Product Details
The Bosch 11255VSR SDS-plus Bulldog Xtreme 1 In. Rotary Hammer is a versatile, handy tool that features a robust 8.0 Amp motor. From anchoring to large material breaking, it gets the job done right the first time. Engineered in the tradition of legendary Bulldogs, this powerful hammer delivers 2.0 Ft.-Lbs. of impact energy and 0-5,800 no-load BPM, but it weighs just 6.7 Lbs. The multifunction mode selector allows users to easily select among three modes of operation: rotary hammer, rotation only and hammer only. To optimize the chiseling angle, it has Vario-Lock positioning that rotates and locks the chisel in one of 36 different positions. It is Bosch's PRO+GUARD dust system, helping users move toward OSHA Silica Table 1 dust compliance. The hammer is designed with an ergonomic D-handle for comfort. It features a variable-speed reversing trigger for accurate bit starting, and a Bosch-exclusive rotating brush plate, for equal power in forward and reverse. Busy pros will appreciate the tool's HammerHook, which allows the user to hang the tool on the job, and the SDS-plus system provides for tool-free bit changes.

I had to remove roughly 250-300 sq feet of tile from a concrete slab. It took some time, but this tool was perfect for the job.

Nice roto-hammer for the money.
I had to remove some river rocks / concrete around my mailbox for an update in the hardscape. After working for an hour with a digging bar I said enough of this and went to Home Depot and purchased the Bosch 11255VSR. It made fast work breaking out the rocks and concrete. As I was working I notice the tool "loosen up" and the impacts became stronger. The owner's manual said it could take up to 5 hours to break in. Keep in mind this is a light duty tool and should be used as such.

I have tried other Rotary Hammer, but this one is the best because of its performance and users safety for the smooth vibrations avoiding mistreatment of hands and arms of the person using it, but they are effective on the field. Its size and weight are ideal for the use of the demolitions I personally have realized

Had to drive some deep tapcons into the sill of the barn to stabilize a wall that had come loose. This is old crappy 1950's concrete with real rocks in it. The Bosch cut through it like butter. Left a smooth precise hole even when hitting the rocks inside. Very smooth to hold without a lot of vibration in the handle (even though it is not a padded handle) allowing easier handling without fatigue. My only very minor gripe is with the depth gauge which wobbles a tiny bit (again not a big deal, but while the pushbutton lock is nice, it doesn't seem to hold it particularly rigidly)

Worked for exactly one week
This hammer drill seemed to be working fine, right up to the point where the chuck came apart in pieces. Took me a half hour to get the $35 bit out so i can return to the store. Of course, they are out of this item now and i am going to purchase a different brand

It's not powerful enough for me - Asphalt removal
I have high expectation for SDS Plus, but for what I used on asphalt removal, it was definitely NOT powerful enough. I tried 3 different brand new chisel bits and the results were the same - VERY SLOW. Don't get it wrong, this is still a good tool, it should be good for drilling concrete for most home owners and DIY people, but for demolition work definitely this is way under powered. SDS MAX or a real demolition hammer maybe a better choice in my case. I believe this SDS Plus rotary hammer drill is good for light duty stuff like Tiles removal, but absolutely not on concrete or asphalt removal work.

Customer review from homedepot.caAug 7, 2018
Simply Amazing! Cuts through concrete like wood, so quick and smooth
I read all the reviews and chose the Bosch Bulldog Xtreme 8 amp corded variable speec SDS-Plus Rotary Hammer drill. I needed to drill 5” inch holes through concrete to sink 1/2 inch mounting bolts to secure the base mounts of a large gazebo. Using my old power drill, it took 30 plus minutes per hole and the drill bit slip away from the intended hole when it hit rocks. With the Bulldog Xtreme, i cut straight perfect holes, no slippage, no mistakes. You will not believe the accuracy, ease and speed until you use this simply amazing rotary hammer drill, I did create a jig using 1/2 plywood with 4 pre drilled joles to make sure the mounting bracket holes were properly aligned, which allowed me to drill perfectly placed holes.

I just got this drill this past weekend in order to drill out a 50 year old concrete stoop with termites underneath. I needed to drill multiple 1/2" wide holes 10" apart and 18" deep. This drill handled it with ease. I predrilled each hole with a 5/16, 6" deep bit, then used the 18" bit. It took me maybe 20 minutes to drill all the holes. Power was never an issue, and I just let the drill do the work, I didn't push too hard. It takes SDS and SDS Plus bits which are very common. I alsu purchesd a chisel bit to clear out extra concrete from an extension and it's pushed through that with no problem either. Not sure if this is a contractor level tool, but for home use it definitely fits the bill.

I am doing a pit set manufactured home for my son and daughter in law. I had 54 1/2" x 5" holes to drill in the concrete reinforced slab. The first 3 holes took almost 2 hours to drill and the new bits were trash. After purchasing the Bosch Bulldog extreme it took between 12 to 16 seconds per hole. After 51 holes the bit is going strong. Thank you Bosch and Home DePot.
