I've been using this Challenge drill for a few months now and it's become my go-to for everything from hanging shelves to tackling masonry work around the house. The dual hammer and impact modes mean I'm not faffing about switching tools depending on what material I'm drilling into, and the 500W motor is genuinely powerful enough for serious projects without being overkill for basic jobs. What really impressed me is how the depth stop and auxiliary handle make overhead work so much easier - no more dodgy angles or wonky pilot holes. Plus, being corded means I never have to wait for batteries to charge mid-project. - Motor power: 500W - Maximum speed: 3000 RPM - Impact rate: 0-48000 blows per minute - Dual function: hammer drill and regular drill modes - Reverse rotation for screw removal - 13mm keyed chuck for secure bit grip - Drilling capacity: wood up to 25mm, steel up to 10mm, masonry up to 13mm - Depth stop handle for consistent drilling depth - Auxiliary handle for stability and control - Lock-on switch to reduce hand fatigue - Mains cord length: 2m - Weight: 1.52kg - Dimensions: H25 x W7 x D29.5cm - Includes: auxiliary handle, depth gauge, chuck key - Manufacturer's 1 year guarantee - Carry case not included
