Was on the prowl for a small Demolition Hammer and came across this deal for the Full Boar FBDH-1012 Demolition Hammer on TKD's website for $169.15 which includes free delivery.
Bunnings sells it for $199 at the moment so if you're quick, you can pick it up for $152.15 with price beat. I picked one up from the Padstow store yesterday evening, there were about 5 left at around 8PM last night.

Good luck and enjoy while you can.
Do Bunnings price beat TKD? TKD specifically won't price beat Bunnings.
Officially no, occasionally yes. Part of the same company but depends which store assistant you ask.
just managed to pick one up from Bunnings without any issue
Can't comment on this Full Boar product, but I did a demo of a bathroom (that had multiple layers of tiles and concrete) with the 1500W Ryobi SDS+ Rotary Hammer and thought it was a tremendous bit of kit for the price (RRP $179): https://www.bunnings.com.au/ryobi-1500w-sds-rotary-hammer-dr…
Detroit 1500W is half price — $99 at Total Tools at the moment:

Lighter and sds+ not sds max but has more power. Id probably go the detroit unless i was only going to use it to break up a slab or similar. The detroit can be used as a drill and hammer only. Looks like the one in the deal is hammer only, no drill.
I have the 1050w sds+ ryobi and its more than enough for pretty much anything.
Edit: i'd probably just get the ozito for the longer warranty https://www.bunnings.com.au/ozito-1500w-5j-rotary-hammer-dri…
Grabbed one. thanks!
They have some good prices on SDS drill bits too
As a newbie to this type of tool - what are the differences to look for between the Ryobi - Full Boar - Detroit expecially in terms of brand name/reliability, 1500W V10150W and 7kg V 5 kg specs? Which is the better value buy of the three? Ta
What are you wanting to do with it?
Destroy stuff or drill into concrete/ brick?
The most important number to look at is the energy per impact. e.g. Bunnings says this is 12 joules.
(equivalent to dropping 1kg x 1.2m)
Cheaper rotary hammer drills might provide 5 joules.
If they don't say, it is probably crap. Or the seller has no clue. Ignore the "1500W" power numbers.
Detroit is 5.5J and Ryobi is only 5J. So Full Boar is the best out of three?
I bought the big Ozito SDS + so I didn't need to buy new bits and was very pleased with the power of it. This looks like good gear if you don't have bits already though
Demo’d two fully tiled bathrooms and a tiled kitchen floor with this. Didn’t skip a beat. Thoroughly recommended for the price! Just be prepared for some sore muscles!
