- We Ranked Every DRILL/DRIVER From Beginner LVL To Expert LVL (What Level Are You?) In this video we rank some of the best 20V and 18V Hammer Drill/Drivers in the world and some of the not so best Drill/Drivers in the world, which level does your favorite tool brand come in at? We broke down the list of Drill/Drivers into 4 different categories which are, Single Use/D.I.Y. , Apprentice Style Tools, Professional Style Drills, and Expert quality drill/drivers. What we factored in our rankings was Price, Durability/Build Quality, and which features were included on the drills such as a hammer mode or not. What category did your favorite tool brand drill/driver fall into? Let us know in the comments section below, also let us know your list down below too! Thank you for watching.

I love how he baited everyone by putting Milwaukee as beginner in the thumbnail...
I know right
As close to click bait as you can get with a thumbnail 🙄
Same, I was thinking how can my favorite cordless tool brand be on the bottom!?
I paused the video and went straight to the comments to see if that was real, considering I just bought myself one
@@dodge20071 lmao thumbs down guy!! Now I know what to do when I see people bash Milwaukee!!! Best part of this video was this comment.
As a Milwaukee tools owner, I never clicked on a video so fast seeing Milwaukee in beginner lol.
I got suckered also! Don’t be mad, be proud lol
Right !! 🤣🤣 He almost got me
Me too lol
Same i was so happy to see it in expert
Same no joke I only use Milwaukee. But I love the dewalt compound sliding miter
I retired from a small fire truck builder. The larger one I worked for used mainly air tools. This one, as it grew, preferred Dewalt. I only occasionally worked in the shop when they had highly technical problems or wiring systems. Bought a Milwaukee rechargeable drill at a pawn shop to use when I went into the shop to work so I wouldn't have to constantly search for a tool. It was compact and the price was right. While helping them I often would grab that little drill to use and so would they. When I retired, the shop was 100 percent Milwaukee. In the past I had been the one to repair broken tools and had boxes of worn out Dewalts by the bench. Usually parts would no longer be available for them and they were obsolete. As the guys switched to Milwaukee I was no longer repairing hand tools, just maintaining the press brake, shear, iron worker etc. and wiring complex projects. By the time I retired, even the tool boxes were Milwaukee brand. I smile every I pick up that drill.
I watched this happen at the company I work for, save for the tool boxes.
Im a steel roofer and I put screws in all day long. Ive always had a ryobi impact to do the job. From memory my last old impact gun fell from roofs, fell from buildings, and still worked after that. I use to enjoy screwing off the roofs as I knew the drill was very capable and the batteries were very sufficient. Ive never worried about the tools too much as they are affordable and durable as well. Ive just upgraded to brushless drills so I look foward to making my investments pay themselves off
Our roofers always used Ryobi becsuse they were cheap but they didn't like the rain and the chargers didn't like being knocked around in the vans. Also the chuck bearings flogged out so they gradually changed to Milwaukee but these are so expensive. A 12 AH battery is $490.00. You can get two car batteries for that price. I have used Hitachi for years and then they changed to Hikoki and went brushless (Metabo in US). I find my rattler excellent but wish the bit holder collet was a 'push to attach' fitting like Milwaukee. We use the 'Snappy' drill bit holders and these are often lost or twisted by overtightening. $25.00 for a new one and our guys have lots of spares with twists, broken drill bits jammed inside or missing screw caps. I find DeWalt noisy and harsh. Makita would be my next choice, the chippies seem to love them...
Who else came here to to roast him for putting Milwaukee as a “Beginner” in the thumbnail?
Yep
Me! 🙋♂️
we got baited!
Me
😭
As a Milwaukee owner i would like to say that Ryobi brushless kits are pretty good. One of my old partners used nothing but and swore by them and he was 30 plus years in the trade.
Another bonus to Ryobi is that no one wants to steal them 🤣
The real plus to Ryobi is that they are cheap and offer more tools on the 1+ platform than any other platform does. On top of what you’d expect they have lawn and garden tools, cleaning tools, vacuums, chainsaws, etc. if you think of a tool, Ryobi probably has an 18v version available.
@@Dfm253 that’s is very true. They even make a thermal camera that hooks up to your phone and a whole bunch of other cool specialty tools
Great selling point.
Yeah bro ryobi honestly isn’t bad , there skill saw and mitre saw are really good
Actually HyperTough is the best drill money can buy 🤣
I have the Milwaukee drill/driver and impact driver set, probably second gen, a few years old. Did a lot of research before buying, and it has never disappointed. Amazes me with every DIY job.
23 year electrician here. I’ve used all different brands of tools over the years. I’m Milwaukee all the way now. I use the M18 brushless tools. Drill driver , impact driver , saws all , and the multi tool is bad ass. Also have the Milwaukee skill saw. I have 3 - 5 amp hour batteries and 1 - 6 amp hour battery. 2 chargers. Also the pack out system is awesome. I do also have the dewalt 12 volt brushless impact driver and drill driver. I use the dewalt impact to install devices and do lighter work. I’m actually pretty impressed with that little dewalt. I haven’t even used to drill driver yet. It’s the kit that comes with the drill driver and impact driver with a charger and 2 batteries and a bag. But yes Milwaukee is the best in my opinion.
Funny, I actually accidentally ordered the 12v impact driver from Lowe's online. I want paying attention that it was actually 12v - it was such a good price. Anyways I figured what the hell, I'll keep it and try it out. I use it for basically everything. Concrete guy for 30 years. Plenty of power and those little batteries somehow really last a long time. I'm def a 12v believer now.
@@dunesbra that’s awesome. And yeah that’s a great point that you mentioned those little batteries last an unusually long time between charges 👍
Nobody cares
@@dunesbraNo you didn’t Lowe’s doesn’t carry Milwaukee tools
@@nyxnaux4737 It's a Dewalt. I guess I didn't point that out.
