Everything I have is Makita and so far I haven't had to replace one battery or tool. I built a house last year (I'm in between contractor & do-it-yourselfer), had it framed & took it from there. I have their 18V cordless drill for probably four years or so & still works perfect. I also have their orbital sander, belt sander, jigsaw, and recip saw (all corded) and they have all been beaten to death but still work perfectly. The only non-Makita I own is a 12" slide miter that DeWalt makes...been impressed with that as well. The 18V Dewalt tools do leave a little to be desired if you ask me. Our shop went through two in three years, now on Makita stuff. Spend the money on a cordless drill, get the best one you can buy. You'll use that one tool more than just about anything besides a hammer.
