The Milwaukee 1-1/2-Inch SDS-max Rotary Hammer delivers outstanding drilling performance in a lightweight package. The design of the rotary hammer features Milwaukee's vibration isolation system that greatly reduces operator fatigue by absorbing the hammering action with floating handles. A soft-shift stop rotation knob permits the operator to smoothly change from hammer/rotation mode to the hammer-only mode. The included 11 Amp motor combined with an electronic feedback control circuit allows the 6-inch thin-wall Core Bit to be driven through 5000-PSI concrete without bogging down. There's also an on/off switch coupled with a speed dial so that the speed and blow energy can be correctly matched to the application or accessory. The bit locking system features one-handed click-in bit insertion.
Other features include a Quik-Lok cord that allows for fast twist-off/twist-on cord replacement, and an included pre-set clutch protects against sudden motor overloads. There's also a convenient service reminder light that indicates when the carbon brushes will soon need to be replaced. This versatile tool can be used for drilling up to 1-1/2-inch holes in concrete with SDS-max Bits, larger holes in concrete with Core Bits or the compatible LHS spline drive system, or used for general chipping, chiseling, and demolition.
What's in the Box 1-1/2-Inch SDS-max Rotary Hammer, depth gauge, side handle, carrying case, and a 5-piece bit set.

Only thing I have any reservations about is the "Service" disable feature that can immobilize the drill until reset at the repair center. Sounds like it's going to cost me money... What... more info
bosch -vs-milwaukee:
I could find no reviews on the miwaukee 1-1/2 #5315 roto hammer so I was at a face off beteen the bosch 11241evs and 5315 milwaukee. Everyone in the business knows that bosch has made the industry standard in rotory hammers for years, but Milwaukee has recently released this line of rotary hammers in attempt to catch bosch.
I have used the 11241evs as a rental on a few ocasions and it is awesome. I took the chance on the milwaukee because of a five year history of using their tools with... more info
