    I’ve been pretty happy with the Ryobi 18 and 40 volt stuff. If I ever need anything fancier I’ll probably start investing in milwaukee. At some point I plan to invest into a tool storage system and milwaukee may win that decision…

    For corded stuff, brand loyalty isn’t that useful. I have a dewalt portable/job site table saw I really like.

    My jigsaw and circular saw are skil, so I could probably stand to upgrade, but they work well enough.

    Just bought a kobalt powered screwdriver that uses usbc to charge and seems fine for household use (when a drill driver is not needed)

    Still have an old dewalt drill on a dead battery platform that refuses to die.

      If you’re looking for a solid storage system, check out toughbuilt or flex. As someone with the rare experience in several different mobile tool chests, flex and toughbuilt kick the hell out of the packout. I run the toughbuilt stacktech myself, and it’s got everything I could have hoped for. Tough as hell, metal corners, waterproof, no fumbling to lock or unlock pieces as they connect automatically, and they’re a good bit cheaper to boot.
