I run with a lot of the same tools in the states. Love them. Most guys use Milwaukee and Dewalt around here but I find Bosch to be of a higher quality. Great video!
The lack of a palm router is literally the main reason I decided to go full steam in Dewalt's direction when it comes to my cordless tools. Wish Bosch had a greater selection of cordless tools as I own some corded tools and like them very much.
@@viking.designs That and also as Dewalt's offerings in 60v increase, the power and performance is unrivaled currently. Bosch is falling behind in performance as well.
Finally found a channel with good music, editing and bosch 18v tools like mine! its a shame bosch takes so much time to bring out new tools or to rework them to brushless motors like their jigsaws but when they do its worth it
Hey Carlos! Thanks mate. I make all my own music too so I'm glad you dig it. Yeah man, it's Bosch's only downfall imo. Thanks for checking out the channel
@@viking.designs they have old 18v version ... But it has some issues so they banned it or something .... But they releases photos of a new 18g one ... But I think it would take some time to get hands on
I switched to Bosch from the Milwaukee line up a couple of years ago. So far, they have held up really well and have been very consistent. I’m looking to expand my collection once they come out with the new 18v nailers here in the states
One way around your lack of Bosch 18v trimmer is to buy a battery adapter/convertor. You can buy the Makita trimmer and use the adapter to use your Bosch batteries with it.
Wow man. Love the intro music even if it's a bit meta haha.. and what amazing quality video editing. Coming in hot as a newer content producer with great quality. That's nuts. Great job.
Ive changed my main tool set up makita to Bosch. most of time I use angle grider and hammer drill. in my case Bosch is the best choice. definitely Bi turbo and their X lock is the best. but the old non biturbo models are not really.. also Bosch has not many range of power tool line up. End up using several other brands Hikoki and Milwaukee... honestly its very hard to use only one brand set up regardless of brand.
I am a proud owner of bosch power tools : GSR 18V 50, GSB 18V EC, GDS 300 ABR, GDX 18V 200, GBH 18V 26, GOP 18V 28, GWS 12V 75, GLI Variled I stick with bosch because its power tools, even though have lower specs and capabilities compared to other brands last for years and also very durable. Accidentally drop the tool onto the ground? just pick it up and continue with the work. Other brands will either shatter or inoperable after the incident.
Great video thanks for sharing I have many Bosch 18 volt, drill,impact, jigsaw, starlock multi tool, circular, corded colt palm router, disc sander, Bosch RA 1181 router table with Bosch 2.5 HP router and my favorite the BoschGCM12SD miter saw the only small issue i have is with the circular saw I find getting the battery out is slightly awkward other than that I really like my Bosch line up
Hi, I have pretty much the same kit as you! Another thing I think Bosch should release is a AC/DC 18V adapter so we could use mitre/table saws with mains power when available. Regarding nailers Bosch has got one know, but I don't like the flywheel system, so I ended up buying a 16Ga Hikoki (air spring).
100% Eduardo! An AC/DC adaptor would be amazing. The hikoki one looks great on their router Yeah I agree mate. I ended up picking up the Milwaukee guns for the same reason 🤘
They are still behind most other tool manufacturers however I've heard they're doing a massive push to catch up over the next year so expect a lot of new tools 👌
Hey mate. I honestly think nearly everything on the market today is solid. I have had issues with dewalt batteries in the past but I was maybe just unlucky.
It's a shame that Bosh does not have an 18V trimmer/palm router! All competitors have cordless trimmers but Bosch does not. All of my cordless tools are Bosch therefore I do not want to invest Makita or other brands' chargers and batteries. Therefore I use Bosch corded router and wait for the 18V version...
Couldn’t agree more. I ended up picking up a Milwaukee one. Bosch have actually added an 18v trimmer. I’ve seen it online but I don’t think it’s available in Australia just yet.
You are right. Currently, Bosch has an 18V trim router, but it's a green "Home and Garden" model and does not compatible with the Professional 18V GBA or ProCORE batteries. I have also just found the new Bosch GLF 18V-8 PROFESSIONAL trim router on the Bosch Philippines website, but it's coming soon, not released yet. According to a Reddit user, it won't be released by October this year. Anyway, the GLF 18V-8 has the following excellent features and is worth waiting for. • Brushless motor • Variable speed up to 30,000 rpm • Constant speed function for stable cutting • Restart and drop protection • Easy to adjust cutting depth feature with the cog wheel and metal sleeve • 6 mm, 1/4'', 8 mm collet
I owned several bosch biturbo tools oh man i feel like i am driving a beast whenever i pull the trigger the only issue i had experience with is their procore batteries
Maybe choose gsb instead of gsr model. I have tought about it. I do not use much hammer mode because i do have an sds tool for drilling concrete. But if you are in a pinch or drilling through tiles it comes in handy to have hammer mode.
The grinder switch you need to push forward and then push it down to lock it on. Now you can work without holding the switch. I hate the switch but its a safe switch, you dont accidentally activate it.
Yeah I understand that. Just find it can be tricky to slide forward with wet or sweaty hands. It's not a deal breaker, could be a better design though in my opinion.

Thanks Dan. Yeah we're definitely outnumbered. All the boys are constantly using my gear so they must rate it! 😅
If Bosch is on leading edge n licensing tech, their prods speak 4 themselves. They r expensive.
I concur. Use mainly Bosch as well. The need a cordless nailer BAdly!
I changed all my tools to Bosch a few years ago, not one has ever let me down. The bi turbo sds plus is a real beast
Nice one man. That's good to hear. I haven't tried the bi turbo SDS yet!
Never heard someone say that one. Thats a first. Lol.