I see what ya did there. Labeling Milwaukee as a beginner and the wifes favorite green as pro, just to piss us off enough to click on the video. Well played kid
What are you talking about!? He labelled the Milwaukee the top!
@@terrymorgan7585 I'm talking about the thumbnail pic that baited us in to watching it... The video thumbnail says "beginner" be more observant buddy lol
I was like wait I got to see this mistake on the thumbnail hahaha 😂
I use only Milwaukee and DeWalt.
My Milwaukee cordless impact is a beast at 1400 ft. lbs.
@@MrMichaelmager absolutely. Impact driver, power drill and hammer drill.. All Miwaulkee. 12V at that! Theyve never let me down.
Milwaukee fans were about to literally END you my guy hahahaha! The mob was ready and the pitchforks were getting sharpened lmaooo
I was searching for a Milwaukee pitchfork and a Milwaukee torch until I saw the end, MuHahaha!!
@@raddtadd22 lmaoooo see what I mean!😂😂😂😂😂
Damn straight, I came in pissed as hell at the thumbnail 🤣
They're all made in China. Just get the one you like.
Sharpened with Milwaukee tools, no less.
I 100% agree with this list!! I have used milwaukee exclusively for almost 10 years and I love them!! I just bought that Gen 3 fuel impact and hammer drill around Christmas time and it's the best impact/hammer drill combo I've ever used!! I also bought the 12 volt fuel impact and hammer drill kit and those could out perform most other companies 18 volt kits!!!
I have dewalt 20v, skil 12v, skil 40v for yard tools, and a makita powered screwdriver (I love it.) I think the differences in quality among the top brands is so narrow now that you can focus on price and get a good tool for a low price. I love the skil 12v circ saw
Dewalt’s 3 LED level settings are:
1 - drilling/driving
2 - damn my eyes are getting old
3 - home defense
This is the best comment here, properly made me chuckle 😂
lol love it. As a DeWalt owner, I have to agree.
Lmbo🤣
next thing you know, dewalts going to be putting halogens in their flashlight
I’m dead 😂😂
If you tie his hands, his ability to talk stops.
Ha ha
LOL
teo long yeah he looks like a Jim Hensen muppet dancing around lol
It may be because it is 5am, but this comment really got to me... I don't know what it is about bashing people that talk with their hands, but it is always hilarious!
@@MPGamingCentral I wouldn't call it bashing; I too find it interesting that gesticulation for some people is part of their speech; we all do it to some degree but some do it at the sound of every syllable.
My family owns a trucking company, and the Dewalt drills are in our trucks. Great drills, will easily spool up 18 4" strap spools, and keep going. Even when they're water logged.
My Rigid drill and driver have held up very well for over 10 years now. I recently bought upgraded batteries for them and they function even better now. Excellent tools and great warranty.
This guy:I categorizing drills
Me: wait, there's more than just Dewalt, Milwakee and Makita?!
I never heard of half the tools he said tbh😂😂
@@noegmad 😂 in my opinion ryobi isn't the best but everyone has an opinion right?
@@noegmad hahahhahah ryobi is so shit i can smell it through the video
Cool to see more than 3 tool brands 😂
@@drewm.529 ryobi ain’t bad for price tho
Literally no one:
The comment section: As a Milwaukee owner...
I’ll kill someone over my Milwaukee tools it’s that serious
agree. Milwookie it is.
As a Milwaukee owner I wish I brought something else,.....
There bits ae anything but heavy duty, snapped multiple square drives with there impact driver, to the piont I wont buy Milwaukee bits. The electronic clutches are terrible have an old milwaukee mechanical cutch which is far better. Have one of there expensive usb torches and a $5 Chinese torch is twice as bright. There small socket set, the bits keep falling out. There step drills are soft as well. Nothing but hard duty BS, more like cheap crap with expensive price. 5 years ago I would say there were at the top of my list, now I would class them as average.
@@jaredturner4089 every Milwaukee owner will ignore you, poor soldier, love from a Bosch owner
@@jaredturner4089 only honest Milwaukee owner I’ve seen haha -makita fanboy
Before I bought my first battery powered tool, I knew once I did I would likely stick with that brand. My coworker is obsessed with Milwaukee products and convinced me. I also try to live by the phrase "buy once cry once". I've been very happy with all my Milwaukee tools so far.
I install solar panels on roofs with de walt tools. Never let me down. My impact driver has fallen several times from a couple of meters high and never flinch a bit. Works perfectly still. In the rain, storm, heat is has been through it all. My dewalt drill and hammer drill has gotten less exposure then my impact but dewalt is my go to.
I appreciate how fast he moves thru the video. Time is money.
I have used most makes of various tools on jobs and im divided.All my tools are dewalt but....The makita skill saw is better no one comes close to the dewalt multi tool the worst one is Milwaukee imo.Seems to me ryobi is a good tool but all manufacturers build certain tools better.Kango is by far the best hammer lol.
I never thought watching someone talk shit about power tools could be so much fun. Thank you.
As an electrician's apprentice, I got a ridgid sub-compact drill. It did the job, but felt gutless and lower quality than the milwaukee and dewalt drills. It started to become faulty after only 6 months, so i used their lifetime warranty and got it fixed and back to working fine again. overall decent drill, very happy with the warranty.
Harbor Freight's Bauer 20v line definitely deserves to be in the Apprentice category. Especially the new brushless tools they are coming out with. What you get for the price is hard to beat. And the in-store instant replacement with the extended warranty is awesome.
Agreed. I like Bauer tools.
I have a Bauer impact driver. I've had it for 3 years, I use it almost daily for light use and sometimes for more than light use. I like it, but my bitch about it is, it's not very compact. From back to front it's the longest impact driver I've seen.
