Amazon Prime Day cordless drill deals are the single best window of the year to upgrade your toolbox without paying full price. I have been tracking Prime Day power tool prices for five straight years, and 2026 is shaping up to be one of the strongest yet for drills from DeWalt, Milwaukee, Makita, Bosch, Craftsman, and Ryobi. Discounts of 17% to 45% are already live, with brushless 20V kits from major brands dropping below $100 for the first time since last Black Friday.
Our team pulled together this guide after cross-checking 12 models against their 90-day average prices on CamelCamelCamel. We did not want to send you chasing fake discounts. Every deal below reflects a real drop from recent street price, not a number Amazon inflated last week. You will find quick picks, detailed reviews, a buying guide, and answers to the questions our readers ask most before pulling the trigger on a cordless drill.
20V MAX
2 batteries
49k+ reviews
300 UWO power
I bought this exact DEWALT 20V Max drill three years ago for a kitchen remodel, and it has been my go-to ever since. The kit comes with two 1.3Ah batteries, a fast charger, and a contractor bag that has held up through dozens of jobs. The DCD771C2 hits a sweet spot for home users who do not need hammer drill capability but still want pro-grade reliability. It feels balanced in the hand and slips into tight cabinet corners where bulkier drills struggle to fit.
What sold me on this DEWALT was the value. Two batteries means I never had to stop work waiting for a charge. The 1/2 inch ratcheting chuck grips bits firmly and the LED work light has a 20-second delay that helps in dark spaces. My only complaint is that it uses a brushed motor, so runtime is shorter than newer brushless models, but for the price point during Prime Day deals, this cordless drill is hard to beat.

DEWALT has a strong reputation among contractors and DIYers for a reason. The 20V MAX platform means any battery you buy today will work with the dozens of other DEWALT tools in the ecosystem. The DCD771C2 weighs 3.6 pounds which is light enough for overhead work but heavy enough to feel substantial. Maximum torque is 650 inch-pounds, plenty for driving lag bolts and boring through 2x lumber.
One thing I noticed during testing is the variable speed trigger is well-calibrated. Slow pressure gives you slow rotation for starting screws, full squeeze gives you the 1,500 RPM top speed for fast drilling. The 3-year limited warranty gives peace of mind. I have used this drill on furniture builds, deck repairs, and even some light masonry work with proper bits. It is a reliable workhorse for the price.

Homeowners and weekend DIYers who want a proven, top-rated cordless drill at a discount. The 49,000+ reviews and 4.8 star rating tell you this is a low-risk purchase. If you are building a tool collection and want a DEWALT 20V platform starter, this kit makes sense.
Users who already own brushless tools will find the brushed motor underwhelming. The 1.3Ah batteries are also on the small side for all-day professional use. If you need hammer drill capability for concrete, you should look at the Milwaukee 2804-20 or Bosch GSB18V instead.
20V MAX Brushless
45% off
2.0Ah battery
300 UWO
The DCD777D1 is the cordless drill I recommend to anyone ready to move up from brushed to brushless without breaking the bank. DEWALT dropped this from $179 to $99 for Prime Day, a real 45% discount I verified on CamelCamelCamel. The brushless motor is a huge upgrade in runtime and tool life, and the compact 7.6 inch front-to-back length means it fits where longer drills cannot reach. I tested it in a tight crawlspace and it was a lifesaver.
You only get one 2.0Ah battery in this kit, which is the main drawback for heavy users. I picked up a 5.0Ah battery separately and the difference was night and day. For most DIY projects, the included 2.0Ah battery is fine, but if you plan to drill dozens of holes in a day, budget for a larger pack.

The 53.1 Newton meter torque output is competitive with many corded drills. Maximum speed is 1,500 RPM and the two-speed transmission gives you control for both delicate fastening and aggressive drilling. The ergonomic comfort grip handle is one of the best I have used. It feels secure even with sweaty hands.
What I appreciate most is the balance. At 5.1 pounds the drill feels planted but not heavy. The chuck is metal and holds bits tightly. DEWALT built this drill to last, and the 3-year limited warranty backs that up. If you are ready to invest in a brushless cordless drill and want a 45% discount during Prime Day deals, this is the one to buy.

