I am planning on buying my grandfather a set of cordless power tools for Christmas. He does alot of carpentry work and has very little patients so they’d have to be powerful & work well. I’ve narrowed my list down to 2 kits… The V28 Milwaukee set and the 36 volt DeWalt kit. I looked at the specs on both kits and the tools included and saw that the V28 Milwaukee’s have the same power as the 36 volt DeWalts. Um, why? Anyway, I think I’m going for the Milwaukee’s because I think they have a better reputation. I’d like to get a few suggestions so please give me one…. Thanx.

i think you’ll find ones with cords are more powerful
my father has alot of Dewalts tools and he STILL has his fathers sander thats good over 30yrs old
and it still works like its brand new.
i’d do with the DeWalts.
The “RYOBI” series that’s available at any home depot is pretty powerful. They take care of all the job i have to do around the house and come with a flashlight!
Check your local Home Depot and the price: just around 150$ and you get about 6 different tools, like a sawz-all, drill, circular saw, flashlight, and sander.
The Milwaukee warranty is far better.
Both are name brands but my preferance would be Dewalt. I am a real fan of Big Yellow. These are premium priced tools. Make sure you get Li-Po batteries and the Li-Po charger. Do not think you can substitute another charger or a fire could result. This website might give you some info
I would definitely go with the milwaukee. I own both and the milwaukee out performs the dewalt in every way.
