Makita Demolition Hammer:
I listened to the last guy that reviewed this hammer and ordered one the next day rather than renting one. If I would have just done that years ago I wouldn't be going in for shoulder surgery right now.

I compared this to the bosch and dewalt SDS hammers and couldn't find any info on what thickness concrete these hammers could remove. I took a look at both hammers at homeless depot and the sales people at several stores couldn't answer my question. Neither could... more info