I have both, the Bauer hammer drill and the Bauer impact driver. I love them both. I installed a handrail at mother's house, and the hammer drill handled drilling into the concrete very well. So I decided to get their drill/driver as well as other accessories.
Literally everything fits into the bag that came with the set. I have the charger, 2 batteries, the drill, the impact driver, work radio with Bluetooth, usb adapter, and 3 sets of Bauer bits & sockets.
NGL Bauer Tools are pretty Decent from Harbor freight for the Money Cheap Affordable Reliable..But I’m Team MILWAUKEE!!!!! 🔴⚫️
I just came here to cuss him out for putting Milwaukee as a beginner and Ryobi as pro. Then I found out he tricked us. Good one.
Man same, I was gonna go off
Same here lol
GFJF The many professional customers would disagree with you, just to let you know...
GFJF Yeah, I agree with the price but many trust them 🤷🏻♂️
cool hawk definitely agreed
As a Milwaukee user, where I work everyone else uses Dewalt. After my buddy’s drill broke on a job (dewalt) I let him use my drill. He came in the nest day with the M18 fuel brushless Milwaukee drill. He told me he loved the way mine felt and he had to get one. Lol
I'm newly converted as well!
My Dewalt impact struggle to get through the material I drive screws through without holes predrilled, I just spent $1000 on a desperately needed packout box, their drill/driver combo with 2 5ah batteries and 2 pack of 4ah batteries.
Next will be the supercharger and other tools for my upcoming apprenticeship (plumbing or carpentry) each month I'm investing in at least 1 tool.
I did the same thing with my buddy and my Bosch's PS21 compact driver. It was the first little compact on the market. He literally laughed at me until he picked it up and used it. Next day, he shows up with one.
I'll put that in my top 10 tools of all time. Small, light, powerful for what it was (screw & nut driving) and cheap. Oh, and rock solid reliable. The "they don't make them like they used to" adage sure can be applied to Bosch.
I think I'll give Milwaukee a shot.
I'll probably check it out if my Dewalt ever breaks, but it's even been dropped in a lake and it's still going strong. Probably helps that I'm only apprentice level.
I’ve discovered a weird thing with a lot of people, if they use one brand loyally for 3-4 years, when you hand them the opposite competitors brand, they will LOVE IT regardless of if it’s better or worse
Talked to a carpenter recently who said the company had switched to Milwaukee, but he personally preferred DeWalt as he knew of several who had had issues with their Milwaukee tools in wet and/or cold conditions. I'm just a hobbyist/DIYer so Ryobi serves my needs fine for cordless stuff (the breadth of tools available was a factor since I really want just one battery system, and I tend to go for their more "upmarket"/better built tools where they have several variants). For the bigger, corded stuff I've stuck with blue Bosch and Metabo till now. Long ago I bought a B&D hedge trimmer - it lasted one and a half season before chewing through a gear, and that's when I learned the value of detailed parts lists. I replaced it with a Metabo which is built like a tank compared to the B&D.
The company I work for issues the Milwaukee M18 Fuel and I loved it so much I bought one for my dad last Xmas.. he also loves it. I spent about 12 hours drilling concrete for drop ins in 100+ degree heat at a stadium and was shocked it didn't melt or catch on fire. The motor still works fine but a 30 ft fall onto concrete messed up the chuck a little bit and it drops the bits occasionally.
Agreed.
I have a couple older makita tools and was looking to build up my collection last year. I first looked into milwaukee, but the biggest turn off for me, was the fact that any big combo deals that they had, had the lower end tools. Almost as if they were trying to pull people in with "sub par" equipment and after they bought into the brand, those people would need to spend quite a bit more to upgrade to the good products. I ended up going with Ridgid because of the warranty.
I was able to buy a 5 piece tool set from ridgid for $379 if I recall. A 5 piece toll set through milwaukee was $499. At first glance, that didn't look like a bad deal to get the milwaukee industry leading power and performance. The issue, though, was that you got a low end milwaukee drill, and a low end milwaukee driver. Some of the other tools were compact (cheaper) versions of milwaukees top products. Comparing the tools that came in my ridgid kit, they actually had more torque than the tools in the more expensive milwaukee kit.
The sad thing is that the ridgid drill and driver that I got were actually more expensive than the drill and driver that were offered in the milwaukee kit, yet the kit was $120 cheaper.
how has your kit been running so far?
@@good-tn9sr Love my circular saw, hammer drill, and impact driver. Been using them a lot with no issues. Octane batteries charge fast and hold a good charge. Haven't used the 1/2" impact a whole lot, Only used the router a few times. Bought a finish nailer last year and that has been great as well. My only issue with ridgid is the lack of yard tools. I'm looking to replace my gas weed whip with electric and don't really want to go to a different battery.
Milwaukee has Ala Carte combos for fuel where you get big discounts by buying a combo and then whichever pieces you want. Also, you can get extra batteries with any kit alot of times. I got 500 bucks off and a 289 dollar battery added to my selection. So I buy fuel for my everyday heavy use tools and then the brushless line for my back ups or lesser used items.
@@chancecarlton8403 you mean you get the brushed for your backups?
@dustinroberson1865 No, the brushless non Fuel line. It's the mid tier line. Not the newest technology but I honestly have less issues with them and they cost a lot less. Great value. I mainly got Fuel for the warranty, which I have used already.
When you get into your “Professional” or “Expert” levels, the differences aren’t really with the drill itself, but the batteries, customer support, and warranty.
