I know this is a 'personal' issue, much like the Chevy vs. Ford rivalry (or
should I say MG vs. Triumph?). However I suspect that there are some brands
you want to avoid and others you would put in the good/acceptable range. I
have the old Makita 9v system and have had good success with them for years.
Now it is time to buy for my son as a Christmas present. I would like a
system that will be around for years; one my son can add to with other
compatible tools as he sees fit. I figured that I'd poll this group first.
Some of the brands I've seen sold locally are: Makita, Skill, Black &
Decker, Ryobi, Ridgid, DeWalt, and Milwaukee; maybe more.
Suggestions?
