Wtf. Hilti first obv. Milwaukee has only two good tools- sawsall and impact gun, so how can they be second? Makita second. DeWalt third for their carpentry tools, Milwaukee fourth, and fifth who cares 🤷🏻♂️
Can’t go wrong with Dewalt, Makita, or Milwaukee. Simply the most well rounded brands . The other brands mentioned are also good. The top 3 just have all the bases covered
2 minutes in and i totally agree, I’m a plumber and yes ANY plumbing tool with the name Ridgid stamped on it is totally worth the money. I’ve been doing plumbing for almost 20 years and the only pipe wrench I’ve ever broke was not a ridgid it was a Lenox. I’ve also been using the same ridgid tubing cutters for over 10 years with no issues other than a bad cutting wheel. I also use the ridgid power tools for home use and the reason I don’t use them at work is because I started out with dewalt years ago and can’t justify buying all new when my tools still work.
I just started at Lowe's last week, in tools, and a guy was looking for a Dewalt coffee maker/radio. I thought he was pulling me leg until I saw the Makita coffee maker XD. Now I gotta look it up
You will never get quality coffee from something battery powered... Mainly because American coffee sucks. Once you go espresso machine you never go back.
@VCG Construction. Thanks Nick for putting out your list. I started out with Black & Decker Professional line, switched to Dewalt (12V & 14 4V). After switching from NiCad to LiIon, I went Makita. I also have corded and cordless from other brands. So from my collection and experience, my list is 1. Makita 2. Dewalt 3. Milwaukee 4. Bosch 5. Ridgid Hope the entire VCG and their families stay safe and well.
Ryobi is absolutely by far the best budget friendly manufacturer of tools, especially in Australia. The prices are unbeatable for Heavy DIY/Entry &/or Basic Trade work, the warranty is unbeatable (6 Year on the spot replacements for tools, 3 for battery's) The range is beyond exhaustive, if you need a power tool Ryobi makes it, and you'll have the battery and charger for it already. And in my several years of owning s decent collection of Ryobi, they are good enough for most tasks, and reliable mostly, no tool is perfect though. Not the absolute be-all in terms of performance/power, but absolutely a solid recommendation.
Agree. They will get the same job done as Milwaukee, Dewalt, etc… maybe not as fast or be as durable but great. I started my business +10 years ago and now. They allow people to buy more tool for there money with a lot of different batteries. They beat others like Kobalt and Craftsmanship because they kissy have bigger variety of tools. I like Kobalt too but they don’t have as many items. That said now that I afford better tools I’m looking at Milwaukee/ Dewalt.
I agree with the budget friendly aspect. The other thing is here in Australia we really only have Ryobi One+ HP in the prosumer class of tools that I tend to fall into, then you get into the pro range. There are other local brands trying to enter this market, they are normally company owned brands along the lines of Harbour Freights Hercules line but often not as good as they should be and in my opinion they are all DIY class tools below the original Ryobi One+. I have a mix in hospitality management, Ryobi is strong in my collection, I have a few Bosch Pro tools including my Dremel, Milwaukee and am about to pick up my first DeWalt and/or Makita tools. Then I also weld so have gone with an Aussie brand, Unimig, that I am very happy with that caters from prosumer to pro. To be honest I was a little surprised not to see Festool, Hikoki and Metabo on the list, at least as honourable mentions.
my room mate is a plumber and all he runs is rigid, they're pretty neat. im a electrician i run Milwaukee for precision work, such as under cabinet lights and roughing/finish residential electrical and i have a dewalt xr line for more back work like installing panels and running conduit. i respect all tool brands.
As a plumbing guy myself (work for a public water service) Rigid is THE big name in the game. Though there are some other high end manufacturers that only do plumbing tools like Reed and Mueller.
My platform is Milwaukee too. Is been great but in some tools are more expensive than the other brands. For instance Milwaukee circular saw is way more expensive than makita. I saw a deal at Home Depot that I couldn’t resist. I got the circular saw for 250 with 4 batteries.
