Started out as a DeWalt guy. They fell behind years ago in power and features and relatively new tools broke. Switched to Makita but wasn't so happy with the variety of products. 2 years ago all my tools were stolen and my tile contractor gave me an extra brushless impact driver and drill. Wow. What a difference. So much more driving power. Super reliable. Now I have all Milwaukee Cordless - Sawzall / Circ. Saw / Grinder / multi-tool. They each are well made, super rugged, and very reliable. Hope to eventually have every tool they make. I'm now officially a Milwaukee guy.