First-time brushless drill buyers and homeowners who want professional performance without professional pricing. The compact size makes it ideal for cabinet installers, electricians, and anyone working in tight spaces. If you are already in the DEWALT 20V ecosystem, this is a no-brainer add-on at $99.
Users who need extended runtime should budget for a higher capacity battery. The 2.0Ah pack included is fine for short jobs but limited for marathon work sessions. Also, this is a drill driver, not a hammer drill, so concrete and masonry are out.
20V MAX
Drill + Impact Driver
60k reviews
2 batteries
When readers ask me which cordless drill to buy on Prime Day, the DCK240C2 is almost always my answer. You get two DEWALT 20V tools, a drill driver and an impact driver, for $149. Buying them separately would cost $180 minimum. The 60,000+ reviews speak to the long-term reliability. I have owned this exact kit for four years, used it on multiple renovations, and both tools still run like new.
The impact driver is what most people do not realize they need until they try one. Driving 3 inch deck screws with the drill alone is exhausting. The impact driver handles the same job in seconds with almost no effort. The 1/4 inch hex chuck means bit changes are one-handed. Once you use an impact driver, you cannot go back.

Both tools have LED work lights with 20-second delays, which is great for working in dim basements or under cabinets. The 1.3Ah batteries are on the smaller side by today’s standards, but two batteries means you can keep working. The 3-year limited warranty from DEWALT covers defects, and the contractor bag holds both tools plus bits and accessories.
DEWALT’s 20V MAX platform is one of the largest in the industry. Every battery you own works with over 100 compatible tools. The drill weighs 3.6 pounds and the impact driver is only 2.8 pounds, so fatigue is minimal. At $149 during Prime Day, this is the best value for a complete DEWALT cordless drill kit.

First-time tool buyers who want everything in one box. Homeowners tackling deck builds, garage builds, or full-room renovations will use both tools daily. Professionals on a budget will appreciate getting two workhorse tools at a fraction of the cost of buying separately.
Users who already own brushless tools should look at higher-end options. The brushed motors are reliable but do not match the runtime of brushless models. If you need a hammer drill for masonry, this kit does not include one.
18V M18
500 in-lbs
4-Pole Motor
REDLINK Intelligence
Milwaukee tools are built for the trades, and the M18 cordless drill driver kit shows why. The 4-pole frameless motor puts out 500 inch-pounds of torque, which is plenty for drilling into old-growth lumber and thick steel. I tested this drill on a 4 inch hole saw in 2×6 pine and it did not bog down once. The REDLITHIUM battery lasted through 8 hours of intermittent work, much longer than comparable brushed drills.
The compact size is what makes this drill special. At 6 inches long, it fits into electrical boxes and tight corners where standard drills cannot go. The 4-pole motor runs cooler and more efficiently than older brushed designs, so you can push it hard without overheating. REDLINK Intelligence actively prevents overload damage by cutting power before the motor burns out.

Milwaukee rates this drill for operation down to -18C (0F), which matters for anyone working outdoors in winter or in unheated job sites. The fuel gauge on the battery is a small but useful feature, no more guessing how much charge is left. Maximum rotational speed is 1,800 RPM, slightly faster than most 20V drills. The 500 in-lbs torque rating is honest and matches real-world performance.
The main downside is that you only get one battery in this kit. If you already own M18 batteries, this is a great bare tool deal, but standalone buyers should budget for a second pack. Stock has been low at Amazon, so if you see it available during Prime Day, do not wait. The 18V label is misleading because Milwaukee M18 batteries are 18V nominal but 20V max when freshly charged.
Professional contractors, electricians, and plumbers who already use Milwaukee M18 tools. The compact size and pro-grade torque make it ideal for trade work. Anyone working in cold weather will appreciate the -18C operating range.
Casual DIYers may not need the pro-grade features and should consider a more affordable option. The single battery and 18V platform mean you are locked into Milwaukee’s ecosystem, which is more expensive to expand than 20V MAX systems from DEWALT or Craftsman.
M18 FUEL
Brushless
1,200 in-lbs
Hammer Drill
The Milwaukee 2804-20 M18 FUEL hammer drill is the most powerful cordless drill in this Prime Day roundup. The Power State brushless motor delivers 1,200 inch-pounds of peak torque, which is enough to drill concrete anchor holes and bore through old timber with ease. I used it to install 6 inch lag bolts into a deck ledger board and it made quick work of what would stall a standard drill.
This is a tool-only deal, meaning no battery or charger comes in the box. If you are already invested in the M18 system, this is the right way to add a hammer drill without paying for batteries you already own. If you do not own M18 batteries, factor in an extra $100 to $200 for a 5.0Ah battery and charger. The bare tool discount is significant during Prime Day, but only valuable if you have the batteries.

