10 best power tool manufacturers
For industrial purposes
Festool
Everyone who has dealt with the Festool tool is unlikely to speak badly of their reliability. We personally worked with a disk mill, with which we have successfully milled aluminum composite plates for more than a year. The ideal quality of work, nothing to complain about. Otherwise, the power tool is prohibitively expensive, so it is suitable only for industrial purposes, the construction business, where it quickly recaptures its value.
By the way, Protool, whose instrument is also expensive but high quality, shares the first place along with Festul!
Milwaukee
American manufacturer of high quality tools. The business card of this company is black and red colors. As in the case of Festul, you will have to overpay for a reliable American power tool, but it's worth it. In the line of devices there are quite a few interesting models that you will not meet with other manufacturers.
Hilti
Hilti closes our rating of the best manufacturers of industrial tools. Both consumables and power tools are of high quality, but also at an appropriate price. Personally, we did not encounter Hilti, but judging by the reviews on the Internet, the products fully justify their money and buying it makes sense only for money, you can even say business.
Professionals
Makita
The first place in this class is rightly occupied by the Japanese manufacturer of power tools - the Makita company, which has been confidently leading the market for quite some time. The reason for this is excellent reliability indicators and at the same time an affordable price. A wide range of products allows you to choose the right tool not only for professional use, but also for domestic needs (periodic repairs).
Bosch
Another well-known manufacturer that specializes not only in power tools, but also in general on household appliances. Bosch, by the way, is also one of top dishwasher manufacturers.
Returning to the tool, I would like to note that for professional purposes you need to choose blue devices that are specifically designed for long-term use. In addition, blue screwdrivers, punchers, etc. have higher technical characteristics.In terms of reliability and price, the Bosch tool is optimal, so we recommend choosing it for work.
Dewalt
The American company DeWalt was included in our rating, because the reliability of the power tool from this manufacturer has declared itself on the positive side. The only thing that far from everywhere you will find yellow-black screwdrivers and punchers is because of the higher cost, although it fully justifies itself.
Nevertheless, if you want to choose a quality tool for work, for comparison, pick up a model from DeWalt and any other Japanese counterpart. You will feel the result.
Metabo
A brand that is no less recognizable in the instrument market. German quality and reasonable price (slightly above average) won the hearts of many professional installers. Nevertheless, due to the higher cost, Metabo loses to its competitors, because the technical characteristics of the products are not better than Bosch or Makita, but nonetheless, everyone has their own preferences.
If you get a good screwdriver or a Metabo hammer drill at a discount, you can safely buy. Quality is guaranteed, as you can see by reading the relevant reviews on thematic forums.
Hitachi
Another Japanese manufacturer of power tools, which, of course, must be present in the ranking of the best companies for professional use. We draw your attention to the fact that recently there have been a lot of negative reviews about the quality of Hitachi tools, as well as problems with warranty workshops by manufacturers.
We can’t say anything about this, we’ve personally been using Hitachi for several years now and there are no complaints about the work. Moreover, the Hitachi DS12DVF3 screwdriver has already fallen about a dozen times and thanks to its rubberized case is still alive, even the handle has not cracked. That is why we strongly recommend it to those who have decided choose a screwdriver for work and home.
Also, brands such as AEG and Kress can be attributed to the best manufacturers of professional power tools, but due to the fact that they are in low demand, and we ourselves did not exploit them, it is difficult to say something definite. If you have experience and opinions about these brands, you can tell us more about them in the comments under the post, or on our electricians forum.
Home craftsmen
Bocsh
Yes, we were not mistaken, Bosch got one more rating - power tools for home use. Screwdrivers, drills, etc. green colors are much cheaper and better than alternative budget products. If you need accessories for home repairs, we recommend that you overpay a bit and buy Bosch, rather than products from other inexpensive manufacturers, which we talk about below.
Interskol
Every year, the domestic manufacturer of power tools raises its bar of quality to a higher level. Already even on the popular Yandex.Market, you can find many models from Interskol with a rating of 5 out of 5, while with a bunch of positive reviews not only from handymen, but also from experts. At a relatively budget price, the quality of Interskol is average, so if you do not find a suitable Bosch, you can support a local manufacturer.
We recommend using these two companies of semi-professional power tools for home use, as in confidence. There are still budget brands Bort, BLACK & DECKER, Ryobi, Skil and Bison, but there are too many negative reviews about the quality of this product, so we don’t want to advise you. You can, of course, come across really successful models that last for several years, but this is rather the exception, so see for yourself here.
