Start with the materials and jobs, then compare a complete usable kit. A bare tool can look cheaper while leaving a beginner to buy a battery and charger separately. These two established combi drills are starting points for household DIY; a hammer setting does not make every hard-masonry job appropriate, and the right bits and instruction remain separate requirements.

How we choose and describe these picks
These are researched shortlists, not WantThis hands-on tests. The reasons to compare a product are our editorial judgement. We attribute a reviewer’s findings to that publication, label specification-led choices and do not infer an owner consensus from star ratings. A reference to a publisher is not an endorsement of WantThis.
Each offer is a separate dated check for the named model and bundle. Unknown delivery, unavailable stock, membership prices and expired checks stay out of budget results. We do not call a price a saving without comparable price-history evidence.
Before you compare prices
Match tool type and bits to the material; do not choose by voltage alone.
Confirm the exact battery platform before assuming compatibility with tools already owned.
Check for hidden services and follow appropriate instructions before drilling; the guide is not a drilling procedure.
Find a pick for your budget
Budget results use public offers checked within 24 hours, including the stated standard delivery. These are dated checks, not live prices or a search of every shop. Confirm your postcode, stock and final total at checkout.
2 picks to compare
Starter combi kit
BLACK+DECKER BCD700S1K-GB kit
BCD700S1K-GB, one battery, charger and kitbox
A good fit for: Occasional household work with a complete starting kit
Why it makes our shortlist
This is a useful comparison for someone who needs the drill, battery and charger together. The appeal is a clear basic kit for modest jobs, not a promise that one inexpensive drill can handle every wall. Check the intended materials and buy appropriate bits for the actual project.
The trade-off: The included charger and single-battery setup may be inconvenient for long sessions. Demanding masonry needs a more specific tool decision.
Check the package: The manufacturer’s BCD700S1K-GB listing includes one battery, a 400mA charger and kitbox. Check bit contents separately.
A good fit for: DIY users comparing a compact tool within the green Bosch battery system
Why it makes our shortlist
We would compare this when the buyer wants a compact combi and a clearly specified starter package. Its battery-system compatibility can matter if other suitable tools are already owned, but that should be checked rather than assumed from the Bosch name. The complete kit is the price to compare for a new user.
The trade-off: This is the 34Nm UniversalImpact 18V, not the differently specified 18V-60. It is not our recommendation for repeated demanding concrete work.
Check the package: Order 06039D4170: one PBA 18V 1.5Ah battery, AL 1810 CV charger, double screwdriver bit and carrying case.
