The one touch sliding chuck makes changing bits very fast and easy
The sequential impact timing delivers timed hammering action resulting in 50% faster drilling, and we all know that we want to drill a little faster, right?
The built in torque limiting clutch is a huge pro of the Makita HR4002 because if your bit jams you will not break your wrists as the rotary hammer spins out of control

No Variable Speed, although they claim it to be, which is a bit of a downfall
