Hammers Caliber

For the past 5 years, as they stopped scolding the Chinese power tool. And they took up very harsh criticism of the equipment of domestic production. I often heard a lot of negative remarks about the Russian caliber mark punchers. I personally believe that such judgments are biased and more reminiscent of black PR. This model in terms of price / quality ratio is second only to the best European brands like BOSH. In such a matter as the purchase of a building power tool, the seller’s warranty card is most important.

And buying in the market is always a lottery. You buy, a week of intensive work, and "darling" burned out. And I came across the Caliber EP-950/30, plows even henna. Not the fact that some Makita would have survived such stress. Especially if it is bought at the bazaar or with it. Naturally, there should be a skill of proper application. And of course, it is more careful, in the sense of letting it cool. And it is better not to let it overheat, and not to be too lazy to lubricate.

low price and reliability

weighs a lot

Friends gave a punch Caliber EP-900 / 30M. I think that they were bribed by low cost.
The collector burned out immediately after trying to hang eaves at home. Repaired under warranty. Put on the mezzanine. If you have to work with drywall - I will use it as a screwdriver.

I work as an electrician, at work I have to ditch the walls. This drill is not suitable for such work. I use a more reliable tool. Chinese instrument manufacturers have never been credible.
The puncher Caliber EP-900 / 30M can only be bought for one-time work - hang shelves, or drill a hole in the tile.

Heats up quickly, while there is a pungent smell of plastic. It creates a loud noise during operation.
Even the appearance of a punch says that it is unreliable.

Low cost allows you to buy a punch Caliber EP-900 / 30M for home infrequent use.

Noisy, strong vibration. Often breaks.

When on the eve of the hanging of the drawer-shelves it became clear that our puncher accidentally took away without leaving an address, my neighbor, I could only rush for a new one.I took a puncher Caliber EP-800/30, which I immediately liked about the budget, full-featured, modest size and weight (less than 4 kg). Working qualities strengthened the first impression.

Due to the wide holder, the device fits comfortably in the hand, the mechanisms for fixing and adjusting the speed invariably provide it with stable operation, reinforced insulation and a metal gearbox guarantee excellent power and safety. There are traditionally three modes, this is enough for the current repair. The only thing that upsets is the need to purchase accessories of a certain type.

versatility, mobility (a suitcase is included), the ability to adjust the speed of rotation, a depth gauge for drilling.

fast overheating, switching modes only when the device stops.