Im in Asia, a DIY car mechanic, and I don't own any of these tool brands, but I'm intending to get my 1st drill and impact driver. No.1 on my list was Ryobi (for its price, performance and colour), No. 2 is Makita for its quality and reliability, No. 3 is Dewalt. But now I'm looking at getting Dewalt combo set (DCD796 drill + DCF 887 Impact driver) as I think it has the best value.
My Ryobi impact does 90% of what I need it to do in the shop, and has been very reliable for the shop. When it doesnt cut it, I just fire up the air compressor and finish the job.
1. Milwaukee (best in what they do on the wireless, covers more specialty items, 3 lines of tools and solid hand tools) 2. Dewalt (best construction grade saws) 3. Makita (most expansive wireless brand) 4. Bosh (best in some areas like hammer drills.) 5. Ridged (best for DIY low cost solid build)
Dewalt for me as never really let me down. I work mainly outdoors in wet, muddy extreme conditions and Dewalt tools just seem to keep going. I also own Milwaukee and Makita and they are excellent too. You can't really go wrong with any of the main players tbh,
and where you are in the battery life of your tools they all have pluses and minuses. I switched from Dewalt when the 18v batteries and chargers wore out. No easy transition to 20 v without big bucks Love the Kobalt, but at Lhowes was pushing Craftsman hard ---might have been OK esp with the deals, but I'm turned off by pushy salesmen. Same with Milwaukee and Ryobi staff wanting to lock me in --especially hard sell on Millwaukess. I switched to Makita, for quality, uniformity charging and easy customer service (so far). No need for 40V, so well settle on the 18V. Happy so far. Just kee[ a few batteries charged and good to go.
If we're talking cordless, Makita all the way. They have a top quality cordless tool for every niche. They also have excellent battery compatibility throughout the line and they are extremely durable and easy to repair in the rare instances where it's required. Battery powered tools are basically about the entire ecosystem and Makita has the most complete. It's hard to fault anyone for going Milwaukee either though. Those two stand above the rest in my mind.
XTR baby! Good call including Kobalt. The title "in the world" though has to make it either Makita or Hilti. IMHO, your list should be "Top 5 in North America"...
Dewalt was my first tool brand too and since then I’m in love!! Massive fanboy! Tried a few different brands but it hit the same spot light the yellow beasts!
Same here man. My dad the 18 volt drill and chop saw when i was a kid see him go throw tools left and right but that drill and chop saw would just keep kicking ass haha
I'm the same my first cordless drill as an apprentice electrician nearly 20 years ago was a 18v dewalt hammer drill was the most powerful drill on any jobsite at the time.. then tried some other brands with different companies and came time to replace all my tools and I went back to dewalt and I'm stoked as with there tools a range of great tools !!
Makita FTW! I own 22 Makita tools, 12 Milwaukee, 4 Dewalts and 2 hilti drills. Makita is far more reliable and powerful than any of the other brands, aside from hilti
my man...Don't know much about hilti, but I think I would like it if I had the chance to use it. Too expensive for me though and I think they are the best at what they make. I wouldn't consider them the best overall since I haven't seen much carpentry tools. I think it's just because of a different demand in Europe.
I like your list. All my cordless power tools are yellow & black. I'm glad you mentioned Kobalt & Ryobi. Not quite contractor grade, but the Kobalt tools I started out with worked every time.
My first kit of tools was DeWalt, i remember wanting a kit since I was a kid and instead of jumping the gun I waited and I finally saved up enough and bought a full on kit. After they got stolen eventually I ended up I'm the Milwaukee line of tools and I've never had or used better power tools!
I’m only 13 and have over a thousand dollars worth in Milwaukee tools and I can definitely see the value when I build my chicken coops and tables and other diy projects
Great video Nick!!! Think you made a very good list. I think I'm pretty close to you... 1. Milwaukee 2. Makita 3. DeWalt 4. Bosch 5. Ridgid I'd say that the new Kobalt stuff is awesome. They may be moving up the list. Also the new Skil stuff is really impressive. Watch out there lol. Keep up the videos guys...we all appreciate it!!!! #VCGconstruction #VeryCoolGang
I did 14 yrs as a Plumber/HVAC foreman, I liked Milwaukee, Makita, Ryobi etc. Milwaukee mostly because it’s what the supply house carried and was easiest to get and the rep came to the shop. However Ryobi has come along long way and has everything the others do at a far better price in my eyes if you purchase warranties on your tool which I do as I abuse them Ryobi is the best value for the $$.