Company I work for just bought a ton of Bosch tools... Main reason being, our little hick town has a Bosch service center, we bought the tools from them and if I ever have a failure they'll drive down, grab the tool, toss me a loaner set, and have it fixed within a few days... That's worth more than anything in my books
@@NovaNinja_ definitely worth every penny
I thought the difference between "Professional" or "Expert" levels is how the user uses the tools, I mean an expert can do wonders with professional but probably not the other way round
I agree with you 100%. I'm retired and can't really afford Milwaukee any more, but I've had real good luck with my Dewalt tools. As of today I own at least 8-9 20 volt tools. I wait and catch the combos on sale, and I ALWAYS go brushless. The exception is my 6 1/2" circular saw that doesn't come in a brushless. I refuse to use knock off, el cheapo batteries, and I use guality blades, bits, and attachments. The key to success is to take care of your tools, keep those batteries charged, and don't use cheap attachments. Milwaukee is top shelf, but Dewalt gets the job done just as well provided you don't abuse them.
@@petegonzales3916 I agree. I can't afford Milwaukee on Social Security, but as a retired pro I don't have any issues with my Dewalt 20 volt tools. The key to Dewalt is to use good batteries and good attachments; blades, bits, and so on.
I remember when Black & Decker were quality. Last century.
Facts
I had a small black & decker air compressor from the 80s I got it off Craigslist after using my dad's my entire life and its still great for filling tires even big 40s on my toys. Along with his old corded black & decker tools. Unfortunately after using it at home depot on a slow leak when I went in someone needed it more than me so I'm on the hunt for another.
When Stanley Black & Decker bought DeWalt, Black & Decker was are aligned to be a home owner/DIY brand to focus DeWalt on the Pro market. Funny fact about the Mac Drill, SBD owns Mac Tools and that drill is built by DeWalt.
I will say i have a black and decker circular saw (betty) that's been going for 10 years strong
My dad has a older corded 3/8ths black a decker drill and the thing freaking rips it by far better than the black and decker 20v
I saw that Festool (didn't know it was Festool) kit rolling on a boat yard and wondered what it was. Knew it was some kind of vacuum, thought it was a water extractor with the cases. Great write up. I invested into Dewalt, sometimes I wish I did the Milwaukee but I am not using these tools even monthly at times. My DeWalts have done any task I have wanted easily (I have their big impact wrench as well and it's powerful and compact. It's actually amazing how compact cordless tools have gotten in the last 10-20 years.
I've owned a Ryobi impact driver for about 12 years now. Used for landscaping so sinking big timberdrive screws and big coach bolts etc when doing decking. It just won't die, quality tool
I use my Hyper Tough cordless to stir my peanut butter and put together IKEA and Walmart furniture.
I've used a hyper tough 18v drill for 3 years mixing paint, cement for parging and driving drywall screws. It was 50 bucks, I've drilled through 1/4 " steel with it and used it to mix mud. I bought two batteries for it and it lasts for the whole day mixing and screwing even decking, not bad for 80 bucks total and three years. use
I use a very primitive black and decker for my furniture assemblage. My wife ain't complaining.
I use my Ryobi drill and an electric mixer beater to mix my protein shakes at work. Smooth!
Ha ha. If you can find a way to put it to good use, you’re a winner.
Agreed. Got a Milwaukee combo kit from previous company when I first started. I’ve thought about switching platforms, but as an electrician, I feel like Milwaukee is really knocking it out of the park with both m12 and m18 fuel tools
the dude misinforming the mass the makita has 1250 ftlbs and the milwaukee has 1200 flat my brother had the mil and i have the makita and forst hand before properly researching it i found out i was right all along
@@bannana6290 is that milwaukee with the HO battery>
I love Ryobi products. I have had my impact and hammer drill along with my corded drill for 5 years and I use them on a daily basis. Yes batteries may go out but I have only had to replace 3 and I wouldn't doubt it would be due to my errors with laziness/ ignorance of the proper ways to maintain and prolong use . Just picked up the 1800 psi compact pressure washer they provide to keep on me at all times and was definitely worth the price
I install frameless showers and have been using the Rigid drills. They’re good! But I’ve been wanting to go all Milwaukee so I’m very happy to see it’s placement!
Idk why im here but i bought milwaukee and im rooting for them like my home town team. Very weird thanks for the video!!!
😂😂👍 that's awesome! Thank you for watching!
LOL, same here, I came in here like I used to go to their games as a kid, haha.
The chinese thank you for your loyalty.

Man I just said that to my girl "referring to this guy" 5 min into this video. Lol
Now I can’t unsee it, thanks 😂
I was doing construction with a couple of my work friends. One had a dewalt the other had a Milwaukee. I used both and you could tell the difference in power. Both are great quality tools. I found a pretty sweet deal on a dewalt impact driver and drill at a local pawn shop with 2 2AH batteries, charger, and bag that came with them for $150 literally looked brand new. But damn Milwaukee is nice..
The problem with Milwaukee,.is that they are red. Red is the colour of evil. The colour of Arsenal FC. The colour of Liverpool FC. Evil beyond measure . Plus, they weigh like 99 tonnes!!! Why??? Why??
Milwaukee always has the strongest batteries/most power. They are great. But DeWalt makes the toughest and longest lasting drill.
In a decade of construction we broke every cordless tool we had. All the DeWalts still work today. But we’ve worn out all the DeWalt batteries multiple.
Edit: We broke every cordless Milwaukee we had. Milwaukee corded tools are stronger built, but they are cumbersome and heavy to use.
DeWalt tools handle high accidental drops and such better. We burnt up only one DeWalt drill, and it was corded. It had been used to mix up several hundreds of five gallon buckets of drywall mud, using a 6” beater. No problems. So we started using it for mixing wheelbarrows of concrete, obviously our mistake.
