I still think that this is same product, because I didn't find BDF452HW model on this site. They have only BDF452H. May be, they don't want to sell two products simultaneously? I don't think so. Do you know where to find email of Makita customer service? I can't find it, I still want to clarify question about this models.
(You'll note that all THREE BDF452 models are listed)
Are there PERFORMANCE differences between the models? Not sure..though I have read some reviews of the 452HW referring the a "professional" (blue) version with more torque (452? 452H?)
One thing I do know that here in Canada, both models are available (452H @ Rona, 452HW @ Home Depot).
As for Makita customer service...sorry, if its not listed on the website, I don't know.
Wrong!

ReplyDeleteIt's quite possible that the only difference is the colour / housing:
