This tool is great for tile removal, I have used one for about 3 years now and it is still going strong. I actually use to remove tile by hammer and chisel, not no more. This is even better then renting one of those pneumactic tile removers that you hook up to a air compressor. I use this in conjunction with the Bosch concrete grinder and WOW, you would not believe how fast you can get tile up and grind down the thinset. Great product.2 of 3 people found the following review helpful.A great timesaverBy Ismael C. AlvarezI bought the Makita to help in renovating a remuddled kitchen. I wanted to clear the stove/sink wall of poorly installed ceramic tiles which looked daunting if done by hammer and chisel. Much to my surprise, using the Makita, I was done remarkably fast...with a bonus of it being enjoyable. The tool is comfortable to hold and of reasonable weight. In fact I was done before any fatigue set in. The variable speed trigger gave me very exacting control of chisel penetration and minimized wall damage. Eye and ear protection of course is a must. I'm now considering the bathroom. For removing tile it excels.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.This is the bomb!By Leslie NewmanI am a tile contractor and bought this for tile removal as I got tired of removing tiles by hand.I got this unit because it's a lot lighter than a demo hammer and it's perfectly designed to remove tiles.I use this tool alot and so far it hasn't given me any problems. It gets bumped around alot and is still going strong.I have also used this to scale newly poured concrete and it worked like a charm. It's also really good for breaking up concrete. Demo hammers have their place but if you want something light that will get the job done easily, consider this one. It's really great.See all 3 customer reviews...
