well, this is EXACTLY my experience (about 15 years ago here in Germany). Sadly, they severely lack in the wetsuit department since at least 2010, but my LIDL "Pegaso" wetsuit set from 2008 survived more than 600 dives and is still in relatively in good shape. On the tool side of things, my PABSW 10.8 A1 battery drill from 2013 (at that time ACTUALLY "made by Einhell", i.e. "Imported from Taiwan / China" by Einhell) still survives to the present day after a whole house renovation. The reason I bought it at that time was that the complete drill set from LIDL cost as much as a second battery for another - at that time battery-wise compatible - Einhell tool I bought some weeks before. Which also survived everything I did with/to it since then. I also own a LIDL MIG welder and a plasma cutter and am reasonably happy with them after some modifications, too. The new tools since at least 2020 are a lot more "quality diverse", but I think that is the case with almost any other non-professional brands, too.
Erbauer have upped their game in the last 2 years. Personally i would put them just in line after the big boys or dewalt , milwaukee, bosch , hikoki , makita and metabo. Ahead of evolution and ryobi in my opinion. I think Titan has some ground to make up but they are catering for the budget market in opposition to parkside and ferrex I think. Just my humble opinion from owning at least one of all these tools over that last 10 years.
I always have my parkside tools on top of my makita tools in the car. Nobody has broken in, and in fact i've left the window down a couple times overnight, nothing taken.
I’ve bought quite a few parkside tools and they are good quality for the price and they are still running well (DIY use). No hesitation in buying them in the future. 👍🏴
I have the very same SDS drill and what a solid performer it is too. I've done everything from digging up gravel and concrete to removing tree stumps with it and it has never missed a beat in five years. It doesn't surprise me that the one in the video was only a broken lead.
Lidl''s Black series of tools (performance branded) gets you 5 year warranty, worst case if they can't fix your tool is, they will give you a new one or return the money. Better warranty than most professional brands tbh.
DIY'ers will only use a powertool occasionally. I can (and usually do) wear DeWalt/Milwaukee tools out, dead in about two years. I reckon a Parklife would be dead within a month of serious use - even their better ones.
@@kevinchamberlain7928 It's meant for DIY use, but people will still try to redo entire house in a month and just abuse it regardless of brand. A typical example is people using a undersized drill to run a glue/plaster/paint mixer attachment instead of using a dedicated tool for that. Or using a vibrating hammer drill for drilling holes into concrete which should be done with a sds impact hammer drill. I do wonder how you kill a dewalt/milwaukee within 2 years - do you wear out bearings or gears?
As a farmer I own a bunch of parkside tools and let me tell you I got my money's worth out of any one of them. Have the cordless angle grinder, a jigsaw, regular cordless drill and impact driver and 2 nut guns -one is completely falling apart, but still works (doesn't hammer very much, since the anvil and steel bush are very worn and wobbly). But they keep on working. The batteries last surprisingly well. Some were bought in 2017 and are still kicking solid. If you buy them for trade, you will only get 1 year warranty. (never had to return any of my tools, so that's saying something about longevity as well)
I’ve had same experience they’re a decent tool. I’m not pro but do a lot of projects doing up my house, cars etc. 20V cordless tools really good. I’ve a corded hammer drill that’s had quite a few hot suppers over 5 or 6 yrs. a lot in kango mode and still flying it. Only issue I’ve had is cordless drill driver hammer action is woeful.
I had the exact opposite experience with parkshit toys. There was not a single X20V toy that lasted the warranty period, with one in particular having to be returned multiple times, the others weren't just because I don't use them. Slowly switching to Einhell. Not that much more expensive and far, FAR better.
@@zefautino good glad you found something that’s better for you, I don’t find einhell much better. But most importantly relax it’s just tools don’t take it personal 😂
I once heard somewhere that in Germany there's actually a legal regulation that products sold as "tools" have to comply with certain standards of quality. How true this is, and whether there's any real difference to other European countries I don't know. One of the things I find most remarkable about the Parkside stuff is it's not just run of the mill knockoffs like you would expect but they actually have some fairly unique and well designed products as well as occasional specialist things like die grinders and Swedish pipe wrenches that you would never expect to find in a high street tool store, let alone your local supermarket
At least 10 years ago I bought an Orange body 1050w Parkside SDS mains drill for one task. I still have it and it works very well. I have bought high quality tools as a long term choice. Often because they just feel so nice to use.