Ryobi and Milwaukee are owned by the same company, Ryobi is just Milwaukee a few years back (essentially), but Ryobi has a wider tool range. Ryobi is really good for home owners, I think it's the best to be completely honest.
Honestly Ryobi seems to be the best option for me. I don’t need top of the line tools to do simple jobs around the house. There is no doubt that there are many better tools out there than Ryobi but the price and performance is exactly what I need. Still love Milwaukee the best though.
Ryobi and Milwaukee are owned by the same company so a lot of similar components and performance. Obviously not exactly the same but still for DIY can't beat it.
As a DIY mechanic and homeowner. My list is this: Nr1 Milwaukee, 2 Makita, 3 Dewalt 4 Ryobi 5 Bosch. I used to be in the Dewalt lineup. But my brushless drill was wobbling, and Milwaukee had a lot more to offer on the mechanic side. The Dewalt brushless high torque impact was good. But now i have a lot of m18/m12 automotive tools and I love them.
I'd say my list (im going to 10) 1. Hilti 2. Millwaukee 3. Dewalt 4. Kobalt 5. Makita 6. Ridgid (they have a subcompact series in stores rn waiting to be put out) 7. Bosch 8. Ryobi 9. Hikoki (i know its hitachi but itsnt that a vibrator brand also hikoki is fun to say) 10. Skil(i just love the halo light)
I started watching this guys a month ago and I can’t stop watching them I learn a lot on tools I’m not a big tool guy but now I wanna get all the tools lol
I watch a lot of project farm content, and almost every tools comparison he does, Milwaukee out performs everything, while dewalt is never even close! In my eyes, Milwaukee is hands down the best tool company out there and dewalt I might be at number 5, but no way they're number one
you base your opinion on project farm ? hahaha....the guy is informative and entertaining, but he doesn't know everything about the tools and what they made for.
Milwaukee definitely#1,, I am a electrician 30+ years, I've used about all brands nothing wrong with them tho, but Milwaukee has never let me down!! I've changed over to just about %100 Milwaukee include hand tools I think they are better than snap on!
I do agree that Milwaukee is the best but as far as hand tools I think snap on takes the cake. Price for price tho I’ll take Milwaukee hand tools cause of cost
We have Einhell in Australia (but rebranded as Ozito) and they're honestly not bad for budget tools. My dad has quite a few power tools, and garden tools of theirs, and while I use DeWalt for my power tools, I use Ozito for garden tools, such as my mower, and line trimmer. No complaints whatsoever.
With my small amount of experience I have found the list to run something like this: Milwaukee DeWalt Makita(maybe #2 solely because of the "expansiveness" of their lines. Ridgid Bosch All other tool brands Ryobi
@@badarjahangirkayani6196 Well the video is about best tools, not best bang for your buck. But I would agree with you with this for an impact and drill. I am a home "gamer" and I bought some Ryobi tools for Black Friday. Sawzall broke first project, jig saw the spring platform for keeping the platform square broke after 3rd project. Table saw is so bad, it is the only table saw in the world I need help feeding a piece of plywood through,. To the point of being unsafe. If your gonna assmeble some furniture and hang pictures, Ryobi is great. Of your gonna do any actual remodel, Ryobi is garbage.
That sounds odd. Since I have been using many of their tools for a while and they seem to work great for me. I guess everyone has their own experience with tools.
Every brand he mentioned is great. I’ve used most of them. It does seem like the hardcore contractors use more Mikita and Milwaukee though. I use DeWalt and love them.
1. Makita 2. Milwaukee 3. Dewalt 4. Bosch blue 5. Stanley fatmax ( best hand tools avaliable) Honorable mention of Ryobi and the old school Black n Decker! Hope you agree!
The problem is and NOBODY ever talks about it is the INTERNALS of the tools........Milwaukee and Makita POT their electronics. Dewalt, Rigid, and Royobi do NOT. This means that the internals in Milwaukee and Makita are ALOT more protected from hard use such as dust, dirt, and water. This is why all the attempts of using Dewalt have failed on our job sites. I build bridges so we're always working with concrete dust, working in the rain, and beating tools up in general so take it from me when I say that Dewalt tools just do not last under hard use.
