Blue Profesional range.
Green rage still good for DIY but definitely worth paying a little more for a Blue model if you're looking to do any serious work

95min charger lets it down a bit. My fan cooled Makita 3.0AH batteries charge from flat in 20mins. Nice post OP. HEAT.

That's a bit harsh. He was only expressing his democratic opinion. On the plus side a knob can be useful at times.

Green diy range, only 10mm chuck. Ok for some for just diy.