The Parkside tools have been really popular here in Germany, loads of people buy them. Id say for a cheap tool brand they are the best you can buy honestly at the price point they sell these machines at you cant find anything better and at a higher price you might aswell just get the real deal aka a Bosch or Makita. At lest I have never really seen cheap tools as good as the Parkside tools. BUT I would NOT buy their cordless tools for sake of battery replacements and repairability. You have a higher chance getting more hours out of a corded machine and fixing it when it breaks. Brushes wear out, you can make something fit the brushholders. Switch can probably be replaced too by making a Bosch or Makita switch fit or buying the right switch off Aliexpress. Also I cant imagine their batteries are assembled with very high quality cells so I expect them to last half as long as a quality tool battery. Cant imagine Parkside using the same battery system for 10+ years and supporting legacy batteries. I have Bosch batteries from 2014 and they are still good, cant imagine a Parkside battery lasting more than ~5 years. Better off buying your most used tool from Makita with two batteries and expanding your tools by buying Mellif for example.
The case looks like a Metabo, the inner pieces also like metabo and Bosch… probably they get build in the same factoria like the other two in Shenzhen, Tschoina. But nothing wrong with em. Looking forward for you to get us some of the cordless toys, if you want.
Parkside are not a bad make Dean and i think they know how to play the money game buy pumping out these tools plus they update them as well so when you do break your model you wont be buying the same one, good show as always Dean.
Love the channel Dean. If you ever get the time, can you through the different greases used on the power tools? Thank you for the time and effort you put in to get these videos out..
I do the same job as you. I see that this drill has been refurbished and runs very well. Your skills are very professional. The end result is amazing. Well done. Thanks a lot. Thank you teacher❤❤❤
I wonder if you'd say the same things about new parkside tools. They're not getting much more expensive, and the reliability seems to be on a downward slope. Saws that can't hold an angle, grinders that stall out and that have push button electronic switches, impacts with random max torque depending on the unit, etc. I'm a fan but it seems their QC and engineering are very lean, to the detriment of producing products that last more than a year.
I have been using one of these in an above-average DIY capacity for over 13 years - probably an earlier model. It too had an erratic contact which I traced to close to the drill body. It was caused because the blow case, which is different from yours, is too small and required that the cable be bent very tightly, eventually causing a fracture in the cable. The clips on the case are too weak and need reinforcing. When the case is the only reason for complaint then the tool must be worth having.
Good video, thanks. I have one of these Parkside SDS drills. I noticed lately that I need to push it fairly hard to get the hammer to work. I'm guessing it might be dust blocking up the SDS mechanism but I'm not sure. Do you know if it is easy to open it up to clean and re-grease? It is less than a year old so should be still under warranty.
i think the leads in the brush block got reversed as when you flip the directional toggle switch the chuck runs the opposite direction. Unless it is like that from the factory which is strange. My Bosch works like i mentioned. Your videos are great. Thanks for sharing the knowledge
@@Elektrotechniker Yeah i know that. But given that for such a tool, i mostly use the hammer drilling function to hang shelves or light fittings occassionaly in brick or concrete, I'm more interested in his overall opinion of the build quality.
I have found parkside tools to be a mixed bag. Some are just fine some are just crap, it seems to depend on the manufacturer, so far all tools made by grizzly have been fine .
I hadn't really thought about this before (hadn't needed to) but when the brush holder rotates to the low-speed position does it pick up on contacts supplying a lower voltage?
Good tip on the chasers Dean, I didn't know they did them and I need one to do my own house in the next couple of months. Not a tool that's worth me buying from a good make as I don't do a lot of house bashing.