If this is true it may explain why a roofer I knew swore by Milwaukee because his tools were always wet and beat UP. Seeing the inside is one more reason to love AvE channel.
Had a walmart brand sawzall I think hyper tech or something. I left outside most days in South Carolina, it works great, 3 years running at 25 bucks with a few blades not bad.
1. Makita 2. Milwaukee 3. Dewalt 4. Bosch 5. Ridgid Why? I've used them all. They are all good tools. But in my line of work, so far, Nothing has beaten my Makita tools. Dewalt Stack lithium batteries might actually take over the lead at some point. They are strong people. But for now I love my Makita. I also use the Milwaulee cordless table saw! And the Pack out line storage.
Down here in Brazil, MAKITA and BOSCH owns it all... Dewalt doesn't have representatives in the south and I've literally never seen a Milwaukee tool in any store. Actually, some tools here in Brazil, mainly tools with circular saws, are simply known as "makita".
I'm torn between DeWalt and Makita around here too. DeWalt seems a bit better tbh, but Makita is THE brand in Brazil. I even have a Makita Rep near my house so that tips the scale a lot too...
@@davearmano5344 Yeah, man... Dewalt is sometimes better regarding raw power, but Makita is usually better regarding ergonomics, technology and mileage...
I just bought a DeWalt corded saw (compound, 7 1/4") with the want to own and use for a lifetime. I'm glad there is a lot of positive feedback about the brand as I am a novice and the brand is not the lowest-priced in its market. I'm glad to have chosen my brand and color because I do not want my tool collection to look like a rainbow in the end haha :D
You keep upping your game in front of the camera brother. Dewalt was my first love also. But, Milwaukee stole my heart in the end. Kobalt 24v is quickly becoming my 2nd favorite as they continue to add and improve their lineup.
Good list. I have rigid, DeWalt, milwaukie, Makita and Ryobi in my garage! I would swap milwaukie and DeWalt as milwaukie has all the same offerings as DeWalt but milwaukie smashes everybody else in the compact tool world with their 12v line.
@@zylent8251 4 Years tig Mag/Mig in our company we have makita and fein and i have a metabo and the lasts over a 3/4 year and now i need new brushes while i had a maktia that burned out after 5 minutes grinding stainless steel and the fein gave me electric shocks from the gearbox because there was somewhere a bridge with dust in motor
1.Milwaukee 2. Dewalt 3. Rigid 4. Kobalt 5.makita 6. Ryobi That is what I think with the tools you talked about I have many more I could add to that list.
My number one is Makita because of the quantity, quality and smoothness of the tools, also in their outdoor line has the option to go from cordless to gas powered, also their compressors are some of the best I’ve used. Following is Milwaukee, Dewalt, Bosch and Ryobi
My number one is actually both Milwaukee and makita the good thing I love about makita is that is high end quality and is light I do love Milwaukee but I also love makita 🙂
I love Milwaukee tools that we have at work but thinking about getting Ryobi tools at home. They’re now owned by the same company and hopefully will expand the Ryobi cordless lineup similar to how Milwaukee is.
I'll be honest here, I dropped DeWalt 20v and switched to Ryobi18v +One. I payed half the Money for Ryobi and in my opinion the Ryobi brand is Fantastic.
For Mr Joe fix his own house with youtube videos, yes ryobi is good, but the only problem is when someone comes over your house you have to hide your tools so no one knows you have them
They dont, but hell I don’t really care lmao. Their batteries last way longer than any of the other brands out there and are way more reasonably priced as opposed to Milwaukee and Ridgid.
1. Hilti
2.Milwaukee
3. Ridgid
4. Makita
5. Bosh
Solid list, thanks for the feedback!
where is ryobi and dewalt .............thats y only 5 likes stick to the market bro
Wtf. Hilti first obv. Milwaukee has only two good tools- sawsall and impact gun, so how can they be second? Makita second. DeWalt third for their carpentry tools, Milwaukee fourth, and fifth who cares 🤷🏻♂️
Warre De Cock Bosch is better than Ridgid
Warre De Cock Bosch is way better than Ridgid and Festool is up there too
When it comes to tools, I think the biggest determining factor is. Which colour you like best.
i like the red one
Those kobalt tools are pretty nice looking now that you mention it!
