DeWalt's flagship heavy-duty cordless drill is a job-site workhorse with 820 in-lbs of torque and three speed settings. Carpenters and general contractors consistently reach for yellow on tough framing and construction tasks.
Even though we accidentally dropped it during a project, causing some scuffs on the housing, the drill itself remained unscathed.
DeWalt is a favorite of the 'prosumer' brands. You'll see its tools on many professional job sites, but the price point is also accessible for many consumers.
Dewalt - Rough, extremely durable
I see a lot of Dewalt when it comes to carpentry/framing, but a lot of them also use pneumatic/corded as well.
The go-to drill for professionals who need serious power in a compact package. Dominates in torque, hammer drilling, and runtime, it's the drill serious tradespeople actually buy.
The highest maximum torque rating (500 in-lbs) of any 18V brushed drill, and it crushed the competition in high-torque tests by completing 20% more bored holes than second place. Best-in-class performance at a mid-range price.
Makita's pro-grade 18V brushless drill delivers contractor-level durability with ergonomics that tradespeople rave about. The LXT platform is massive, and Makita's build quality is legendary on job sites worldwide.
800 in-lbs of torque and a 4.0Ah battery in a kit that pros say performs like Milwaukee and Makita at a fraction of the price. Backed by Home Depot's Lifetime Service Agreement, the best warranty deal in the category.
