Hi, I am thinking to buy tool for normal use like screw on self assemble cabinets, or making a hole for plastic plug for surface like tiles, walls. Any suggestion? Maybe Bosch for starter

If you're not drilling in concrete wall, any cordless drill also more than enough for furniture (especially Ikea ones).

If you need to drill tiles I'd say just get 18V GSB180Li, the Bosch 18V stuff is cheap in MY (solo tool-wise) in comparison to the M&M's. Extremely hard tiles are also hard on the battery.

If brickwall (red clay/sand) a GSB180Li or GSB120Li will work-lah. About 1 min per hole.

If you are staying high rise with concrete wall u will need a rotary hammer, either a cheap Daewoo for <20 holes corded below RM200 - or a cordless GBH180Li if you actually do this as cari makan tool simply because its lighter and less tiring for all day usage; plus not all sites have ready power source.
Rotary hammer does wallplug holes in seconds. Not annoying. What's annoying is people trying to use a so called "hammer drill" icon to do concrete drilling for hours (it can take 10-20 min per hole with the wrong tool).

Search in sopee got shows some of model, gsb180Li, gsb18v-50, gsr18v-50. What’s the difference? Price almost same
