Harbor Freight's Bauer line delivers surprising quality at a fraction of the price. Reddit consistently recommends it as the go-to budget pick for homeowners who don't want to overspend.
If you're drilling a few holes a year and can't justify $130+, Bauer is the honest answer. It won't last forever, but it'll last long enough for most people.
“I would suggest either Bauer, or Ryobi for a homeowner use. I haven't used either brand much, but I hear Bauer from Harbor freight is roughly equivalent.”
