Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best power tool brands for tool kits?

The best power tools kit will essentially come down to personal choice. With power tools, it does make sense to choose a brand manufacturer and stick with them. You won’t have to worry about different battery systems and all the other hassles from mixing tool brands.

It is important to note, however, there is no best brand. There is no one size fits all. No one brand contains the best power tools. What you love about one brand, may not be appreciated by your work mate. What’s more, one brand might make an incredible combi drill, while another brand might make the best reciprocating saw.

You’ll also find that there are some differences between the type of users certain tools are designed for. Some power tool brands are aimed at homeowner, where others are incredibly heavy-duty and aimed for professionals working on extreme construction sites.

There are, however, a number of brands that are highly respected amongst most professionals and keen DIYers, and for good reason. DeWalt, Makita, Metabo, Trend, Milwaukee, Hikoki and Bosch have all built up a reputation over the years and offer impressive power tool kits that our customers love.