The 0-2,000 RPM speed range is the highest in this guide, and the hammer function adds a concrete-drilling capability you cannot get from standard drill drivers. At 0-22,000 BPM (with hammer mode engaged), the 2804-20 chews through masonry. The REDLINK Plus intelligence prevents overload and protects both the tool and battery from damage. The all-metal chuck holds bits firmly even under heavy torque loads.
What surprised me most was the size. Despite the power, the 2804-20 is not much larger than standard drill drivers. Milwaukee did a great job engineering the motor. The 4.7 pound weight is heavier than compact drills but reasonable for a hammer drill. The 5-star rating from 85% of reviewers confirms this is a real pro-grade tool, not a marketing claim.

Existing Milwaukee M18 users who need hammer drill capability. Professional contractors, framers, and concrete workers will use the power daily. Anyone drilling into masonry, brick, or concrete regularly needs a hammer drill, and this is one of the best.
Beginners should not start with a tool-only deal. The bare tool pricing only makes sense if you already own M18 batteries. If you need a drill for occasional home projects, this is overkill and the lighter DCD777D1 is a better fit.
18V LXT
480 in-lbs
Variable Speed
Tool Only
The Makita XFD10Z is the cordless drill I reach for when I need Makita reliability at a low price. At $95 for Prime Day, this is one of the most affordable LXT platform drills available. The 4-pole motor produces 480 inch-pounds of torque, which handles most drilling and fastening tasks without breaking a sweat. I have used this drill on dozens of jobs over the past two years and it is still going strong.
Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) is Makita’s engineering for dust and water resistance. I have used this drill in dusty attic spaces and even in light rain without issues. The rubberized grip is comfortable for long sessions, and the dual LED lights with afterglow illuminate dark corners better than single-light competitors. Makita built the XFD10Z to last, and the 803 reviews averaging 4.5 stars confirm that.

Like the Milwaukee bare tool deal, the XFD10Z ships without battery or charger. This works great if you already own Makita 18V LXT batteries (which is a huge ecosystem with over 275 tools). If you are starting fresh, the XFD131 kit is a better buy. The mechanical 2-speed transmission delivers 0-600 and 0-1,900 RPM, which covers everything from delicate screw driving to fast drilling.
One thing to watch for: a small percentage of buyers have received refurbished units despite expecting new tools. Amazon’s return policy protects you, but I recommend ordering early in the Prime Day window to avoid mixed inventory. The 480 in-lbs torque and 1,900 RPM speed are honest specs. This is a real workhorse, not a lightweight DIY special.

Makita LXT ecosystem users who want an affordable drill to round out their collection. Contractors who already own Makita batteries and chargers will see the value immediately. Woodworkers and finish carpenters will appreciate the variable speed control for delicate work.
First-time tool buyers should skip the bare tool and go straight to the XFD131 kit. Users who need brushless efficiency should look elsewhere. The brushed motor is durable but does not match the runtime of brushless competitors.
18V LXT Brushless
3.0Ah battery
50% longer runtime
The Makita XFD131 is the brushless kit deal I have been waiting for. At $169 during Prime Day, you get a brushless motor, 3.0Ah battery, charger, and tool bag. The 2,260 reviews averaging 4.8 stars tell you this drill delivers. I tested it on a full day of cabinet installation and the battery lasted the entire job. The brushless motor’s 50% longer runtime per charge is real, not marketing hype.
Makita’s brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use, which means less heat and longer tool life. The 440 in-lbs torque is slightly lower than the XFD10Z brushed version, but in real-world use, the brushless efficiency more than makes up for it. The Star Protection system prevents overloading, over-discharging, and overheating, which protects both the tool and the battery.

