Question by homehandyman07: Makita or Milwaukee Cordless Hammer Drill?
I’m in the market for a new cordless hammer drill. Having read dozens of reviews and opinions, I’ve narrowed it down t either the:
- Makita 18V Li-ion 3 spd, or the
- Milwaukee 18V Li-ion 2 spd.
Which is better cordless drill…for regular trade use in tasks ranging from carpentry to small structural projects? Is the build quality similar?

  1. ALWAYS spend a little more for the best–only because you never know what future jobs will come up and you wish you had the bigger equipment. You get what you pay for—and NEVER lend them out to anyone.

  2. both are crappy, now,, Makita was bought by Black and Decker I believe, neither is worth what it was years ago, when the name ment something,,,

    I would still go with Makita, just because Lowes and Home Depot carry more stuff,

    check on Ebay for deals,

  3. Milwaukee in long run.Good Hammer drill hard to find but you found one. Have had one 7y now an still going strong.