So we have provided a list of the best manufacturers of power tools. We hope you enjoyed our rating and it helped you in choosing the right company for your own conditions of use!
Interesting topic:
Skill is now a Bosch division, with all that it implies. Pay special attention to models that have no analogues in Bosko, like network screwdrivers. Extremely decent machine, albeit the most expensive in a pile class. Now the Fiolent is definitely added to the lower two ratings. Not all, but ... The puncher survived four brush changes, which is not always the case with the Hilty. A quite good furrower, better than the Boshevsky blue, which is smaller, while ten times cheaper than Hilti. And just wonderful grinders, especially with the letter E at the end of the designation, which means protecting the anchor from overload and instant shutdown when the disk is wedged. The difference in price with a simple one is somewhere around three unbroken disks, which happens and will pay off in a day. And how calm you feel, not convey. In the red - such a bardardo will wildly lose momentum and be chopped off with a shitty quality of current in the network. Jigsaws are not so much accurate in a cut, as tenacious, in fact, a reciprocating saw in the wrong case. In short, the shtrunts will pay for their value, but for the earning tool, and not the cutting tool, this is important.
I used the KRESS tool for many years, the perfect technique., The price is not high, but the quality is off scale. Features exceed top brands. There was a perfite makita 3.3kg-weight, 2.7j-hit, price-12450r. Perf craz 2.7kg-weight, 3.2j-hit, 6800r. Besides, Makita was smoking in the second year. And Kres served for 6 years until one good person steal. The Bulgarian has been plowing for the seventh year already. For the third year already, the perfection with the large ads-max shank has nothing to do with it. Draw conclusions. But there is one minus the company was removed from production and what should not be bought.
Is the price at KRESS not high? A screwdriver for 20 sput ... Hmm ... although the quality, of course, is up to par.
Oh I don’t know, I don’t know! Makita can easily compete with Hilti so much so that Fistula and Milwaukee will be left far behind!
Hilti on industrial does not pull in any way, Fein is another matter.
Interskol sucks.
Interskolovskiy and Violetovskiy machines do an excellent job with one-time work, without a single complaint for over ten years. In addition, it is better to give out something to the workers at the construction site, this is a crime against their money.
I really like the Smolensk instrument Diold. A grinder, a puncher, a grinder are in no way inferior to foreign ones in quality, but they win significantly in price. In any case, the Smolensk Bulgarian in my opinion is definitely better than the Interskol.
I work with the electric BOSH PST700, 1998 release, just not killed! The tool is household, green. Brushes are even native. Once two or three times the wire broke off and that's all the damage. It's scary to look at it, I'm tired of it, it works!
Bosch perfs are definitely better than Makita - they convinced their own hands, I didn’t try a Bosch jigsaw thing either, so I won’t lie, Bosch screwdriver for 14 volt fairy tale (worse hitters) .In my opinion, they put Bosch in vain after makita, I’m talking like a person for more than 25 years pens checked the quality.
I got a Hitachi puncher after chasing, 4 cottages (water and heating). Changed the barrel, enough for 2 more objects. For the price paid off. If only for home, probably for life. But for work he took Hilty.
the perforation, as it were, is not intended purely for shtrobling in hitachi; lubricant enters only if there is a rotation; I work as a foreman myself, it’s better not to have makita, especially if the workers change and jam-shoud come across. Hitachi is more powerful.
Flex is gorgeous, but practically nonexistent. Steeper than Milwaukee and the price is adequate. And better than polishing them in nature does not exist.
Interskol, say, there was a drill-puncher, it was enough for several holes, the head fell into pieces under the drill, and while it was alive, it was necessary to constantly tighten it, in general, “Ga-no” and not a tool !!!
Makita recently not satisfied. The chain saw is disgusting! Everything is plastic in it, even tire fasteners. Oil does not hold, the tire steers up constantly. The screwdriver after two years stopped holding the charge, enough for an hour of work. Is that the punch is still alive and happy.
Bosch against the background of Makita looks much more reliable. In any case, all the available Bosch works like a clock, although it would seem that it should have died for a long time from old age.
Interskol - complete rubbish. My father has a circular saw of this brand. Yes, she has a good engine that has been living for many years. But the whole body crumbled, backlash by half a centimeter, and the sole led so that you can forget about direct cuts.
Sparky has also proven itself quite well. Quite pleased with his small hand plane.
Festul and Protul are one and the same office, if that, only after rebranding.
Hitachi impeller saws tiles without chips, because there is generally no vibration.
