Brushless Cordless Drills

The M18 FUEL is the drill professionals and serious DIYers reach for first. Brushless motor, 500 in-lbs max torque, and a 5-year warranty make it the most capable 18V drill you can buy.

DeWalt's 20V MAX XR brushless drill hits the sweet spot between professional performance and accessible pricing. It's the go-to for general contractors and serious DIYers who want pro-grade durability without Milwaukee's price tag.

Don't let the 12V rating fool you — the M12 FUEL punches like an 18V drill in a package half the size. The Spruce called it 'a beast in disguise' after two years of real-world use.

Ryobi's brushless 18V drill delivers genuine performance at a fraction of Milwaukee or DeWalt prices. The ONE+ battery platform powers 300+ tools, making it the smartest entry point for building a cordless tool collection.

Consumer Reports named this Harbor Freight brushless drill the top-rated cordless drill in their 2025 issue — a stunning result for a budget tool. It delivers brushless performance at a price that undercuts every major brand.
