It took six days to remove 20,000 pounds (3000 square feet) of Saltillo tile without a hitch. There were a few times when I sharpened the bits a little more. Two bits could have done the whole job ” (the 2″ tile bits). It’s an amazing machine. The best way to keep your bits cool between grindings is to dip them in cool water. They will quickly get worn down if you do this.
Afterward, I had to change the shape of three ugly Kiva fireplaces that had been cut with a saw because they looked bad. With a point bit and a small 1mm drill, you can drill “It was a piece of cake to do.
Then, I had to change out four vent covers on my foam roof with bigger ones. The six “This is how it worked: The grout chisel went over the galvanized without hurting it, and it was easy to peel back the foam.
In the master bathroom, I had to remove the tiled shower. With 1 “It broke the tile on the wall, and the point chisel was easy to use to break the floor pan free from the slab. This machine makes a lot of hard work a lot less hard.

She saw how easy it was to remove the carpet nail strips with the Bosch tool, so now she is using it to remove all of them. She was afraid to use a $700 tool at first, but she has said many times how important this tool has been during this remodel. We even used it to get the baseboards off. It was so easy.
This Bosch is a very precise “destroyer.” It brings a lot of energy to a small area and lets you use that energy to your advantage. After it has paid for itself many times over, we’ll keep it because it makes digging holes for plants easier in Phoenix, which is very rocky. A few years from now, I’ll have to get rid of even more of the patio tile. It’s a great tool. Indispensable.
Take care of your bits. There is a small amount of the grease that came with the bits that you need to put on the shanks of the bits to keep them from getting stuck in the hammer chuck. Every time you remove one, clean them and only use a pea-sized amount on the next one you use. If you do that, the chuck will stay in great shape and the bits will run smoothly and stay cool.
If I could, I’d give this thing ten stars.