Very true
Fact lol
Yup
Whenever Scotty Kilmer needs a day off, this guy can fill in for him

Can’t go wrong with Dewalt, Makita, or Milwaukee. Simply the most well rounded brands . The other brands mentioned are also good. The top 3 just have all the bases covered
I would throw ridgid in there too. From plumbing to vacuums ridgid is always surprisingly good, many times the best.

As a plumbing guy myself (work for a public water service) Rigid is THE big name in the game. Though there are some other high end manufacturers that only do plumbing tools like Reed and Mueller.

Milwaukee, dewalt and makita belong to the same level in my opinion they’re all great brands.
You can leave dewalt out of that. They screwed up with the last gen
Being from the Adirondacks, I use Milwaukee for everything!!!
Dewalt isn't as good as they used to be i switched from Dewalt to Milwaukee and I've been much happier Makita is pretty good though

Dewalt and Milwaukee for big jobs, Ryobi for small jobs. Ryobi makes everything! Their glue gun and soldering iron makes life so much easier

That's why I'm reluctant to buying all in these prestigious tools. Imagine $2000+ of tools being stolen.
I’m only 13 and have over a thousand dollars worth in Milwaukee tools and I can definitely see the value when I build my chicken coops and tables and other diy projects
@@addisonverseman5864 Yeah Milwaukee is the best!
This was the most accurate top five. Thanks!
This guy's hands is like he's having a heart attack🤣
1. Makita
Hm. Festool
2. Metabo
Hm. hilti
3. Milwaukee
Hm. Rigid
4. Ryobi

You are a brave man
I would replace Ryobi with Black and decker.
So brave

Great video Nick!!! Think you made a very good list. I think I'm pretty close to you...
1. Milwaukee
2. Makita
3. DeWalt
4. Bosch
5. Ridgid
I'd say that the new Kobalt stuff is awesome. They may be moving up the list. Also the new Skil stuff is really impressive. Watch out there lol. Keep up the videos guys...we all appreciate it!!!! #VCGconstruction #VeryCoolGang
Thank you for sharing your tool brand list with us Brandon!
Bro you got crazy energy heck ya bro nice video i needed that ..!!! 👏
Brave list.. I thought Metabo HPT (formerly Hitachi) may have rated an honourable mention. But when I saw Ryobi I figured it was over.
That’s funny
Its nt about quality of certain product, its about brand.
Metabo German still the best in quality, but the range of product is limited.
Hitachi certainly deserves a nod over Ryobi. And Porter Cable is much better.
Bro you look like your conducting an orchestra lol, good video guys
my list
5.rioby
4.Erbaur
3.Makita
2.milluakee
1.dewalt
should've drank more coffee this morning to be on this guy's level
1- HILTI
2- MILWAUKEE
3- MAKITA
4- BOSCH
5- DEWALT
Thanks for sharing your list james!
I did 14 yrs as a Plumber/HVAC foreman, I liked Milwaukee, Makita, Ryobi etc. Milwaukee mostly because it’s what the supply house carried and was easiest to get and the rep came to the shop. However Ryobi has come along long way and has everything the others do at a far better price in my eyes if you purchase warranties on your tool which I do as I abuse them Ryobi is the best value for the $$.
Ryobi and Milwaukee are owned by the same company, Ryobi is just Milwaukee a few years back (essentially), but Ryobi has a wider tool range. Ryobi is really good for home owners, I think it's the best to be completely honest.
@@16autisticklowns this is what I've been trying to tell people for like 4 years, finally someone that admits times change.
Where is Metabo,Hilti and Bosch Professional
best value for diy is now parkside perfromance. Ryobi lost in last years because of prices and parkside perf got better quality.
Honestly Ryobi seems to be the best option for me. I don’t need top of the line tools to do simple jobs around the house. There is no doubt that there are many better tools out there than Ryobi but the price and performance is exactly what I need. Still love Milwaukee the best though.
