I had a larger (5-6kg?) SDS that was excellent and small demolition jobs and would laught at any DIY drilling needs – but did lack finesse. It was a cheap £30 job from Aldi and it lasted years with lots of abuse (25mm dia, 1m long drill bits through walls). When it died I spend £16 for a new armature and some gears posted from Germany and it lived a bit longer. Eventually it completely died and it deserved a Viking funeral for it’s service.
Then I got a smaller SDS (2kg) which was more suitable for putting things back together.
I wouldnt use the latter for the demolition stuff but you could use it to drill lots of holes in the plinth and then break it up with a large hammer.
If you can live with some more manual labour then buy a smaller one that is more useful. If you already have a drill for finer jobs (my cordless Li-ion will do most jobs provided you use a decent drill bit and not a cheap one) then the big SDS is great fun 😀
I always prefer to buy than rent. The exception was a cement mixer as the OH wouldnt let me buy one 🙁
