    Dewalt if you want it to last forever

    Milwuakee if you want to put it in a cool box

    Ryobi if you’re broke but dont live near a harbor freight

    Festool if you have a trust fund

      While I generally agree, I must say that my Ryobi tools are doing just fine after 15ish years of use. Primarily the drill is what’s used, and it’s seen some shit but aside from a little cosmetic issue (rubber peeling off here and there) it’s in great working order. I can afford better now, but I’m happy enough to keep what I’ve got.

      I’m just a handy home owner, so it’s not like I’m abusing these things.

        I started with Ryobi but they kept busting. I’m the type of home owner thatll remodel a kitchen or bathroom so I use them a little above average.

        Burn the heratic

        I wish Dewalt could make do half as good as the pack out but every new system has been a big miss.
