I'll admit that I did not use the included bits for any of the home projects I used the drill for. I only used my own premium masonry bits. I also didn't use it as a regular drill (by switching out of hammer drill mode), so I can't speak to its performance as a regular drill. I can say that when paired with quality masonry bits, it has more than enough power to quickly and cleanly drill 4 of aggregate concrete, bricks, cinderblock, and stones. I did several home projects that needed all that drilled and it managed it like the material wasn't even there. The blow mold case is a very high quality plastic that can survive falling, drops, and kicks without issue. Everything stays put inside, and it has a sealed steel bar for a hinge so it won't fall apart after a few openings and closings. The included bits seem ok, and it's nice to have a selection of bits for wood/plastic, metal, and masonry tasks. I just didn't try them.The only real complaint I have is the handle. Most other removable handles I've used on other drills go on and off MUCH easier. This one is a bit to tight and you do tend to struggle a bit more than is needed. Something I hope that Skill address in a revised model.