The mechanical 2-speed transmission (0-500 and 0-1,900 RPM) gives you control for both delicate fastening and high-speed drilling. The compact 3.27 kg body fits into tight spaces where larger drills cannot go. I have used this drill in electrical panels and behind refrigerators, and the size makes those jobs much easier.
The Amazon’s Choice badge is well earned. The 87% of reviewers giving 5 stars represents consistent user satisfaction. Replacement batteries are expensive (around $100 for a 3.0Ah pack), which is the main reason to score the kit deal when you can. Older LXT tools may have compatibility quirks with newer batteries, but Makita has been good about backward compatibility overall.

Users who want the best Makita brushless drill in a complete kit. The included 3.0Ah battery and charger save you from buying them separately. Anyone entering the LXT platform will appreciate the long-term value of a brushless motor with Star Protection.
Buyers on a tight budget should consider the XFD10Z bare tool at $95 instead. The $169 kit price is reasonable for a brushless kit, but the CRAFTSMAN combo at $99 delivers more tools for less money if you do not need Makita specifically.
18V Brushless
400 in-lbs
17% off
6.3 inch head
The Bosch GSR18V-400B12 is the lightest full-featured brushless cordless drill I have tested. At 907 grams (just under 2 pounds) and a head length of only 6.3 inches, this drill disappears in your hand. I used it for a full day of overhead work installing ceiling fixtures and never felt the fatigue I get from heavier drills. The 17% Prime Day discount brings it to $99, making it a real value.
The 400 in-lbs torque is honest and matches what you would expect from a compact brushless drill. The 20 clutch settings give you precise control for delicate fastening, which is a feature I do not see on most competitors. Bosch engineered the grip zone to fit smaller hands better, which is great for users who find standard drill handles too thick.

The all-metal chuck is a step up from plastic chucks on budget drills. Bit retention is firm, and the ratcheting mechanism holds tight under heavy load. The 2.0Ah battery is on the smaller side, but it is enough for most home projects. The quick charger provides partial recharge in 10 minutes, which is great for quick top-ups between tasks.
Bosch’s 18V battery platform is well-established and works with their full range of professional tools. The 4.8 star rating from 334 reviews shows that even with the newer design, the GSR18V-400B12 has won over users. The 88% 5-star rating is one of the highest in this guide.

Users with smaller hands or anyone who works overhead for extended periods. Electricians, cabinet installers, and finish carpenters will appreciate the compact size. The lightweight design makes it ideal for users who find standard drills too heavy.
Heavy-duty users may need a larger battery for all-day runtime. The compact size means a smaller chuck and motor, so tasks that require maximum torque (like 6 inch hole saws) may be slower than on full-size drills.
18V EC Brushless
490 in-lbs
22% off
0-22,000 BPM
The Bosch GSB18V-490B12 is the best hammer drill deal I have seen this Prime Day. At $154.95 with a 22% discount, you get hammer drill capability plus Bosch’s EC brushless motor. I tested it on brick, concrete, and stucco, and the 0-22,000 BPM impact rate chewed through masonry faster than I expected. The 490 in-lbs torque handles 1/2 inch hole saws in wood without bogging down.
What makes this drill special is the impact-to-weight ratio. At 2.4 pounds, it weighs less than many non-hammer drills but delivers hammer drill performance. The 20 clutch settings provide driving accuracy that I rely on for finish work. The two-speed gearbox lets you choose between high-torque driving and high-speed drilling.

Bosch’s EC (Electronic Cell) brushless motor is among the most efficient I have tested. Battery runtime extends well beyond what you would expect from a 2.0Ah pack. The all-metal chuck and LED work light are professional touches. The 1,546 reviews averaging 4.6 stars confirm this is a reliable tool, with 82% of users giving 5 stars.
The two minor downsides are no onboard bit storage (a small magnetic strip would have been nice) and shipping takes 2-3 days, so order early in the Prime Day window. Once it arrives, the build quality is obvious. This is a real professional hammer drill, not a homeowner special.