@@WontSeeRepliesI agree with this I’ve got a corded Milwaukee circular saw and bandsaw from the early 90’s that are still running like champs, and a dewalt variable speed drill that keeps on chugging along
@WontSeeReplies that's funny, it's the opposite for me. I've broken so many dewalt tools, all my friends use that and they've had to replace them multiple times, even the XRs. Milwaukee on the other had held up for my coworkers. One of them doesn't even look red anymore, it's more faded pinkish now from how it's been used. I've since then switched to Milwaukee, not even the Fuel line and they've never once failed me.
As a tradesman, I love my Milwaukees!! I have some about 30 yrs old and still running great. One issue I've had in the past 10 years on two of the drills the chucks started slipping a bit. 🤨
Thanks for the review. I'm a Milwaukee tool guy to the core. I have no less than 8 M18 Milwaukee tools, all of which are awesome. And yes, I own the M18 hammer drill which I recently used to anchor some garage cabinets to concrete. Performed flawlessly. Milwaukee tools rock. And no, I have no affiliation nor do I get paid.
No doubt Milwaukee is tough. I use dewalt at home but we primarily use Milwaukee at my work place. I accidentally ran my impact gun over with a half loaded 5500 dump truck in the parking lot and it still runs like a top. Couple of scratches on the head and a snapped belt clip is all she got.
I use Ryobi for all my home use, they make plenty of great gardening tools with their one+ line.
At work we use Makita.
Got the impact/hammerdrill FUEL kit from milwaukee about 2 months ago and I gotta say you're absolutely right. I use the drill to drill holes in stone/masonry material for tapcons literally every day to strap electrical conduit and H strut to walls and it just eats it up and asks for more. Couldn't be happier with it and it's one of those tools that as soon as I pick it up I smile inside and every time I put it up I smile again. Love it. It is definitely a beast.
Aye, a true craftsman loves his drill, every bit as much as a true Viking loved his sword. I recently lost my 2006 20v Craftsman Pro series in a shop fire. I still have doubts that any modern 20v could compete with it- a true workhorse and companion for nearly two decades- Valhalla "Big Red- The Drill", on to newer seas.
My neighbor, NYC MTA supervisor and a great mechanic, recommended me Rigid impact wrench. I bought it and love it. I agree that Rigid tool belongs to Expert category.
Ryobie needs their own category.... "Expert Disposable" I do not know how many Makitas I lost due to apprentices leaving them in attics or dropped off ladders. I started keeping a couple Ryobi drills on the work van. Changed from me yelling "There goes your paycheck this week" to "That is comming out of your paycheck this week" ..... they never had to pay since I remember my years as an apprentice.
🤣🤣👍🏻
thanks for remembering where you started...Respect!
Get your ass back in the attic and get the drill.
Wtf you make them pay for the drill? What a shitty company
Corona light can you read?
I love how this guy is so animated when he talks but at the same time stares so seriously at the camera like he is secretly warning you about something
I want to commend you on extensive details. You guys are doing a great job! Thank you!
I dint know too much about power tools, but i been using a Milwaukee corded drill for 7 years and still runs like a top. Also, i just bought the Craftman Brushless 20v that you mentioned for $100. Good enough for hanging TVs, pictures and decors around the house. Great video!
Electrical apprentice here, Milwaukee gang. The drill is a beast. I’ve roughed in about 400 condo suites wood framed, 2x4 x5 it shreds!
Same, but I'm usually doing commercial work. We had all makita stuff but recently we upgraded to Dewalt tools. No complaints so far, the baby bandsaw is the most convenient tool ever. Its tiny and light and i can cut 2 inch pipe with it
Question for you....if we get a hammer drill for home stuff ... Do we really need an impact drill? I do y know the difference but the game seems to be the most powerful
@@salman13 im a bit confused on what you're trying to say here haha
@@salman13 are you talking about impact drivers vs hammer drills?
But have you ever cleaned the job site before leaving? Electricians...
My collection of cordless tools has been Makita, Metabo and recently, Milwaukee. I’ve had zero failures and only replaced batteries (and in the early model Makitas) chuck keys. I haven’t dropped any of my previous systems, just relegated them to home or shop use. Thanks for pulling this together .
Once you get in to the $150 range at least in my experience everything for the most part really comes down to accessories. That and experience. Personally my Kobalt Impact and Hammer Drill have done just fine with light to heavy duty work. Are they top of the line? No, but they will put in work.
I bet you've never used the milwaukee, you wouldn't wanna go back to your cheap tools
I started with porter cable and moved to Milwaukee fuel 18v. Absolutely a massive difference. There are places where other brands work better, but I’m invested into the battery line now, and so I’ll never change brands unless a tectonic shift occurs
I work on heavy equipment and have Milwaukee tools and nothing else when it comes to battery operated tools,
I made a mistake once by setting my milwaukee 1/2 fuel impact wrench on a dozer on the tracks and backed up and didn't realize it was there until it was past the sprocket, long story short the impact got crushed( the impact mechanism was intact though) but the battery only got cracked in the housing so i taped it back together and still use it today. Freaking amazing
stratt doug sams here 🤟🏻
I dropped my M12 driver on a concrete floor from 15-20’ up while disassembling a roof. Right from the peak landing on the worst place. I wasn’t going to kill myself making a wild grab so away it went out of my shitty I’ll fitting holster ! It hit straight on the corner of the back of the motor housing . I watched it go all the way horrified. Guess what, nothing but A SCUFF on the corner. Whatever plastic the use for that housing is 1St Class.
Y’all drilling that bucket like it’s Piper Perri.
mursingbro see what you did there😜💯😂
I love my milwaukee 12 and 18 fuels. Plenty of power, comfortable and light weight. Excellent attachments is a a huge selling point for me. I've owned about 4 or 5 different brands and I have to say the milwaukee is definitely on a whole different level.