Totally agree. I have ryobi for house stuff and am slowly upgrading to Milwaukee as I go
I also agree! Ryobi’s new brushless tools are pretty cool. I also have milwaukee and I love those tools!
Honestly ryobi makes a really nice router. Been using mine for 4 years now on jobsites and still going strong.
Ryobi and Milwaukee are owned by the same company so a lot of similar components and performance. Obviously not exactly the same but still for DIY can't beat it.
@@taylorjaquez Yes both owned by TTI as well as Hart and the US licensing for Ridged. They are all great products for different lines of duty
As a DIY mechanic and homeowner. My list is this: Nr1 Milwaukee, 2 Makita, 3 Dewalt 4 Ryobi 5 Bosch. I used to be in the Dewalt lineup. But my brushless drill was wobbling, and Milwaukee had a lot more to offer on the mechanic side. The Dewalt brushless high torque impact was good. But now i have a lot of m18/m12 automotive tools and I love them.
Thanks for the feedback krille!
Yes I like DeWalt tools and Robi And Milwaukee awesome video
I love DeWalt and use them every day in my 3 trucks. Best value for sure.
Man your feeling for Bosch smart measurements is mutual... I love that.
I watch this video once in a while to get hype!!
I'd say my list (im going to 10)
1. Hilti
2. Millwaukee
3. Dewalt
4. Kobalt
5. Makita
6. Ridgid (they have a subcompact series in stores rn waiting to be put out)
7. Bosch
8. Ryobi
9. Hikoki (i know its hitachi but itsnt that a vibrator brand also hikoki is fun to say)
10. Skil(i just love the halo light)
Thank you for sharing your list with us Minnesota man!
Hitatchi changed its name to Hikoki when Hitatchi sold off their power tools division.
I started watching this guys a month ago and I can’t stop watching them I learn a lot on tools I’m not a big tool guy but now I wanna get all the tools lol
Thanks for being a part of the very cool gang Carlos!
I cant quit buying tools now bcuz of these guys lol just got the kobalt xtr line a couple weeks ago
Car guy here!! Milwaukee is for me, never mind 2345💪🏿
Ok I was shocked that Milwaukee was 3 but the Coffey maker is awesome!! And now I understand why it 3 and Makita is 2 I like
1.Milwaukee 2.Dewalt 3.Makita 4.Ridgid and YES 5.RYOBI for the value and the most selections in its class with forever one battery for all.
Great video for this newbie!
I love my Dewalt tools. I have several drills, saws, and weed trimmers.
I watch a lot of project farm content, and almost every tools comparison he does, Milwaukee out performs everything, while dewalt is never even close! In my eyes, Milwaukee is hands down the best tool company out there and dewalt I might be at number 5, but no way they're number one
My bad on this...but wtf is project farm content?!
@@Inks505 before you buy any tool, watch project farm. The best tool review comparison on UA-cam. Very informative...thank me later!
Dude what are you on about? DeWalt is in top three all the time
you base your opinion on project farm ? hahaha....the guy is informative and entertaining, but he doesn't know everything about the tools and what they made for.
They are always $$$$
1. DeWalt
2. Milwaukee
3.Ryobi
4. Makia
5. Ridgid
Don’t even get me started on Black and Decker
Milwaukee definitely#1,, I am a electrician 30+ years, I've used about all brands nothing wrong with them tho, but Milwaukee has never let me down!! I've changed over to just about %100 Milwaukee include hand tools I think they are better than snap on!
I couldn't agree with you any more
I do agree that Milwaukee is the best but as far as hand tools I think snap on takes the cake. Price for price tho I’ll take Milwaukee hand tools cause of cost
Makita gets my vote 👌🏻👍🏻
100% brother 270+ tools on a single bat.
Your😂😂😂😂😂 presentation is awesome!
This dude is funny!! 😂😂😂 makes me want to buy a tool from every brand! Even the Honorable Mentioned ones!!! Lol
I gotta Ryobi garage door opener and it's FN sick!
