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 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.

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
@ashleyrosevear4319
@ashleyrosevear4319 Жыл бұрын
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...

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

All Ridgid for me.... Can't beat the warranty even on the batteries. I just had 9 batteries replaced that lasted 5 years each..... Didn't cost me a penny and they let you keep the old ones that still work fine in radios and lights.

Same here. I have been switching over all my tools to Ridgid as I replace things that age out. Only had to replace one battery so far, and they shipped the new one out as soon as I called. Their tools are high quality, definitely pro-grade.

Ridgid is pretty much same as AEG, or Milwaukee, though many will refuse to believe. They're all owned and manufactured by TTi, and the batteries/tools are all interchangeable.

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

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 ;)

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.

Wow, was watching and thinking the same thing. Without a bonus handle though, to get that leverage you have to push from the back. Why don't drill makers make a handle on the rear? Kind of like carry handle looking thing that would extend back an inch or so, clearing the vents but allowing you to keep that screw bit in the screw without wallering it out.

Everyone should be making a plug-in option! Even if it's just an adapter. Metabo gets my vote for best drill for that reason only. I have a couple really nice old Makitas that still work great but the battery packs are not only dead, but nearly impossible to replace at this point. That makes them paperweights.

Buy Ridgid so you have lifetime warranty on the battery. It gives them incentive to keep the new battery system compatible with the old. The Octane 18V works with the prior Hyper Lithium Ion 18v.

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.

Hitachi power tools are now called Hikoki here in Japan, they have recently rebranded themselves to the new name. Their full name was Hitachi Koki, so they did the usual Japanese thing of mashing words together to get Hikoki (Pronounced hay-koh-key), derived from the English word 'high' and the Japanese term 'koki', meaning 'industrial machines'. Hitachi bought out Metabo a while back, hence the crossover in names in Europe, but Hitachi power tools was then acquired by US holding firm KKR, prompting the name change to Hikoki to differentiate the products. Here's waiting for the pump and dump and the drop in quality as is often the case after an investment firm gets their finger in the pie.......

Just stumbled upon you guys on KZbin. 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!