Agree. We use Milwaukee drill and impact driver every day for the last 3 years in our job site and they haven't failed at any tasks. We had a drill fall 35 ft from the basket and it still worked for months after even though it was cracked. We recently replaced it. Very happy with it.
The three speed DeWalt with the 60v battery is definitely the expert winner, strongest and certainly the longest lasting of any you tested. I sold all my Milwaukee tools years ago due to never ending battery issues. Switched over to Dewalt and love them. Just purchased their battery powered lawn mower this year, it is a beast!
another good thing is the consistency of quality owing to good plants in Mexico
The only thing I've gathered from these debates: USER PREFERENCE.
@Erin Baringer that's what I got out of it too. He gives no specs on how he got to this list of tools
Ya, definitely not scientific at all. None of this will hold up in court
Ive used Dewalt tools everywhere and own only Dewalt myself for work. They have never given me an issue so I continue to use them. Not saying that Milwaukee doesnt make a good tool, but thats my preference.
I like the Matabo cord addition idea. You plan on running a tool longer without wanting to change batteries seems convenient, but I’m team red all day.
I have been using Dewalt dcd999 for concrete work. I find it to be amazing. Recently found out that this specific model might be a home depot exclusive so if you're at Lowe's, Milwaukee shown here will probably perform better
I’ve run Milwaukee for the last 12yrs wouldn’t change to anything else
I always ran a Milwaukee Greece gun and dewalt tool until one of my guys brought a Milwaukee impact driver, yeah I run Milwaukee now
Jus got myself Milwaukee 1st fix nail gun to go with my skill saw
im mixed on milwaukee and makita
I can't get a Milwaukee to last a year. Had to switch 3 years ago
Best thing about Ryobi One+ tools or DeWalt is I can get an entire day's worth of yard work and DIY home repairs done with the same battery from either ecosystem. Cut down a decent sized dying tree with my cordless chainsaw, swap the battery into my hedge trimmer to knock back some overgrown shrubs that my neighbor is negligently letting grow way into my yard, swap it into a cordless weed-whip to edge up the driveway and sidewalk, swap it right into the blower to clean off said driveway and sidewalk, then into my drill to re-attach the gutter that got knocked loose because the aforementioned dying tree shed a limb right onto the gutters during the last storm. Oh shit, lost my drill bit under the patio. Swap the battery into a flashlight and go retrieve the bit. Just noticed my car has a flat. Swap the battery into an impact driver and get that thing changed in under 5 minutes. There are definitely better tools for the jobs, but having the same battery power 40 different tools is priceless to me.
I'd have to agree with you on this one. About 2 years back after quite some research I bought me a ryobi 18V jigsaw and the triangle palm sander. It was about the best things I could afford back then. Haven't used em all that much, not even every month so spending much more would just be wasteful.
Recently tho I started working in a profesional tools shop here and I'm in need of a cordless drill. I obviously first looked at ryobi as well I already have a battery and charger. Came across the (R18PDBL-252S) as I want a nice drill. Noticed the price was a bit high so checked other brands we actually do sell at out store and seems dewalt also has a nice and similar set as that ryobi set. Took me a few days of thinking but along with the higher prices on dewalt tools (even including my discount) and the fact I don't use them too much I decided to stick with ryobi. Having just 1 set of batteries for all your power tools is a convenience I don't wanna get rid of.
So later today I'm ordering my new ryobi drill in a set with the beefy 5AH battery and even gonna get me their 125mm brushless angle grinder as I feel I'll get a lot of use out of that as well.
Got all those as well ...and the box vacuum....and the 7 1/4 chop saw - not as good. But I use em all all the time doing re- mods
That chain saw is the bomb!!!
@@denny3161 Thanks for the reply, you have any clue if a 5Ah battery would be enough to scrap some pallets and maybe cut a few logs?
Yes sir. We have the blowers, weedeaters, hedge trimmers, and chainsaws coming soon. I own a landscaping company and dewalt works the best for us. It worked so well that's all I have at home now.
i use mostly dewalt and milwaukee but i gotta say i picked up a small rigid tile saw recently, put a different cutting blade on it, and have done some really fantastic work with it. It's nice that its a third the weight and half the size of my monster pro saw, and cuts honestly about as well. nice for smaller jobs that i still want good cuts on. paid for itself 8 months ago and still kicking.
i know this is a drill video, just my only real experience with ridgid. my drills are all milwaukee and i love them very very much.
I've used Dewalt, Makita, Ridgid, Milwaukee drills and impacts. They're honestly all great, I would say Milwaukee was the best but it was also the newest. Ridgid drills are surprisingly very good, just slightly bulky. Tons of power and great bang for buck and would highly recommend to anyone. I've dropped multiple ridigd tools from heights, beaten the heck out of them,caked in mud etc. They never let me down. All that being said, moving forward I'm going to be buying all Metabo HPT tools. I've heard nothing but great things and I use their pneumatic nailers already. Excited to get more of their tools.
They make really good grinders I repair heavy equipment and that’s what my previous boss was vested in. Loved them. I still use my dewalts and love em but the metabo stuff is smooth.
You and I must be on the same path in life haha. I absolutely LOVE HPT kit. Everything in their range is powerful AND ergonomic as hell. It's crazy how little effort is needed on the machine's end to accomplish anything. It's all so smooth and if the tool is just saying, "is that all you got for me?"
I'm always raving about their routers, especially. Go green or go home, I say. Metabo is the way forward.
GERMAN MADE, GERMAN QUALITY, like he said like the MERCEDES BENZ, AUDI, PORSCHE, I GUESS EVEN VOLKSWAGEN, WHICH I BELIEVE ALL ARE GERMAN MADE
Rigid are known here in europe as Aeg i have 3 of their angle grinders they are great.