Me too! I don't think there is a better one in existence
Love the energy just earned you a subscriber
Top 5 for me: 1. Metabo, 2. Makita, 3. Bosch, 4. DeWalt, 5. Einhell (Yea yea i know, but i have some of their stuff and it work fine).
E Milwaukee? E hilt?
We have Einhell in Australia (but rebranded as Ozito) and they're honestly not bad for budget tools.
My dad has quite a few power tools, and garden tools of theirs, and while I use DeWalt for my power tools, I use Ozito for garden tools, such as my mower, and line trimmer. No complaints whatsoever.
@@ohalistair pelo que vi você esta falando mais de ferrramenra hobby.
Nao se compara com as gigantes de uso industrial,
With my small amount of experience I have found the list to run something like this:
Milwaukee
DeWalt
Makita(maybe #2 solely because of the "expansiveness" of their lines.
Ridgid
Bosch
All other tool brands
Ryobi
Depends on what you are doing. IMO Ryobi is the best bang for buck for the home gamer.
@@badarjahangirkayani6196
Well the video is about best tools, not best bang for your buck. But I would agree with you with this for an impact and drill.
I am a home "gamer" and I bought some Ryobi tools for Black Friday. Sawzall broke first project, jig saw the spring platform for keeping the platform square broke after 3rd project. Table saw is so bad, it is the only table saw in the world I need help feeding a piece of plywood through,. To the point of being unsafe. If your gonna assmeble some furniture and hang pictures, Ryobi is great. Of your gonna do any actual remodel, Ryobi is garbage.
That sounds odd. Since I have been using many of their tools for a while and they seem to work great for me. I guess everyone has their own experience with tools.
Every brand he mentioned is great. I’ve used most of them. It does seem like the hardcore contractors use more Mikita and Milwaukee though. I use DeWalt and love them.
1. Makita
2. Milwaukee
3. Dewalt
4. Bosch blue
5. Stanley fatmax ( best hand tools avaliable)
Honorable mention of Ryobi and the old school Black n Decker! Hope you agree!
Thank you for sharing your list r32harps!
The problem is and NOBODY ever talks about it is the INTERNALS of the tools........Milwaukee and Makita POT their electronics. Dewalt, Rigid, and Royobi do NOT. This means that the internals in Milwaukee and Makita are ALOT more protected from hard use such as dust, dirt, and water. This is why all the attempts of using Dewalt have failed on our job sites. I build bridges so we're always working with concrete dust, working in the rain, and beating tools up in general so take it from me when I say that Dewalt tools just do not last under hard use.
If this is true it may explain why a roofer I knew swore by Milwaukee because his tools were always wet and beat UP. Seeing the inside is one more reason to love AvE channel.
@@mediumgrey1947 Dude......that's exactly how I know this shit! Hahaha Because of AvE!!
Agree totally that's why I go Makita!
Had a walmart brand sawzall I think hyper tech or something. I left outside most days in South Carolina, it works great, 3 years running at 25 bucks with a few blades not bad.
@@mattgeiger9988 we're talking about commercial construction not whittling lol
1. Makita
2. Milwaukee
3. Dewalt
4. Bosch
5. Ridgid
Why? I've used them all. They are all good tools. But in my line of work, so far, Nothing has beaten my Makita tools. Dewalt Stack lithium batteries might actually take over the lead at some point. They are strong people. But for now I love my Makita. I also use the Milwaulee cordless table saw! And the Pack out line storage.
So this guy had the best should and arm work out lol 19mins of his hands moving up and down.
Down here in Brazil, MAKITA and BOSCH owns it all... Dewalt doesn't have representatives in the south and I've literally never seen a Milwaukee tool in any store. Actually, some tools here in Brazil, mainly tools with circular saws, are simply known as "makita".
I'm torn between DeWalt and Makita around here too. DeWalt seems a bit better tbh, but Makita is THE brand in Brazil. I even have a Makita Rep near my house so that tips the scale a lot too...
@@davearmano5344 Yeah, man... Dewalt is sometimes better regarding raw power, but Makita is usually better regarding ergonomics, technology and mileage...
