First post, so thought I'd try and make it useful - late to the party as usual. I have the BS Quick in this set, I bought it with a small reciprocating saw in a different set. Has been excellent and the angled driver has got me out of a few situations in the past. I realise this is an old thread but just in case anyone else is tempted and needed clarification. A lot of the guys I work with haven't heard of Metabo at all, but they are all surprised when they use the kit - I think they expect it to be a bit nasty (as people often do when they've not heard of things before) - they were the same about my MT55, never heard of it. Oh, and hi.

Welcome aboard. You're never too late for fresh input. Some people are just unable to think for themselves and would rather just go with what ever else is doing. How boring is that?

That is like reading someone's review that starts with "this is the best XX that I have owned". 1) They chose to buy it 2) What else do they own? and have they tried? It is skewed from the onset.

This person signed up to post this. Me thinks he searched Google for "drills", and spammed every site he could to try to get clicks for ad views.

I redirected to a proper review site yesterday. So maybe that site was hacked?

More than likely, I try to keep the robot hordes at bay but every now and then one slips through

NOT SPAM, NOT HACK thanks, Well back to the original review there was a deWalt, makita, some craftsman, a festool. No Metabo, and maybe 2/5 to 3/4 what seems to be the entirety. For a thorough review one needs them all, and some metrics to judge them against. The best cordless drill I have used is the A10M. (The other cordless drill I have used is a 12 year old Bosch). So it is not a complete set of drills, and there are no metrics about what makes it best. Most people love what fits in their hand though.

Hi guys, finally back after some time. Happy to see our MAFELL-community is growing and very active :-) Just wanted to post a few pics, my Metabo 10,8V PowerMaxx BS Quick Pro set got a new home (love this Machine!). Got the PowerMaxx-insert for the Tanos-Systainer (here a Festool, sorry ) from Metabo/Germany for about 6€ + Vat + Shipping). Changed all my mobile-toolboxes to Tanos/festool Systainers, love it, now everything has its place in my car... Perhaps its interesting for some of you... Greetings from southern Germany! Christoph

What else is Mafell doing to the Metabo besides cosmetics and torque settings to warrant my interest & money?
Just bid a job requiring 1,152 3/16” (4.8mm) holes in stucco (24 at a time) and my trusty ‘corded’ baby hammer drill is not suited to the circumstances. A light weight cordless is called for.
Factored in a pro-sumer box store cordless 18v hammer drill into the bid price as a disposable option but it’s also time for me to upgrade my cordless drill anyways (still can’t kill my old Panasonic and it does everything I need except hammer-drill).
Performance tests alone shouldn’t be the deciding factor, build quality often goes a longer way to user satisfaction etc. as does ergonomics etc. So I went out and demo’ed a few of the ‘common’ brands and was shocked at how heavy the 5&6 Amp Hours batts were and how poorly balanced most felt as well as how bad the grips were. Though I suppose with 18650s I can get away with using smaller AmpHour packs for weight.
I’m also used to switching from reverse to forward with the base of my index finger while still holding grip, yet when I tried this with many models it just parked the gears in neutral requiring you to push the slide switch the rest of the way with a pointed finger (other side works fine with thumb of course). That might sound picky but that’s key to changing bits on a keyless chuck faster & easier than using a quick bit holder (when drill-bits are also involved). Might not be the right time to buy.
