Comment:
I checked them all prior to making a purchase. The pricewas a bit excessive, but this was a clear choice and the quality is unrivaled. The switch does take a little getting used to, but not a big deal.
Comment:
I purchased this drill for a basement remodel. Will be drilling between studs for wiring, etc. It is a solid drill. I read the reviews about the paddle switch and was a little apprehensive when purchasing without being able to hold it in my hands and try it first. Well, I am happy to say that it feels and works fine. I personally don't see what the problem is with the switch. I have no problem activating it and feel that the safety issue far outweights any undesirable design.

Bosch 1132VSR 3/8" Right-Angle Drill

Comment:
I used this drill for an entire weekend, drilling holes for electrical wires in a large home addition. It performed flawlessly. Most of the holes were 7/8 inch (using a spade type bit), and this drilled handled it fine. The on/off trigger takes some time to get used; you have to pull down then in to operate the switch, but a great safety feature. I have used other right handle drills that didn't have this and I ended up with banged up knuckles. This is a great little drill, with powerful performance, and excellent quality.
Comment:
I also have a Milwaukee close quater drill. This one is a lot more robust in construction. It also has a metal encased gearbox, which should be very druable. The on/off switch could be a little easier to operate, but I think Bosch designed it this way with safety in mind. Overall, a quality product.
Comment:
I already had a Milwaukee 3/8in close quater drill that workes very well. I got this because I wanted it, not needed it. It seems a step up in quality from the Milwaukee, and was 25 bucks more. Worth it. If I had to do it all over again, I would only have the Bosch.
