    No matter what level of effort you’ll be using… don’t get the Walmart brand. Yeah, they’re good for beginners and can handle the occasional weekend project. But even you don’t use them enough to wear them out, the other dads/men will make fun of you for having the hardware equivalent of velcro shoes from the dollar store.

    Honest answer: I started with DeWalt. Had issues. Went to Milwaukee. Never regretted it.

      We have those walmart brand equivalents in Germany, from supermarkets like Lidl, Norma and co…

      In my world, people who come to the task with a brand new, expensive Makita drill deserve way more mockery than people who come with a cheap, well used Lidl drill.
