Horses for courses.
I have my Dewalt 18v combi for light stuff, a cheap 110v Ryobi SDS that I've had for about 7 years and a Milwaukee core drill I've had for longer, that I use for well... for core drilling.
I used the Milwaukee to put a 4" hole through 2' of black basalt not that long ago.
I can assure you even with a decent core bit it was nothing like a hot knife through butter.
I work on the principle that if I use each drill for what it's designed for then I'll still be using them happily for years.
until the 'labourer factor' or the 'van's 3 flights of stairs + 5 min walk away factor'!
