Makita DHP484RTJ 18V Li-Ion LXT Brushless Combi Drill Complete with 2 x 5.0 Ah Li-Ion Batteries and Charger Supplied in A Makpac Case

Good drill.Very compact and powerful.

Great product 👌

VERY strong brand. I have a vast kit so will always replace with same tools as too expensive to change completely. These are not cheap and prices are constantly increasing so if starting out make your own choice but I would recommend

Wow! What an effing drill! This device is simply the best 18V drill money can buy. If you already have the Makita 18V Li ion system then if your existing drill gives up the ghost then upgrade to this beauty.As a plumber, my day can be spent drilling into mostly either wood, brick or concrete. This drill, with a charged battery and a good drill bit is the Dog's RFB's (round furry bits). I'm not now reaching for the corded sds for pipe clip setting in concrete. In addition, no need to get my corded Makita percussion drill for 25mm auger bits when doing pipe runs through joists. Watch out though, the torque on this little beast is phenomenal. Even in gear setting 2 (fast speed) it will want to rip your hand out of it socket. So I might yet invest in the strangely oversized handle for this thing?My last Makita 18V (BHP 452) had its severe material limitations. So far this drill is out performing that by a long way and as mentioned has restricted the occasions I need to reach for a corded device. I obviously already had the 18V Li ion battery system so this was a natural upgrade. That being said I would not use this for drilling any thing larger than 12 or 13mm holes in brick or block. For two reasons; firstly, as mentioned the torque is so great, without a handle and a clutch mechanism this device would in my opinion be dangerous and secondly, I don't intend to abuse the drill for tasks that are either outside of its design threshold or very close to it. This for any type of electrical device will shorten its life span.Consequently, if it lasts as long as the old BHP 452 I will be able to get at least 5 years regular ( that means every day in my case) use out if it. By that time, according to how BBC Watchdog portray the plumbing industry, I should have urinated in enough cold water storage tanks in peoples lofts, taken 80 hours to fit a flush handle and unblocked a drain charging £8,000. Which should have paid for the device by then.....unless of course I'm not charging enough!If your a trade and use hand drills, this is the one to get. If your a DiYer then still get this and imagine that your a qualified and knowledgeable tradesman equipped with the know-how to do your own bathroom. You won't be. But at least every hole you drill and screw you fit (incorrectly) will give you a semi!

It looks good quality

Excellent little combi drill at a price point way cheaper than Screwfix and others.Nicely balanced even with a 5amp battery attached.Does what it says on the tin. Better than my old DeWalt combi.

The media could not be loaded. The DHP484 is now updated with a steel chuck! Video shows my old (2022) and July 2025 version from Amazon

I have build my entire tool kit on the Makita platform so I have certain expectations!Let me first say that the drill arrived on time, well packaged with no visible signs of any damage.I am very impressed with this little drill. The brushless motor provides ample power and torque. Just to test it out I drilled out a mortise lock for a fire door! I ate through the door without even struggling a little and didn't flatten the battery. Its fairly small in the hand & lightweight but I can tell its very well built. I would think this is definitely fit for professional use, but at a DIY price - Makita Quality!
