usually I wait for Dual kit promotion to buy so to have batteries.
After that I will just compare price of solo tools between Malaysia and China.
Makita tool are build strong to survive journey from china to Malaysia.

I never own any Makita tool before. Don’t have battery kit.
To me is a bit pricey

Hi sifus! Looking for some advice for the right tool for a drilling holes into Corian (solid surface countertop).

I'm planning to install an undersink filter with a filtered water faucet (the small kind for drinking water), and I need to drill through countertop because the sink I have is undermount, no surface to put the faucet.

Borrowing a friend's Bosch tools, but he insist need rotary hammer, while I think an hammer drill is sufficient because it's more resin compared to quartz.

What is sifu's opinion? Drill or Rotary Hammer?

Solid surface go for normal dril & screw driver only.
Can decide bosch or whichever cheaper brand, Bosch 18v GSB185-li or 12v 120-Li
Hammer drill like Bosch GBH180-Li good for drilling solid brick wall or RC column.

Impact driver can consider too

Thanks sifus for the tips.

Yes concerned the hammer of a rotary hammer might crack the solid surface (it's a large L shape counter, if crack might get expensive to replace 😭). Will research further.

Normal drill 18v will be good
