Feels like handling a corded drill it is so powerful. Much better and heavier than the smaller Makita combi's I bought before which I was impressed with at the time. This one is a revelation. I don't think it will stall or burn out so quick when drilling into say green wood. If you can find one at a good price then get this, not one of the lesser Makita combi's. Compared to those the added torque is awesome. THIS IS NOT A TOY! I have to say, only difference from corded on the downside (like all battery drills I have come across) is that it does not have the drill speed of a corded. Apart from that it is hard to tell the difference in use, other than the brilliant convenience of this drill. I have got the Makita LXT impact driver and the bigger SDS 18V LXT so battery power fulfils all my drilling needs apart from core drilling in masonry and breaking rocks. What a wonderful world we now live in :)Read full review

This is a very solid well constructed product with a quality feel. It is very refined in operation, able to start slowly with good control. Good range of torque settings. Twin light is an advantage, as you get less shadows. Handle and depth stop are useful additions, as is the battery level indicator. Very powerful with high torque, so you will find you don't need a mains powered drill as often. It is quite large and heavy, compared to say the DHP456 which has a better balance overall. I find myself wanting a lighter more compact drill on occasions. For the performance you get, this is an excellent value product and very versatile. Definitely recommend it, but you may want to also buy a smaller lighter unit for prolonged use day in day out.

Its worth paying a bit extra for the BHP458 compared with the economy makita combi drills. Left it with the lad to drill 50 or so rawl plugs into a concrete floor to install underfloor heating. Did the lot on a single charge 5.5 amp battery without over heating.
