I think the QC on these is very low, probably something silly like 1 in every 4 or 5 will have a problem, I first got one and Hammer mode didn't activate, took it back, 2nd one lasted a few hours of chisseling then decided it wouldn't turn on anymore, that said I've had the 3rd for 6 months now and it's been fine... Though haven't used it properly for a few months now lol... Just be cautious, I'd deffo go DeWalt or something like that next time...

I had one to take the tiles and plaster of my bathroom walls. It has since lifted all the tiles in the kitchen and cut a 2 meter channel in concrete path. Still going strong. You can't compare this to dewalt it's diy only.

I bought the larger Kango type, has dug out 80m2 of 150mm concrete, a large outside wall, and about 15m2 of outdoor concrete path. Still going strong.

had one of these for a few years now - done everything from breaking concrete to core drilling with no issues at all.
If you can find a DeWalt that will do 8J impact energy for anything approaching this price then go for it - but you won't. Even a 2J SDS from a trade-type brand runs double what they sell these for. And if they break take them back and get a new one.
Be warned though - it's heavy and very powerful. Not really any use for drilling small holes around the house as the imapct energy is really high!

I had one of these. The clutch to rotate the chuck snapped, so it could only be used a chisel. Ended up stripping it down to see how it worked lol. It was powerful enough for everything i needed it for.

Bought one of these for £60 about a year ago to strip plaster off a wall. Also used it to clean up some old bricks. Really powerful piece of kit, goes through plaster like butter!