Lidl is a curse lol I went in for some eggs and bread I came out with some parkside screwdriver bits a drill set 2 fishing reels and a parkside drill my missus was not happy because I forgot the bread and eggs lol 😂
As a diy'er I used a parkside cordless drill 20v for mixing every batch of tile adhesive, every joist hole for pipes, every screw and drill hole in anything from doors to door frames and kitchen assembly to IKEA furniture. Even mixed concrete while waiting on the proper mixer to arrive. She sh*t the bed whilst driving 5*100 screws into 4*2 timbers for the shed. The switch melted, i whacked her and she kept going eventually failing with an almighty Guinness fart, smoke and she was no more. Drove back to shop got another one for €49. Have 5 batteries now. They're not as comfy as a DeWalt and lacks the power compared to most. However as an all rounder they work well for the money and if someone nicks it i wont worry compared to say a Makita being lifted
Nice price for the quality. I think most of the tools are made in Germany. I was told on site a while ago parkside manufacturing has something to do with the bosch group I could be wrong 👍
@@jkd7799Yann I've got a Metabo vari-speed grinder. One of the cheaper models even so it's made in Nürtingen in Germany. so was my Metabo SSD drill. In fact I don't think I have anything made in China. Facom ratchets from Taiwan, Stahlwille wrenches from Germany, screwdrivers from PB Swiss, Hammers from Gedore in Germany and Thor made in England, axe from Sweden, blades and saws from Japan, folding knife made in US, hydraulic car jack made in Denmark etc.etc.
just from a curiousity perspective why don't you just cut and strip the old flex back instead of replacing the whole thing? is it from a time perspective of just Idk

it is good stuff for the price, plus the warranty they give you makes it even better. Its not pro, but i see a lot of professionals using them and tryin to get them fixed.
Hello Dean , you are my favourite channel on TH-cam. I’ve only just subscribe because I’m useless with phones . I’ve wanted to comment so many times but have been unable . I am a tool addict , power tools , hand tools anything . I watch you strip Makita stuff and repair them and I’m dying to have a go . I go to bootsales every week and look at all these drills , drivers etc . Some battered , some like new . Ive never bought any for obvious reasons but I’d like to buy one as an experiment, to put what I’ve learnt from you into practice . I have a multi tester but don’t really know how to use it . I’m quite handy as I work part time in maintenance in a care home , I’m 70 by the way . I do electrical work changing light fittings, sockets , extractor fans but that’s just changing like for like . Do the parts cost a lot ? What would you reccomend I have a go at mostly in the bootsales it’s Dewalt and Makita . You have a great channel , I watch you for hours. Best wishes Gordon
If you visit your local council tip and ask for an old drill or two, they will usually just give them to you for free as long as you ain't making a business out of it.
Lidl have their own 'brands' BUT they don't actually design, set up a factory and make the stuff. This drill will have been made by a big name company - if it looks like Akita it quite probably is Akita!
yeah...good ole Lidl and their Parkside range. Such good value but I killed my combi gearbox by asking too much off it driving M8 coach screws on a daily basis motoring garage doors. Next stop DeWalt.
had same drill lasted years of knocking holes in wall for back box .dropped it of top of ladders nothing broke .the thing that destroyed it was 5"" bore hole in tough brick ,it does not have clutch .£50 will buy again better then worrying about having £300 drill nicked out your van
Parkside love to copy Bosch. They tried to copy their drill press, which I actually own (Bosch one, not Chinesium Parkside). It struggled drilling into the wood.
Parkside is a brand owned by Lidl. They slap it on tools sourced from various subcontractors. The Parkside tools marked as manufactured by "Grizzly Tools" seem to be mostly Einhell (who are also sourcing many of their tools from Chinese OEMs), and many of the better regarded tools are marked as made by Kompernass. The ones where the label doesn't mention either Grizzly or Kompernass are probably directly from some other Chinese OEM.
But the milwaukee hi impact I now not your favourite m18 lot of money but its unbelievable you put a bar on a wheel nut stand on it nothing put that gun on it and wow its unbelievable
Einhell is the parent company of Parkside, German of course. However, Draper is still Completely British owned. They have become distributors for a few small German outfits. But as we know, they're all made in China/Vietnam/Taiwan. I'm guessing that it's the quality control that's the main difference between the end products. Also luck of the draw!
Yes, that appears to be correct, althouugh only one way i.e. Draper to Parkside but not the opposite way unless a modification is made.@@noelcahill6707
@@bayadere8308 To my modest knowledge as a German owning Parkside, Einhell, Scheppach, Güde and some other brands hobbyist level power tools (and living somewhat near the german LIDL subsidiary (?) "Grizzly Tools" company near Aschaffenburg), LIDL stopped rebranding Einhell tools at least 10 years ago and started importing their tool range from exactly the same chinese or taiwanese companies all other brands I mentioned above already did 5-10 years earlier, thus cutting out the middle man and saving costs. Here in Germany and as a non-professional, in most cases you have the "choice" to get essentially the same tool with a little different shell design (and pricetag) from all of the above "manufacturers", which in reality are only China-importers with different levels of customer support. Alternatively, you buy Makita (somewhat reasonably priced new) or Festool second hand (sometimes surprisingly cheap from industry auctions). Alternatively, sometimes you can get Bosch blue or Metabo corded tools for a reasonable price. Battery-/pricewise, the Parkside X20V stuff is REALLY worth its money, and there are a LOT of adapters for most of the other relevant brands out there if you have a 3D Printer (or know someone who has one). I had no problems repowering an old DeWalt 14.4V NiCad Impact with a X20V-Battery adapter from Thingiverse for a friend some months ago, and it still survives "farm use" until today....