@@viking.designs Its your music? its very good background music, you could also open a music channel because it slaps !
Haha thank you bro! Used to make beats and produce back in the day 😁
Completely agree about the missing router, for now have to use the makita, still pretty rock solid
Yeah the Makita one is pretty great. I'm actually considering jumping to hikoki or Milwaukee for some gasless nailers and a router options.
Spot on about the router, hopefully we'll see that pop up along with some international options for their router tables soon!
Yeah let's hope so!
@@viking.designs the time has come (finally) as Bosch just released both an 18V palm router and a fixed base router
This video was incredible 🤩
Yeah ... Definitely Bosch 18v need a trimmer ... They are to late at adding tools ... But when they do they will nail it
Thanks mate! Yeah you're spot on!
Speaking of nailing it, a nail gun would be nice also haha
@@viking.designs they have old 18v version ... But it has some issues so they banned it or something .... But they releases photos of a new 18g one ... But I think it would take some time to get hands on
Yeah I have seen some pictures of the new version! Looks really nice. Wonder how long they will make us wait 😅
I agree on the 18volt router 100%!! I’d really like an 18v belt sander also. Great video bro, thanks a bunch!!
Had thought about a belt sander! That would be nice too! Thanks Paul. 🤙

Yeah good point Dan. I have seen people doing that before. Might have to do that
I freaking love bosch tools

Appreciate it mate, I actually made the music too 😁 Thanks for watching 🤙

Yeah Bosch have great grinders and hammer drills. I've also had to pick up some Milwaukee to fill in the gaps of the Bosch line-up.

Yeah Bosch seems promising but they are lacking some items that most brands have such as outdoor tower light, grease gun, and job site fan
They are still behind most other tool manufacturers however I've heard they're doing a massive push to catch up over the next year so expect a lot of new tools 👌
with the router, i have have the 12v, it is great as a trimmer, but im guessing Bosch are going to come up with another blinder for the 18v soon
Yeah I think you're right Gary. Only question is how long will they make us wait 😂
The blower is my favorite LOL
I’m on the Bosch platform would like the 1/4” router also.
I've heard whispers that it's on the way from the Bosch Facebook group however they are notoriously slow with their releases.
Hey. Mate. How do you compare Bosch and Dewalt so far ? Appreciate
Hey mate. I honestly think nearly everything on the market today is solid. I have had issues with dewalt batteries in the past but I was maybe just unlucky.
@@viking.designs thanks. Looking forward to your next episode.
Thanks mate. Not too far off. 🤙
it’s time for Bosch to bring back nail guns
They released a pin gun about 6 months ago, literally the day I went and bought the Milwaukee ones 😆
for a palm router/ trim router i have had to go onto ryobi as there is a battery adapter to allow you to use the 18v batteries on it.
Does the job.
Nice! I'm actually considering picking up some Milwaukee or Hikoki which will also enable me to have the gaselss nail guns too. 🤔

@MFG485 to be honest, it looks almost identical to the Milwaukee trimmer. Still excited to see how it goes
Also the nail gun. Bosch really need to extend their 18v line asap.
I've heard they are working hard to play catch up and are set to release a lot of battery powered tools. Let's hope so
I owned several bosch biturbo tools oh man i feel like i am driving a beast whenever i pull the trigger the only issue i had experience with is their procore batteries
I agree with everything on this video exactly as I would of detailed the kit.
🙏🙏🙏
If u buy the 12v router, then u can get the 12v cross laser 👀
Haha you know what! The 12v plane also looks really nice too 👀😅
On Ya Robert Bosch
Bro your music fucking slaps! Nice video good review!
Ayyy! Thanks legend. Made all the music on this channel myself. 🤙
The new cordless sanders are best in class. Waiting for the new drill driver gsr 18v 1330 in the states I believe it's called gsr 18v 150 elsewhere.
Think I'll be getting my hands on that one in the next few weeks! 🤞
Maybe choose gsb instead of gsr model. I have tought about it. I do not use much hammer mode because i do have an sds tool for drilling concrete. But if you are in a pinch or drilling through tiles it comes in handy to have hammer mode.
@@dragogranic8171 I'd take whichever one is available
Gotta say I have a boschhammer that probably would survive a nuclear blast. This thing has been through the shit and still gets it done.
Nice audio interface
Nice catch. From back when I used to run a recording studio.
Look at Bosch GKF18v8 👌

Yeah I understand that. Just find it can be tricky to slide forward with wet or sweaty hands. It's not a deal breaker, could be a better design though in my opinion.
@@viking.designs I agree but my biggest complaint about the grinders of bosch are that they dont supply a cutting guard with it.
Really? Mine came with the basic blade guard.
@@viking.designs I bought the GWX 19-125 S its the corded grinder but sadly no. Its cheap to get but not every dealer sells the guard.
Ahhh I understand. Yeah that is disappointing! Bosch seem to be big on safety so that surprises me.
I run Bosch pro, got that driver and everyone on site says the same to me 😃😂
Now I just need to stop losing the socket and I'll be good 😆
@@viking.designs 10ml sockets by any chance? 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣 think I should tie it around my neck
Took them long enough to get a new nail gun too
Sure did!
U HAVNT GOT BOSCH #1 TOOL BRUSLESS ORBIT RECIP ZAW🇺🇸⚡️⚡️🗽
Not sure why you're shouting solar man 😆 Where in the U.S are you from?!
Bosch is worth it! Never buy anything red or yellow!
Just need to start releasing tools as quick as Makita and I'll be a happy man 🙏
