Metabo HPT 18V MultiVolt Power Drill Driver

I've used Metabo tools since they were Hitachi and own drills, impact guns, nail and brad guns and compressors. They are high quality and built to last.

This drill looks just as well built & bullet proof as my corded Hitachi (prior brand name) drill.

No complaints with Hitachi/Metabo

I can’t say I had heard of this brand before, I even asked my brother in law who is a mechanic and he hadn’t heard of it either. I had to do some research on the brand and it’s actually a top tier brand. Metabo was acquired by hitachi, which is a brand I have heard about, which is why the name was changed to Metabo HPT ( hitachi power tools). Metabo is originally known for expensive high end tools but has recently released inexpensive tools that perform really well for the price. The drill itself is very well made, the rubberized coating is thick so it feels great to hold and it’s been offering great protection for my drill so far. I’ve set the drill down in concrete and on the shingles of my roof while installing a solar panel and the drill has no scratches on it. The shape of the handle is super comfortable to grip, to me it feels better than the dewalt drill I had. The drill also looks to have plenty of strength, speed and battery power. I installed a small solar panel next to my roof for a spot light and it drilled holes and drove the larger bolts perfectly fine. I also scrubbed my shower with a round drill brush attachment which requires long spin times and speed and the drill worked as well as the corded drill I typically use. After doing both jobs plus also scrubbing my car wheels with a smaller drill brush and drilling some screws the battery still has 75% power and this is after the first charge, it takes several charges for the battery to reach optimal level. The charger works fine and the carry bag is very convenient. Overall this drill is pretty awesome especially for the price, it’s basically a less expensive tool made by a company that makes high end products. The tool is very well made that literally the only reason it’s at its current price is because the motor is brushed, brushless is superior but it’s also more expensive so brushed is what you’ll typically see below 200. The only downside to power tools like these in general is that they all use different batteries, every brand’s batteries are only compatible with their products. I currently don’t have cordless power tools so I wouldn’t mind starting a Metabo collection of their other products are as good as this one but if you already have a collection form a certain brand then not being able to interchange batteries would be something to keep in mind.

Great Drill/Driver with good power, balanced, easy to operate, easy to change batteries, lighter in weight than my old Craftsmans and Dewalt Drill/Drivers, and the battery holds up well. On the other hand,, read the description carefully...I assumed it came with two batteries, but it comes with just one. My oversight. Otherwise, no complaints

The thing has no power. I returned the first one and ordered a replacement, but it also has no power. Forget about using a wood auger 1/2" or bigger. Also, rotational speed, even on high, is slow. This comes as a great disappointment because I've been extremely impressed with my Metabo 3/8 drill and driver combo. Those were so good they inspired me to buy the 1/2-inch drive. It's truly a waste of money. But a Hercules from Harbor Freight or get a Dewalt or Milwaukee and you'll be far happier.

My s/o has tools aplenty, but I wanted to have my own drill that I know where it's stored, I know how long it's been since it's been charged, and I'm tired of being the primary suspect if a drill isn't in a place where it should be, lol. This drill is comfortable for my smaller hands to hold, it's not too heavy but doesn't feel flimsy, and it seems well made. Using it seems to be on par with the Dewalt drills that we have and use often, and it has already come in handy many times for me. This drill has enough torque to dig into thick and hardened fence posts for affixing floodlights, and has helps to make furniture and fencing assembly come together in a more timely manner. This drill is quite comfortable for me to use, even at head level. The battery charges quickly, and still has not needed a recharge despite all of the use I've put it through. I'm quite satisfied with this power drill and how well it handles the jobs I've used it for.

This drill has the power and punch I've come to expect from Metabo/Hitachi and I'm glad that even the newest dual voltage tools and batteries still work with the older Hitachi 18v batteries. This is so much better than some of the other brands that change battery style/compatibility every few years when they want to come out with a new tool appearance. I'm not a die-hard Metabo guy and I've got cordless gear from Ryobi, Hitachi, Dewalt, Greenworks...maybe more. At some point I might consolidate, but for now they each have their place. The cheaper stuff like Ryobi is great for simple tasks and letting the kids use for projects, but if I really need to drive a heavy lag screw or turn a large bit, I go for the Hitachi/Metabo stuff. For the exact same size/voltage drill, it puts out a ton more power. The only thing I'm not sure of is how it compares torque-wise to my old Hitachi. The low range on my old one was 0-350rpm while this one is 0-450rpm so the gearing is a bit higher. Maybe I'll hook it up to my trusty torque wrench and see what each one is able to hit. For real-world use I can't say that I can tell a difference, but I'm curious.

Una herramienta que cumple con lo ofrecido, buen precio