I’ve got makita tools and they’ve always been spot on, take some heavy use everyday. Got drill, impact driver, belt sander, orbital sander, router, 5+9” grinders and circular saw. Always been great and only time the circular saw stopped they took it back and repaired for free even out of warranty. Quality service included
I'm with you on Makita. Over 20 years now.
20 year renovation contractor. All my cordless is Makita. Corded SDS demo hammer. My bench top tools are DeWalt but love Makita
I have some Makita drill and impacts. Have always liked them, but that new black subcompact had to go. Used it for two days and took it back. Just lacked power to me.
@@joeymerrell8585 the makita 18v is actually the strongest hes lieing the mil has 1200 ftlbs and the makita has 1250 ftlbs i have the owners manual unlike mr blackand decker making money off rotting our brains
I was looking for a Phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range, but went with the Bosch set, instead. I love them.
Thank you for sharing. Do you the similar video for cordless driver ?
Just stumbled upon you guys on RUclips. Right when I heard you talk, I was like, “this dudes from Philly”. Then end of the video, sealed the deal even more! I too am from the area, northern MontCo.
Just want to say, I have a gutter cleaning company and I started using Ryobi tools and never stopped. As you can imagine, they get wet and dirty. They just keep on going. I once dropped my impact off a 2nd story roof onto an asphalt driveway, the battery flew off, I put the battery back on, and still works 2 years later. I use it also for when we build shed pads to drill 1/2 holes into Timbers to set our rebar stakes. Never smokes or anything. Every Ryobi tool has proved to be solid, for what we do. The recip saw is a little iffy and I’ve burned out quite a few doing demo work but then once they came out with brushless, that improved. I also love when Home Depot has their sales on batteries, they usually come with a free tool. Ryobi works for me!
Good Job, breaking down all the model Drill/Drivers into categories to make it easier for us to determine which one is right for us. 👍
My dad used Makita tools in his young years as a carpenter and they still work to this day. Circle saw, drill, sander, all that.
I been using Ryobi everything for 20 years. I like all my stuff. Like that I can use the same battery for all my tools.
About 2 years ago I had a Milwaukee M18 burn out on the job (fence/deck installer) it was given to me for free from the company I work at. It lasted roughly 8 months. I needed to finish the job, and there was only a Menards within a 60 mile radius. Ended up getting a Bosch kit on clearance for 120 bucks, figured I'd keep it for a back-up once I was able to replace the Milwaukee. Got the new Milwaukee, but the Bosch's weight just feels more balanced to me, and have been using it daily for the past 2 years.
I have the Hitachi/Metabo HPT brushed, the Milwaukee Brushed, and the Milwaukee brushless hammer drill/drivers. I would 2 brushed ones in the low end of pro and the brushless in the mid-high end of pro. They all do the job I need.
I had a makita that I left in my attic for 2 years. When I found it 2 years later I hit the trigger and it still had charge!! I was in shock. Makita battery technology is best in the business
Wow thanks for the feedback!! Makita defineltly makes some awesome tools. I can't believe it still held a charge that long!!
My car battery cant keep a charge for 2 weeks. I need Milwaukee or makita car batteries asap
My boss runs Makita and let me tell you, they have very impressive cordless tools. I run Milwaukee and the 12ah battery makes life a dream
I did same but with 12v Milwaukee drill
You guys, those drill batteries are lithium, they ave extremely low self discharge. Car batteries on the other hand (which are lead acid batteries) have a pretty high self discharge by comparison.
Love this style of ranking. Thank you
Hello had a question it was hard to notice, is the amp/volt on the batteries the same on these tests?
Wow, that was one hell of a video. Thanks for taking the time to do this. Oddly enough, I'm currently looking to purchase a new drill. Thanks again!!!
This thumbnail is the Chaka trolling I live for
*waiting for the Chaka comment*😁
Hay brother u were correct did not realize my Milwaukee M18 oscillator is not a fuel by the time I went out to my truck to look at it the channel ended but ended up taking a picture of it I put it on Vince's Instagram page and he asked me if I wanted hand to send you the picture I told him to worry about it I'll catch you later but then I realize at the oscillator was not a fuel you were correct brother I'll talk to you later
Dustin Walter LOL I don’t think he’s concerned
Joseph Malinowski you’re talking to me not Dustin just to be clear right? And yea no worries, kinda hoped you had a secret confidential Milwaukee brushless version but no big deal, they work fine as you know, would just be nice if they brought them forward
@@Fee.1 I know I wanted to talk to you last night when they were doing the competition Milwaukee vs Skil oscillators I said the M18 was a fuel are you telling me that they don't make oscillators in fuel I went to go look at mine and you we're right that's all I was just pointing out that you are correct I was wrong that's all
Just bought this Milwaukee hammer drill kit yesterday for $291.63 after tax and it included a free tool so I picked the M18 cordless sawzall. Already used it for drilling on brick and loved it. Bought at Home Depot
Apart from the fact there are so many models so the companies are likely spread into at least two grades I agree with your list. I also think your list was a little more focused on value and power but some guys like Ridgid moved up based on warranty. Great video and thank you
I'm a pre-beginner, because I didn't get the thumbnail gag, until I read comments. 😅
I personally love skil i’ve been using my drill skil during all of my camper construction so far and it is amazing for a beginner drill
You should check out the hyper tough saw saw (reciprocator) don’t wall burnt up on a mid job and I needed a replacement quick and cheap and the high per tough is actually still being used. Little dude kicks good. Now I mainly use the cordless Dewalt
Just bought the package last week im so amazed by the quality, i used to work with jcb impact driver and drill. They are not on the same page
I’m only 10 seconds in but I’m already pumped based on this guys hand gestures!!
You think these hand gestures are good? Check out vice grip garage for PREMIUM grade hand gestures
Oh man I needed these comments.