The same firm that makes Bosches DIY range makes Parkside drills etc, check the manufacturer's German address and cross-check it with Boshe's address for returning damaged equipment, same address, I've had a couple of Parkside things, a great Grinder (got stolen) and a cordless drill, the battery blew up while charging but there was a reason for that happening that had nothing to do with the drill, dodgy wiring in a flat I was renting that the overload circuit on the ring main was not wired up so the overload cutout didn't work and the wattage was double the electrical regs recommended, the landlord did all his own DIY and would listen to no one, he knew everything he told me one day, wow some guy, the oracle of Northumberland,

Hello Dean , you are my favourite channel on TH-cam. I’ve only just subscribe because I’m useless with phones . I’ve wanted to comment so many times but have been unable .
I am a tool addict , power tools , hand tools anything . I watch you strip Makita stuff and repair them and I’m dying to have a go . I go to bootsales every week and look at all these drills , drivers etc . Some battered , some like new . Ive never bought any for obvious reasons but I’d like to buy one as an experiment, to put what I’ve learnt from you into practice . I have a multi tester but don’t really know how to use it . I’m quite handy as I work part time in maintenance in a care home , I’m 70 by the way .
I do electrical work changing light fittings, sockets , extractor fans but that’s just changing like for like .
Do the parts cost a lot ? What would you reccomend I have a go at mostly in the bootsales it’s Dewalt and Makita . You have a great channel , I watch you for hours. Best wishes
Gordon
If you visit your local council tip and ask for an old drill or two, they will usually just give them to you for free as long as you ain't making a business out of it.
Arnold Schwarzenegger do ads for these
Parkside is a German company, and German power tool companies tend to do a decent standard when it comes to tools, even budget tools.
Thank you Sir
So Parkside better than Milwaukee?
I assume the margins on those machines are really low, so you're basically paying the manufacturing price. Thus the high quality for the little price.
good job
Where’s the Makita disassembler has it been retired?
I was hopping to see h0w to disassemble the selector mechanism
Parkside tools aren't bad for the price 😁 and I do believe they are manufactured by Einhell same as ozito....
I repaired a parkside angle grinder and the stator winding last tour was between the stator and armature 😂 the armature just ground it this wire.
The one good thing about Parkside tools is no one is going to rob them 👍
Oh yes they do.
@@Biffo1262 really, Jesus nothing safe , didn't think they bother
Iv just seen a advert with arnie, advertising this brand
I believe they are made by einhell.
Are they made in Germany or is that just marketing?
Thought you might have cleaned it.
The Wiha screwdriver set costs as much as a drill.
I bought one of these machines just to knock the plaster off my internal walls it cost me €49 euro...did the job OK.....Tom
👍👍
Not tee bag eh! You will developing a Canadian accent next 😁
I love it that people get the reference 👍
@@deandohertygreaser sure do. Thanks for the videos learning a lot 👍🏻.
Lidl have their own 'brands' BUT they don't actually design, set up a factory and make the stuff. This drill will have been made by a big name company - if it looks like Akita it quite probably is Akita!
yeah...good ole Lidl and their Parkside range. Such good value but I killed my combi gearbox by asking too much off it driving M8 coach screws on a daily basis motoring garage doors. Next stop DeWalt.
Made by Einhell
had same drill lasted years of knocking holes in wall for back box .dropped it of top of ladders nothing broke .the thing that destroyed it was 5"" bore hole in tough brick ,it does not have clutch .£50 will buy again better then worrying about having £300 drill nicked out your van
See what they are like inside😂😂😂, exactly what would do myself
Ha ha ha, I wanted to ask you for your opinion about Parkside. I treat them as one job throw away.
