Another DeWalt fan here. I'm sure the Milwaukees are just fine, but I =
bought into the platform. For regular around the house stuff Ryobi is =
surprisingly good, but they may not be at Menard's.=20

As for the 12v vs 18/20v stuff (I've read the 20v is really an 18v with =
extra marketing power), I had a 12v Black & Decker drill a long time =
ago, and liked it so much I replaced the batteries, and then the motor. =
Eventually the housing cracked and I moved to the 20v DeWalt. If I were =
just buying for general household, I'd choose a modern 18v Ryobi over a =
12v.=20
