Great saw - get either the BSS610 or the BSS611
I’m a big Makita fan, so this may be just a bit biased: I like this saw a lot. This saw is very similar to Makita’s BSS610. The differences between the two are hard to find — and Makita doesn’t always tell you what [...]

DeWalt DeLight!
I have recently returned from Scott Base Antarctica, where I had the chance to use the DeWalt 18 volt “Snake light” on a daily basis. This proved to be the single most used and appreciated tool that I took with me. - Robust quality! -2 hours of light per charge! -worn around the [...]

Best Impact I have ever owned Use it everyday!
Four years ago I had a hand crushing injury at work. I’m a manager of a garage door shop and I have to use an impact everyday. My hand would hurt after a long day of using my old makita or dewalt impact. I was so happy [...]

Still “My new favorite tool.”
I’m a lead carpenter for a residential remodeler. I’ve owned 11 cordless drills over the years (currently I have 4) and this Makita is not only the best of the bunch, by far, it may be the best power tool I own. I’ve had it for about a month now and [...]

Great drill and impact driver for the money
I purchased these for do it yourself projects around the house. I have not owned an impact driver before, and read a lot about them before deciding to purchase. So far, I have been amazed. The driver can easily drive in big screws with or [...]

One battery DOA & only 1 year warranty
Mine just arrived and I’m a little disappointed. One of the main reasons to buy Ridgid tools is the lifetime warranty. Well, unlike other manufactures who include a full warranty of re-manufactured items, Ridgid doesn’t. It’s only one year, which I wouldn’t complain about if [...]

Great value at this price, get it while you can
When I first saw the 18-volt powerhouse Makita 6347DWDE drill at this price — which doesn’t even include the significant manufacturer’s rebate — I thought it was too good to be true and quite possibly a misprint. I had to re-read the description and the fine [...]

About the battery comment….
Responding to the prior comment about the user not having a battery fit with his existing Makita battery:
This is because he was trying to use the white 1.5Ah Makita battery (slim pack) in a tool that requires the more powerful (and larger and more $$$$) 3.0Ah battery. SOME tools can take [...]

New technology - best drill ever!
I have purchased several brands of battery powered drills for installing electrical lines in new construction, so I tend to use my cordless drills more than most. This Hitachi is hands down the best I’ve ever used. Not only the superior torque, but the battery life is incredible. [...]
