Festool just looks like an overpriced piece of crap! Should have named it PaperWay. So people get a better idea of what it's actually good for. A paper weight for over $500

As someone who uses my battery tools daily, I started out with Ryobi years ago because of the price. When those started breaking down and getting old, I bought the Kobalt XTR brand because I found a ridiculous deal on a massive set and because the batteries were so cheap. I was initially very impressed with the XTR brand as a whole, as they're quiet, smooth and powerful when new. Unfortunately they just aren't durable. I went through a drill per year for various reasons (chucks always locked up, randomly not working, giving only a flashing light when you press the trigger, etc. Both the hacksaw and sawzall's motors burned out, and the plunge cutter (oscillating tool) seemed, over time, to transfer the movement from the blade to the tool itself. It got louder and louder, vibrated like mad, but would cut through nothing. I finally switched to Milwaukee. The initial price was a bit of a shock, but I played it smart and got it all around Christmas, went online for deals, etc. The money was well spent. Every one of the tools performs with no issues, every time. The batteries charge very quickly and last forever, operation is smooth and very powerful. Doing what I do, it was stupid to attempt the cheap tools, but it's very hard to switch once you're invested in a platform. In short, if your tools are going to be put through a daily grind, spend the extra and get the good stuff. Milwaukee, DeWalt, and Makita all seem to stand the rest of time. Don't worry about fan boys of any of them. Whichever of those you can get cheapest to start with, you'll be happy with. For occasional to moderate usage, Ryobi and Kobalt work well. I'd actually advise anyone who doesn't have great trigger control to get one of the cheaper drills for home usage. The big 3, as shown here, don't do very low torque well, so you can easily strip screws and mess up delicate work if you can't moderate by feel. Those of us who use them daily take for granted how in tune we are with our tools, until we watch someone with zero experience give it a go. For those without that feel, the cheaper tools with the ability to set torque to almost zero will be easier to use. Sorry for the long comment, but hopefully it helps someone make a decision somewhere down the line.

I did assembly work at GE three years ago. We did a great deal of fastening; the company tools were Milwaukee 18V but could be scarce. Some fellows brought in their own DeWalts, Makitas, Ryobis, Craftsman, etc. The Milwaukees ALWAYS ran without trouble in that industrial setting, lasting about 2 years each with very heavy use. The batteries didn’t always get used properly, yet lasted a year or so with uneven charge/discharge cycles. All the other brands, most also 18V, died in 3-6 months. Lesson learned, but a Milwaukee once; everything else, replace more frequently.

Well not necessarily. Some of them their promises hold true, but the question can be "for how long"? Some of the cheap branded ones for example may be more powerful than the $500 ones, in the beginning, but you have to ask yourself, how long will this no-name/cheaper drill last. How long will the battery last? Things like that. So they can make claims, and sometimes they are true... for a period of time at least. I personally would recommend the MIlwaukee's as mine has suffered about 4 falls so far from a second story roof. STill going strong. I did have to replace one battery pack the broke open though, but that was the battery, but the drill is still going strong now in its 5th year...

I watch them weather I'm interested in buying that or not

I have many of Bauer's tool lineup. Especially considering how cheap all the tools are, what you get for your money is pretty impressive. As long as you don't stomp the tools too hard for too long they do pretty well. I use my tools for vehicle maintenance/repairs for my truck and my wife's car as well as occasional jobs around the house, like more recently fixing my dryer. When I first bought the Bauer impact driver, I used it to replace the studs on my truck. Despite the job being a little too demanding, it still managed to get it done, it just took longer, but it worked all until the very end when it burnt out and stopped working entirely. I brought it back to harbor freight and they gave me a new one since I had just purchased it, so everything worked out just fine. To be fair though, it was definitely worst case scenario, it was sitting in the sunlight for hours, 105+ degrees outside, with constant demand as I used it to drive the new studs in my truck, and some other repairs as well. I swapped batteries once or twice too, it got no breaks. Overall, pretty decent option if you don't wanna spend too much money and you're not looking to do anything too extreme. It doesn't have enough power to free a brake caliper bolt or replace wheel studs reliably, but for the average person it'll get the job done. I plan on upgrading to Milwaukee in a few years, but I'm definitely gonna hold onto all my Bauer tools as well. Having a cheap backup set of tools to keep around the house won't hurt. Here's a list of all the Bauer tools I have, although I may be forgetting some since I'm writing this off the top of my head: Impact driver, hammer drill, portable fan, LED work light, leaf blower, vacuum, heavy duty impact wrench, dual power tire inflator If you're looking to buy a drill and the opinion of a stranger on the internet means anything to you, I would urge you to stay away from the Hyper Tough brand Walmart sells. I bought one of those before I found Bauer, and it's so weak that it's embarrassing. It can barely even drive a screw into a piece of drywall, and I recall the battery needing recharged/replaced every 5-10 minutes or so. You may as well just buy hand tools at that point, or spend a little more and get Bauer or shell out a lot more cash for something truly quality like DeWalt, Milwaukee or Makita.

Just check out, the second hand prices prices. That will tell everything. The main problem, this Festool unit is 10-12 year modell. Its released by Protool and after its discontinoued as brand Festool introduce couple of old Protool tools with Festool branding as a new tool. This is what happend this Festool drill as well. Festool released a new drill in April, and its a nice upgrade, it would be perform somewhere between Dewalt, and Milwaukee. The routers, domino, mitre saws, orbital sanders, jigsaw is all superior. From my view point, they'r products is placed for bigger manufacture companies, where the cost of the instruments is not as important, as the productivity. Their tools always very easy to adjust, and always trust on the factory settings. Warranty is also nice, 3 year and its cover the wearing parts as well (most of time its not) and for 3 years your tool is secured by Festool. If somebody stole it from your workshoop or from yout van/truck, you can get a new one, for very reasonable price. (Around 150$ where the kits of value usually trending between 500-1500$) Their tools is not for everyone, and you can get the job done with other tools as well, but they'r had some advantages even the higher price.

Festool is really expensive because it is made to run extremely smooth and be very durable. Every tool in their line up is underpowered because of that. It is made for craftsmen who want the very best most accurate tools. Yet I do not see the value personally. It is only slightly more accurate and in a few years you will want the next best thing anyway

Yet another thumbs up! You have a new subscriber! Years ago, I purchased a Harbor Freight Chicago electric 18 V ni- cad cordless drill. That sucker lasted me two years, using it nearly 6 days a week on average. I’ve yet to see any brand last longer! It also lasted longer between charges! 10 bucks! Before my dad retired, he bought a harbor freight carbide tip sawblade, and tested the hardness against a better quality regular steel blade. The harness was about the same! It pays to be careful before you by less expensive tools! However, it proves that your test are invaluable. Thanks again!

A heavily underrated factor is the preciseness, linearity, and fine-step-ness of the trigger itself. I have an old bosch screwdriver/drill, and I find pressing the trigger can jerk the spin speed from slow to fast where it can be hard to get inbetween. I want a silky smooth, stepless action for the trigger, where I can effortlessly squeeze it, and it won't instantly go from slow to fast unexpectedly.

All that aside, what all "silent" compressors seems to have in common that helps identify them and differs from "standard" ones is the same kind of motor. It's cylindrical and rather compact, as opposed to most compressors which have a hump sticking out. They may have 2 or even more of these motors side by side as you go up in tank size.
