Tools and Hardware Reviews of Bosch 1031VSR 7.5 Amp 3/8-Inch Drill
Customer Review: This is a great drill for the money
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this with a few basic requirements in mind:
1. I didn't want cordless because I didn't want to deal with batteries, and I'm using it in my home woodworking shop where I have plenty of outlets handy.
2. I wanted something relatively lightweight and small.
3. I didn't want to spend a lot of money.
4. I didn't want a keyless chuck - they might be convenient, but I can never get them tight enough.
I've had very good luck with Bosch tools, which is why I went with this particular unit. It did not disappoint. No frills, lots of torque, variable speed, and the chuck holds much better than any keyless chuck I've ever used.
I only have two minor gripes:
1. I wish it came with a case. For the money, I don't think it's really fair to expect one, either.
2. The noise level is a little bit high - it's kind of shrill and hard on the ears. I have to wear earplugs while using it.
Overall, I highly recommend this drill. I like it enough that I will buy a second one when the budget permits.
