I purchased this several years ago and was initially pleased. But successive use has taught me just how cheaply this item is made. I've had to take it apart several times and reassemble it just to get it working again. This item is great the first 2 or 3 times you use it. After that junk.

Having seen them perform on PBS; I just had to have the DVD to continue to watch and enjoy and share with my friends.

The price was great. In fact it was less expensive than Norton offered me as an upgrade as I had the prior version of Norton 360.

You have alternatives ...
3/6/2007
This tool has to be the whole arsenal for you.

If you are like me, and have an occasional demo job to do in order to move a drain, or tear up a bathroom, it's fine.

But this is an expensive thing to have around: it takes up plenty of space, it operates as if it's a real jackhammer (it's big) but it does NOT have close to the breaking power of a pneumatic device, so be forewarned.

As a good alternative, you might try renting a Hilti 905. The Hilti let's you get more "down" on your project.

If you have a basement floor to tear up, or something outside, don't think you have to do everything yourself. Find a guy who is used to breaking concrete and see if you can make an arrangement with him to be a pair of hands and get him in economically, if that's your deal.

If your concrete is an outside job, just bring in a skidsteer or rent a bobcat: this guy isn't about that.

Remember you are likely going to be facing rebar, and this guy doesn't like rebar.

Ultra versatile machine
11/22/2006
I bought the Brute to jack up a bunch of concrete slabs - but it has come in handy for a ton of other uses. It works great for jacking up cement - plows through a 4" slab like nothing. If you get the clay spade attachment, it works great for digging into hard soil. Just don't get too zealous with the digging because you'll soon be so deep into the soil that it's hard to get the machine back out. If you have ground rods to drive, or want to plant a bunch of re-bar deep into the ground, definitely get the ground rod attachment. I can drive an 8' ground rod in thirty seconds with this thing. All in all, I can't find any negatives to this tool - definitely worth the price.

Glad I bought it
5/29/2006
I am a homeowner in S Cal, and we hired a contractor for some backyard improvements. It turned out the guy really didn't know what he was doing. I got estimates of $3,600 to demo and remove his "work" and at that price I thought about doing it myself. Home Depot rents this same hammer for $76 a day or $240 a week, but I really don't like renting tools - I feel pressured to hurry up an get the job done and get the tool back to the store. Plus you have to work your ass off to get the job done in time. Since I bought this hammer, I can go out into the yard and bust concrete whenever I want. It chews through 6" concrete fairly easily - the hammer does most of the work. Even took out my 2' x 2' x 2' solid concrete with rebar foundations for some posts.

It weighs about 60 lbs so it can get a little heavy if your not use to it. I also bought the clay spade for digging out some new foundations. Again, the unit with the spade attached is getting up there in weight, but it sure chews throught the dirt and rock.

Once I am done with my project, I think I can sell it (if I want) for a pretty reasonable price, and recover most of my money - after all, they are considered "rental quality" I have been real impressed with Bosch and will continure to buy their products

Excellent at what it was meant for
4/26/2006
I use t his breaker every day from digging to breaking up old concrete footer and it always gets the job i'v had it for over a year and havent had to service it yet I imagine its getting near that time but it has plenty of power to bust upsmaller portions(less than 2 yards of 3500 psi) concrete its also gtreat for bustin through shale and rock whilk digging. I know the one reviewer said it doesnt have the balls of a pneumatic but a pneumatic will cost you ten grand and you have to be able to get the heavy compressor near the job which can be a pain in the ass. I still use the pnuematic when i have alot of concrete to bust up or if it really hard 6000psi fiber reinforced stuff but for most smaller jobs this has more than enough power and the price ir right. I guess its sick when you say $1450 is cheap but in the demolition business nothing that works well and last is cheap so you learn to appreciate quality tools that allways start and thats was this hammer does
