Makita has been always on the bottom regarding quality. It's popular only because they are "cheap". I have seen two drills melted down using holecutter , in one day. No torque , just rpm's. Hilti on the other hand is on the top.
Marshaltown are still on the top.
Tyzack still have some spirite left.
Refina are still in the race.
For the rest can't make a comment - don't have any of them

There crap, you'd be better spending another 200 to get a semi decent.
Mafell or festool if you want to go big

Nope the quality is not there anymore...
My makita 18v combi drill lasted 15 years.... the new ones are not lasting anywhere as near as long....
Companies seem to launch great tools early on then when they have a good rep start cutting corners....

Festool gear are nice, if you use it a lot it's probably worth it. Just tell your mate he needs to upgrade and you happy to buy his old one off of him for a bit of cash.

First ask yourself do i really need one ? or Would a half descent circular saw and guide rail do ? I ordered a plunge saw last year and sent it back unopened, I then went out and bought a descent circular saw and made a guide for it out of descent plywood. I could of stuck non-slip gear to the bottom but just use 2 speed clamps instead. Use good quality blades and, in all but a very few instances you can get the same results.

A good topic of conversation after a hard week of work and a few beers lol
doing alot of kitchens and doors lately. Yes i could manage with a circular saw but could also spend that Little more and get a plunge that can be used as a normal circular aswell.