You got me with that thumbnail lol. I clicked to see your reasoning on Milwaukee being a beginner tool and ended up watching the whole video. Great work keep it up!
Ive got the Milwaukee, slapped a 16mm sds drill bit in it and drilled 3 100mm holes through concrete for my garage ground anchor like butter.
Honestly, I don’t ever get my corded sds out anymore unless i want the chisel function.
It’s outrageously powerful
Absolutely love my Milwaukee sets. I have a lot of Ryobi tools and love them as well. Recently started picking up the Milwaukee 12v kits and they impressed me. if you don’t have a Milwaukee 12V screwdriver go get one. The kit is $100. You can do anything from screwing down plexiglass without cracking it to sinking 6” lag bolts.
I use Ryobi exclusively. Having my drills, blower, trimmer/edger, lights, circular saw, etc. all using the same battery and all at an affordable price while being pretty good quality makes them hard to beat for the average home owner.
Well when your in hvac the better tools means the more money you get lmao
@@dylancare3644 right, which is why it depends if you're a professional or just taking care of your own property. If you don't use your power tools every day there's no reason to buy Milwaukee tools. Ryobi works perfect for someone who's using their tool a dozen times a year.
I build fences and decks ive blown up 4 ryobi impacts and a sawzall in 1 year. going real strong on 8 months with milwaukee impact and hackzall, still use some of the ryobi stuff, the 6 1/2 inch regular brushed saw has held up amazingly next to the Milwaukee stuff and i love the twin pack of area lights for 50 bucks
@@kylez2141 I bought a Milwaukee to Ryobi adapter for some odd Ryobi tools that would only be used seldomly
That's the same for any line you buy into.
Lol got us all with that Milwaukee, and totally agree with your list
I have been installing cameras and running wire for almost a year using a Hyper tough drill and Bauer impact. Looked at my average time to completion and noticed a huge difference when dealing with any masonry. Decided to get the m18 fuel combo. My times halved and everyone enjoys using my drill. Blows through doubled brick, steel, and cement like butter. It has already basically paid for itself.
All my Milwaukee still going strong after 15 years! Had to repair the hammer drill a year ago and it's good as new!
Thumbnail is genius. Milwaukee owners are so obsessed with letting everyone know that "Milwaukee is best, everything else sucks!" That this was sure to trigger them!
Dewalt better
@@stan_smith395 there the exact same
@@overlordgaming752 no they not ones yello and one is Red battery bigger on the dewalt dewalt has 3 speeds milwaukee only has 2
@@stan_smith395 they both go vroom and screw shit, their the same. Theirs no real tangible difference and it’s all subjective stupid brand loyalty bs for 99.99% of people
if ur using its for heavy usage everyday u realise how different it is.
After writing a comment I just looked and saw how everyone else seems to agree with me that Milwaukee is number one. I’m a contractor and have 21 years experience.
David Bodnar what you thinking Makita or deWalt ?
duc pham the best quality battery hand tools available are made by metabo. (Not hpt) I am a tradesman/business owner and am running original batteries for over five years on all my metabo tools, though they are generally a fair bit more expensive. That being said, I own cases of all brand tools that I give to employees, Milwaukee still is the crappiest of them all (between red green yellow) the most poorly made but works fine and has tons of torque. They also seem to have batteries die quicker than dewalt tools. Can’t believe my metabo batteries still run so well
I'm a mechanic that uses nothing but Milwaukee I will have to agree with you I have used many many different brands and bar none will never use anything else.
Barely anyone outside the US uses Milwaukee, and that is for a reason.
80% of the Milwaukee-Hype derives from it being good tools, 20% is good old US patriotism that just doesn't count anywhere else, which is why 80% is usually not enough for any other markets ;)
Who wants to own a tool that's the same color combination as a caution sign
Hey never seen ya do one atleast but hear n see bout green works can ya do some review on their stuff please very curious to see how they are prices seem alright but that’s all i know lol.
i'm a makita guy and i can say that there is a makita for almost every category... i bought a HP333 to do some light wood shop work time to time but now i'm working in more serious projects and this cheap makita holds up prety damn well
Kind of hilarious when you think about how so many of these tools fall under single companies. Stanley, Bostitch, Black + Decker, Craftsman, Porter Cable, DeWalt, and more all under the same roof. Crazy!
It is absolutely crazy!
And tti with hart, ryobi, millwaukee, ridgid
It truly is. 2 companies basically. And not to mention how many of the designs are licensed from one of the big two and we’ll never have our suspicions confirmed
@@whitechris720 and makita is all alone,butt 280 tools on 1 battery platform. Than is awesomeee
+Mac tools
I'd have to say that the Ridgid Octane 18v Hammer Drill was a beast (now discontinued because it was stepping on Milwaukees toes). Their 1/2 impact actually outperformed Milwaukees. The batteries they were putting in the 3AH Ridgid batteries were the same as the top of the line that Milwaukee was using. Ridgid has great tools for the money!
Why would they discontinue it if it was almost beating milwaukee?
@@Prillbarky I can't verify, but if they're made by the same company, they won't want the cheaper tool outperforming the more expensive ones.
I would say that with Ryobi upping their game in the budget category, and Dewalt getting a bit cheaper than it used to be, the Ridgid brand has lost some footing.
I used to use the old ryobi blue line drivers for work and they were indestructible, but the battery life sucked after a while.
Now it’s all Ridgid 18v - hammer drill and driver are great, regular drill sucks along with the hand vacuum and tire inflator.
Everything else is great - circular saws (blade left and blade right), oscillating, jig, mini wheel cutter, etc. Batteries are great too.
For the smaller stuff, I use the Milwaukee Fuel M12 hammer drill, and the Fuel Driver.
Great video!