Parkside & Einhell tools used t be made in the same Bosch factories a few years ago
Nope
Parkside love to copy Bosch. They tried to copy their drill press, which I actually own (Bosch one, not Chinesium Parkside). It struggled drilling into the wood.
Did buy a Parkside impact gun £60 and it wouldn't take the skin off a rice pudding
Parkside is owned by Einhell. The drill you've opened up was £19:99 two years ago.
bullshit... just fantasy..
Parkside is a brand owned by Lidl. They slap it on tools sourced from various subcontractors. The Parkside tools marked as manufactured by "Grizzly Tools" seem to be mostly Einhell (who are also sourcing many of their tools from Chinese OEMs), and many of the better regarded tools are marked as made by Kompernass. The ones where the label doesn't mention either Grizzly or Kompernass are probably directly from some other Chinese OEM.
Easy fix
Ziptie cabel to handle 😂
Nothing I ever bought from Lidl or Aldi turned out to be junk.
Nothing wrong with Parkside.........
That one appears to have had a hard life.
But the milwaukee hi impact I now not your favourite m18 lot of money but its unbelievable you put a bar on a wheel nut stand on it nothing put that gun on it and wow its unbelievable
I suppose you understand what your on about 😮
I belive that Parkside tools are actually made by Einhell
Anyone remember “Elu” power tools.
I had one of those and managed to kill it within 2 weeks using it. You get what you pay for.
the switch is dodgy on many parkside tools..ans they dont have that finesse ..
Yea, the quality of flex has gotten crappy & expensive to replace. BootsOwen sent me over to sub.
I wanted a flex grinder since they use bosch batteries. Are they bad now?
Same company that make draper make parkside
My fact for the day!
Einhell is the parent company of Parkside, German of course. However, Draper is still Completely British owned. They have become distributors for a few small German outfits.
But as we know, they're all made in China/Vietnam/Taiwan. I'm guessing that it's the quality control that's the main difference between the end products. Also luck of the draw!
@@bayadere8308 the draper batteries will power the parkside tools
Yes, that appears to be correct, althouugh only one way i.e. Draper to Parkside but not the opposite way unless a modification is made.@@noelcahill6707
@@bayadere8308 To my modest knowledge as a German owning Parkside, Einhell, Scheppach, Güde and some other brands hobbyist level power tools (and living somewhat near the german LIDL subsidiary (?) "Grizzly Tools" company near Aschaffenburg), LIDL stopped rebranding Einhell tools at least 10 years ago and started importing their tool range from exactly the same chinese or taiwanese companies all other brands I mentioned above already did 5-10 years earlier, thus cutting out the middle man and saving costs.
Here in Germany and as a non-professional, in most cases you have the "choice" to get essentially the same tool with a little different shell design (and pricetag) from all of the above "manufacturers", which in reality are only China-importers with different levels of customer support.
Alternatively, you buy Makita (somewhat reasonably priced new) or Festool second hand (sometimes surprisingly cheap from industry auctions). Alternatively, sometimes you can get Bosch blue or Metabo corded tools for a reasonable price.
Battery-/pricewise, the Parkside X20V stuff is REALLY worth its money, and there are a LOT of adapters for most of the other relevant brands out there if you have a 3D Printer (or know someone who has one). I had no problems repowering an old DeWalt 14.4V NiCad Impact with a X20V-Battery adapter from Thingiverse for a friend some months ago, and it still survives "farm use" until today....
On a job years a parkside grinder armature caught on fire while I was using it,not my grinder, biggest pile of #£_& I ever used.
That SDS dill was £19.99 lmao
The same firm that makes Bosches DIY range makes Parkside drills etc, check the manufacturer's German address and cross-check it with Boshe's address for returning damaged equipment, same address, I've had a couple of Parkside things, a great Grinder (got stolen) and a cordless drill, the battery blew up while charging but there was a reason for that happening that had nothing to do with the drill, dodgy wiring in a flat I was renting that the overload circuit on the ring main was not wired up so the overload cutout didn't work and the wattage was double the electrical regs recommended, the landlord did all his own DIY and would listen to no one, he knew everything he told me one day, wow some guy, the oracle of Northumberland,
Their batteries are crap and they keep changing the design of them so after a couple of years you can't find a replacement for a lot of them.
Utter nonsense. It makes me wonder why a person would come out with such a patently stupid comment.
einhell>>>parkside
This piece of crap has broken 3 times, and I've used it like 15 times together.... Not happy with this hammer drill at all