I just bought a DeWalt corded saw (compound, 7 1/4") with the want to own and use for a lifetime. I'm glad there is a lot of positive feedback about the brand as I am a novice and the brand is not the lowest-priced in its market. I'm glad to have chosen my brand and color because I do not want my tool collection to look like a rainbow in the end haha :D
You keep upping your game in front of the camera brother. Dewalt was my first love also. But, Milwaukee stole my heart in the end. Kobalt 24v is quickly becoming my 2nd favorite as they continue to add and improve their lineup.
Thank you Jeff!
Milwaukee/Dewalt/Hilti/Makita/ doesn't matter after that
Thanks Jeff!
Festool?
Makita should not be at that list at all. Do you know Festool, Fein, Mafel, Exact?
Are you crazy??! Every hard-core contractor I know uses Harbor freight!
I’m 9 and got my dad’s old rigid tools and love them so much
Good list. I have rigid, DeWalt, milwaukie, Makita and Ryobi in my garage! I would swap milwaukie and DeWalt as milwaukie has all the same offerings as DeWalt but milwaukie smashes everybody else in the compact tool world with their 12v line.
Thanks for the feedback Chris!
Dewalt and makita makes some great grinders. I’m a welder I use them for all the time for repairs and prep work.
Totally true.
I am a welder too and i think the best grinders makes metabo
@@M8a7rk Metabo makes safest grinders and I guess most quality ones.Can you tell how many years are you welder and whichbtypes you know of welding?
@@zylent8251 4 Years tig Mag/Mig in our company we have makita and fein and i have a metabo and the lasts over a 3/4 year and now i need new brushes while i had a maktia that burned out after 5 minutes grinding stainless steel and the fein gave me electric shocks from the gearbox because there was somewhere a bridge with dust in motor
Dewalt makes a mean grinder! I have like 5 that are over 4-5 years old now! Just can’t kill em!!!
1.Milwaukee
2. Dewalt
3. Rigid
4. Kobalt
5.makita
6. Ryobi
That is what I think with the tools you talked about I have many more I could add to that list.
My number one is Makita because of the quantity, quality and smoothness of the tools, also in their outdoor line has the option to go from cordless to gas powered, also their compressors are some of the best I’ve used. Following is Milwaukee, Dewalt, Bosch and Ryobi
Chines tools ,
Try original german from german factory nit german from china
.
Festool and metabo i like more tha n enything ..
My number one is actually both Milwaukee and makita the good thing I love about makita is that is high end quality and is light I do love Milwaukee but I also love makita 🙂
Floats around in your pool and it plays jams! That's awesome.
This guy has a lot of energy, i need a nap after watching him.
Makita all day long. I just wish they made higher capacity batteries.
Same
40v coming out this year
Kmunz7 and it will compatible with 18v machines like the drilldriver DHP481
Guess its not that good after all if you "wish..."
I was a naysayer on Mikita for years. Now it'll be makita to the day I die for me.
I love Milwaukee tools that we have at work but thinking about getting Ryobi tools at home. They’re now owned by the same company and hopefully will expand the Ryobi cordless lineup similar to how Milwaukee is.
I'll be honest here, I dropped DeWalt 20v and switched to Ryobi18v +One. I payed half the Money for Ryobi and in my opinion the Ryobi brand is Fantastic.
@@corysmith7139 same I haven’t had problem
“If you gotta grease your nipples, Milwaukee will grease those nipples right!” 🤣🤣💀 that had me cracking up 😂
I like ryobi, I been using it for years. It never changes it battery platform and it’s affordable
For Mr Joe fix his own house with youtube videos, yes ryobi is good, but the only problem is when someone comes over your house you have to hide your tools so no one knows you have them
How many year can the ryobi battery use?
Love the videos you do! Personally I love Milwaukee the warranty is awesome!
Dewalt does make great bits and I use them in my M12/M18 tools.
Dang Nick you got me all fired up to get working!!!!Boom!!!!🤣👏
Let’s be honest makita lacks advertising. No wonder Milwaukee sells like crazy😅
They dont, but hell I don’t really care lmao. Their batteries last way longer than any of the other brands out there and are way more reasonably priced as opposed to Milwaukee and Ridgid.
Thanks for the Ryobi mention
TYVM for education and sharing!
