Got the 301, identical specs and all, cant find any differences. Today i used it for the first time, to change all 4 wheels on my cargovan. Previously used a Ryobi for these jobs and frequently had trouble loosening some bolts/nuts and was hard to get them tightened evenly, plus it unscrewed them at full speed which wasnt very nice.. The Makita fixed all those problems, loosened all without problems or delay at setting 3 (it stops when the bolt is loosened then goes on to screw it out at low speed) and tightened first at setting 1, then at setting 2, perfect! No risk of bolts coming loose, no risk of overtightening. Checked with a regular wrench and Yes, it was perfect indeed. Will never buy anything else than Makita, they know what is important, the few but supersmart features made this the fastest and easiest change of wheels ever.
I think they're the same except for the 1/2" head, they both have 1/2" heads but one has a knob and the other a hole I think, one of them holds the socket better
This is the same as US model XWT14Z. DTW300 is not available in Canada. I had to get one from the states. Has excellent build quality and many advanved electronic control features. Love Makita because they do what they do in style and dont get caught up in the strongest or most powerful competitions like a lot of youtubers try to do.
I'm torn between this and the DTW700 will be used on vehicle maintenance, anyone used both or found that this one is a bit lacking ? the 700 is only an extra £65
@@rohanpinto79 went with the dtw700 it’s great and will last forever , it has enough grunt to remove pretty much anything off a car but is also still small enough to get it into tight spaces it’s the perfect medium
To those worried about "Made in China", don't...! Makita tool's been made in many different countries for a long time now so one cannot argue they are made here, or there, both here and there would be more accurate. But it's not like the Chinese themselves designed something truly crappy and pushing the limits for cheap raw materials and design just to maximize profits and show them too can be great business men, yeah sure take away 95% of the quality and rigorous testing by the Japanese at home soild and then sell for 70% of the cost, sound real cheap and they look about the same, what's the problem right? Problem is massive, Chinese no name brands should not make them period, by the real deal Makita can be found pretty cheap even here in the EU looking at the right spots and we know they have proper quality control of anything from raw materials to finished tool don't worry about "Made in China". Absolutely worry though about buying some cheap China knock off crap that had no quality controls at all instead.
@@TenaciousL333 the china stuff is alright i have the xdt13 made in china still going strong done a few wheel lugs blasts and suspension and shocker jobs on cars still working strong

I bought one 2 years ago, made in Thailand. Then another a few months ago, made in China. Both exactly the same. No problem.

Yes, the DTW300XVZ is available in Canada as of this date,..July 2021 I just ordered one.

Did you decide between the two? I too am in a similar dilemma.

@@danijel124 are you happy with it? any problems?
Apparently if you keep blipping the trigger before you use it. ...... yup you got it.....it wears it out faster.
Yep, it's really good - when you press the trigger, it works. Wow.
