But my Craftsman has been good to me.

Started with a drill, reciprocal saw, circle saw and light. Added palm sander, air compressor and brad nailer along with two extra batteries.

That brad nailer is by new favorite toy. https://www.amazon.com/Craftsman-C3-19-2v-Brad-Nailer/dp/B00LOYC3VK?source=ps-sl-shoppingads-lpcontext&ref_=fplfs&psc=1&smid=AZNY9OO6RBMK8

It really speeds up a job and it has the most satisfying "THUNK" sound in my arsenal. If you are a DIYer, you know what I mean.

I have a bunch of nailers, but none of them are battery powered; they are all run off a compressor.

Porter Cable 23 GA pin nailer
Porter Cable 18 GA a brad nailer

Rigid 15 GA, which is a beast and good for door hanging.

My cordless platform is Ryobi, and I probably have over 50 Ryobi cordless tools.

I switch around when it comes to corded tools:

Skil circular saw
Milwaukee drill
Porter Cable reciprocating saw
Dewalt 5" random orbital sander
Old style blue Ryobi detail sander
Black and Decker mouse sander

Great for finish work.

Best thing that ever happened to power tools was getting unplugged....

Ryobi- drill, circular saw, sawz-all, nail gun, jigsaw (2024), Also a riding lawnmower with SLA batteries.
Hart (Walmart) - blower, weed wacker, lawnmower (2024)
Iworx - chainsaw (2), one with 10 ft pole attachment

I had a Porter Cable drill/driver for years until it wouldn't hold a charge. I also have a small Black and Decker driver for smaller jobs, since it's lighter than the Ryobi.

circular saw, drills, saws-all, have been buying Bauer from Harbor Freight. Purchased an adaptor so I can use 20 amp batteries that fit craftsman on a Bauer 1/2 drill & Bauer 1/4 & 1/2 inch impact drivers. Craftsman drill & 1.5 (I think) amp hour battery I gave away to a friend.

So, I have Craftsman for drills and the little skilsaw. (oh, those sales I couldn't pass up)
Ryobi for stuff I expect to break and replace (pole saw, small inverter, weed-whacker (1)
DeWalt when it matters. My "go to" 12 inch chain saw. (2)

(1) I wanted a pivotrim head because bump heads are trash in my book. So, the Ryobi bolt is some insane metric left-thread odd bolt head ... Long story short, I built out the bolt head with epoxy so the pivotrim fits (holding up still) and I use the three blade attachment where there are no rocks to kick (which is rare on my property, but does exist)

(2). I got a leaf blower for the cost of the 40 volt battery, so there.

P.S. The DeWalt chain saw has two big knobs to do what others do with two Allen wrenches, 1/32" different from each other and a giant pain in the ass to use (especially the chain tension). The first big knob removes or locks down the cover, and the second adjusts the chain tension. I can reseat a jumped chain or even replace one on the spot. The cover even has a ratchet to limit the locking force (like your gas cap!) And the chain doesn't jump that I recall. Maybe once. Oregon chain and guide.

It's so insanely easy to use. Highly recommended.

Years back, I bought a basic set of porter cable tools. They do just fine. I notice they aren’t the most prevalent in either Home Depot or lowes anymore so, I would advise to buy something else for that reason. However, the pride and joy of my collection are my assorted Festool tools.

I do a lot of woodworking in the kitchen of my apartment and dust collection is a serious consideration for me. If you have a saw, router, or a sander plugged into your vacuum cleaner for dust extraction purposes, do you really need for it to be cordless? Many of my tools are still corded for that reason.

Festool can get expensive, but you get what you pay for.

I have some Hilti, some Milwaukee, and some Ryobi. I never bought a bunch of tools all at once, only as I needed them or when they were on sale.

But, let's not get nuts! My power tools are a drill, a string strimer & a hedge trimmer!
My lawn mower is an EGO.
I'm willfully non-handy. Though, I did change my own headlight bulb yesterday!

Mower

String Trimmer

Blower

Snow blower

Ryobi hedge trimmer though.

...is still working fine & I just had a new carburetor put on 2 years ago.
When it needs work again, I'm getting the EGO snowblower.

Honestly Deb, it would be like me mowing my lawn in a pink Speedo.
