You're right, I tend to spend too much time thinking than actually purchasing something, I'm always worried what I buy will be subpar. I've tried Dewalt, Bosch, and Milwaukee and have returned all three sets at least once due to chuck wobble, or other things. I probably needed to hear this from...

Thanks for letting me know! I though maybe you HAD to buy it online, but if you can buy it in store that's cool. Do you think the LXT with 3.0AH batteries is too much if I'll just be using it on the weekends? I've read that if they batteries aren't drained and recharged they tend to brick, and...

Of course I still may buy the M18 combo. I do like that Milwaukee has a 5 year tool warranty and 2 year battery vs Makita's 3 year tool and 1 year battery. The fuel gauge on the Milwaukee is cool too. Only thing that worries me is the first review of this battery for makita. Many people claim...

So if I go with the Makita, as I think I will, should I get this combo with reciprocating saw: http://www.homedepot.com/p/t/203914699?catalogId=10053&langId=-1&storeId=10051&N=5yc1vZc2ecZyg&R=203914699#.UTlx8Rw3vQ0 Or get the cheaper combo, and the Milwaukee Sawzall...

Anyone know how that reciprocating saw of theirs is? Still not sure if I want the milwaukee just so I can get their sawzall.

Thanks for all the feedback guys. I think I've stumbled upon a great deal. Makita is giving away 1 free tool or battery with the purchase of a new LXT combo. I'm thinking of getting this one...

I'm a bit leary of Ridgid. It was my previous set and saw little use but both batteries went out quick. When I contacted their customer service they claimed I had not registered yet I vividly remember doing so and had my receipt still.

Which company do you guys think: 1) Makes the consistently best tools from top to bottom? 2) Has the best customer service?

I actually liked the feel of this one in store, but am worried about the power of the drill. Dewalt says it has 350 UWO, but what the hell is a UWO? I called Dewalt and they gave me some **** about how its a "more efficient way of calculating torque" and would not tell me the in/lbs.

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001DN1T6M/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Other than the 3.0ah batteries, what's the difference in this set compared to the one I originally linked? Would it be over kill for DIY?

I would only get the drill and impact cordless, everything else is will be corded. I'd also like to stick with 18V, the extra power is nice. Is it that big of deal to have 1.5ah batteries over 3.0ah for DIY? I would think 2 batyeries would fix this.

Looking to pick up a cordless drill and impact driver combo to do some projects next week. I'd like an impact that can drive 3" deck screws on occasion. Other than that nothing too extreme. I'd like to spend around $200 but can go over. After doing some quick research, it seems everyone...

Thankyou for clearing that up! I was worried.

Well I just found out something somewhat disturbing about the 181 models. Lowes, Amazon, Home Depot all say that these combos only come with a 1 year tool and 1 year battery warranty. This seems pretty piss poor compared to Dewalt, Milwuakee, Ridgid, and everyone else. I really like the combo...

So you guys don't think it's worth it to get the same drill with L-BOXX and get an impact later over the combo?
