I got that 18v drill two years ago, still serves me well. Good amount of torque in it and it came with a spare battery, Battery life is fairly decent too.

Just bought a 20v/2A Lithium Hammer drill for €20 in the Lidl Sale. It also included SDS bits. Just used it to hang the cassette hose I bought for €25.

12 V one you outlined is not impact - not great for masonry, you need 12v model that has GSB such as

However GSB impact is slightly bigger, so maybe GSR is ok for compact reasons

the 18V green one DIY quality, but thats a great price , still a great drill with impact. More duration and power than the 12V one... ALSO A GREAT SELECTION OF compatible tools for garden as well, where as 12v one does not have that.

I choose the 12V one myself, really tough drill and carry it in your coat pocket

Parkside tools are pretty good - well suited for heavy DIY use. I even know a tradesman who uses some of their tools, because of their price point. Sure they wear out sooner, but cheap to replace...

I did fairly heavy work with their pruning chainsaw, during the summer. It was far better than I expected. I have a garden shredder that has worn out three sets of reversible blades, that is still going strong.

I'm not knocking aldi/lidl tools I'm just saying Bosch green isn't any better for 3x the price. I bought an Aldi impact driver to put down decking in the summer, two straight days and it was an animal of a thing.
