## Before you buy

- The listing gives 2800 rpm as maximum rotational speed and also lists three speeds, but does not explain how speed selection works. Confirm the specific speed-control arrangement if it matters to your work. The stated 120 volts may also be worth checking for your intended electrical supply. Manufacturer performance and capacity statements are claims, not independent test results. The dimensions and weight are listing details, not independently confirmed measurements.

## In the box

- 6.5A corded hammer drill (Included)

## A good fit for

- DIYers who need one corded drill for standard drilling and hammer-mode work.
- Buyers drilling near an outlet who prefer not to manage battery charging.
- Users who want a 1/2-inch keyless chuck and adjustable side handle.

## Less suited to

- People who need cordless mobility or routinely work far from an outlet.
- Buyers prioritizing strong reassurance about long-term housing and chuck durability based on customer feedback.

## Customer feedback

Customer feedback reports that the drill works well and has enough power for concrete, with some buyers finding it better than expected for the price. However, feedback also raises concerns about housing durability, build quality, the bit-holding mechanism and locking mechanism, and views on quality are mixed. Those concerns matter for buyers expecting frequent or demanding use, even though the listing describes a corded 6.5-Amp tool with hammer mode. The overall rating distribution includes a substantial five-star share alongside a notable one-star share, so it does not erase the reported drawbacks.
- Positive themes: Some customers describe the drill as effective and powerful enough for concrete.
- Positive themes: Some customers consider its performance better than expected for the price.
- Negative themes: Customer feedback reports concerns about housing durability and build quality.
- Negative themes: Some feedback is critical of the bit-holding and locking mechanisms.
- Mixed feedback: Opinions on overall quality are mixed.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can the BEHD201 be used for ordinary drilling as well as hammer drilling?
Yes. The listing describes a two-position switch for standard-drill and hammer-drill functions.
### Does it need batteries?
No battery is specified. It is listed as corded electric, so plan to use it near a suitable power outlet.
### What is included?
The listed package contents name the 6.5A corded hammer drill. A separate feature description names the drill only, so confirm the selected listing if you expect additional components.