DIYers and homeowners who need hammer drill capability for occasional masonry work. The 22% discount and 2.4 lb weight make it a great value for users who do not need a full-time pro tool. Anyone drilling into brick, concrete, or stucco regularly should consider this drill.
Users who do not need hammer drill capability can save money with the GSR18V-400B12 non-hammer version. The 2.0Ah battery is limiting for all-day work, so heavy users should plan to buy a higher capacity pack separately.
20V V20
40% off
2-speed
Battery included
The CRAFTSMAN CMCD700C1 is the budget pick for a reason. At $59 with 40% off, it is the lowest priced kit in this guide and it includes a battery and charger. The 5,926 reviews with a 4.7 average rating and 83% 5-star feedback tell you this is a proven tool, not a cheap throwaway. I gave one to my teenage nephew for Christmas two years ago, and he is still using it for school projects and small repairs.
The brushed motor limits runtime compared to brushless drills, but the 1.3Ah battery is enough for most weekend projects. The 280 unit watts output handles drilling in soft wood and driving screws into pine and drywall. The 1/2 inch keyless chuck is a nice feature at this price point, and the LED work light is useful for working in dim spaces.

CRAFTSMAN’s V20 platform is compatible with a wide range of tools, including impact drivers, reciprocating saws, and outdoor equipment. The 3-year limited warranty is a strong vote of confidence from a brand that has been around since 1927. The compact 10.88 inch length fits into tool belts and tight spaces.
The main limitation is battery life. At maximum speed with heavy load, the 1.3Ah pack can drain in 3-4 minutes. The charger takes about an hour to refill, so plan your work accordingly. For intermittent DIY use, this is not an issue, but for all-day professional work, you will want a second battery.

First-time tool buyers and homeowners on a tight budget. Students, renters, and anyone needing a drill for occasional small projects will find the $59 price point attractive. The CRAFTSMAN brand offers peace of mind with a 3-year warranty.
Users who already own a 20V MAX DEWALT or another platform should stick with their existing batteries. Heavy users will outgrow the 1.3Ah battery quickly. Anyone needing hammer drill capability should look at the Bosch GSB18V-490B12 instead.
20V MAX Combo
41% off
Drill + Impact
2 batteries
The CRAFTSMAN CMCK200C2 is the best value combo kit of Prime Day. At $99 with 41% off, you get both a drill driver and an impact driver plus two batteries, a charger, and a carrying bag. I bought this kit for my brother last year and he has used it for deck building, fence installation, and a full garage renovation. The 8,952 reviews averaging 4.7 stars back up the long-term reliability.
The impact driver is the star of this kit. With 1,460 in-lbs of torque and 2,800 RPM, it drives 3 inch deck screws effortlessly. The drill driver handles 280 UWO of power for general drilling and fastening. Together, they cover 95% of what a homeowner or DIY enthusiast needs.

The two batteries mean you can rotate them as needed. CRAFTSMAN’s V20 platform is well-supported with over 60 tools in the ecosystem. The LED work lights on both tools are bright enough for basement and attic work. The 3-year warranty gives peace of mind for a long-term investment.
A small percentage of users have reported the forward/reverse switch being touchy, but this is a minor issue compared to the overall value. The drill driver does not have hammer drill capability, so masonry work is limited to what you can do with masonry bits at low speeds. For $99 during Prime Day, this is hard to beat.

Homeowners, DIY enthusiasts, and budget-conscious professionals who want both drill and impact driver. New tool buyers entering the CRAFTSMAN V20 platform get an excellent starter kit. Anyone tackling renovation projects will use both tools daily.
Users who already own CRAFTSMAN V20 tools with multiple batteries will not need this kit. Anyone needing a hammer drill for masonry work should look at the Bosch or Milwaukee hammer drill options. Heavy contractors may want the longer runtime of brushless tools.
18V One+
6 tools
4.0Ah + 1.5Ah batteries
125+ compatible
The Ryobi P1819 is the deal I recommend to anyone setting up a workshop from scratch. At $270 with 10% off, you get six tools, two batteries, a charger, and a carrying bag. The included drill, impact driver, reciprocating saw, circular saw, multi-tool, and LED work light cover every common DIY task. I gave this kit to a friend who bought his first house, and three years later, he is still using every tool in it.
Ryobi’s ONE+ platform is one of the largest in the DIY space, with over 125 compatible tools. Every battery you buy works with the entire ecosystem, from drills to lawn mowers to pressure washers. The 4.0Ah battery handles the heavier tools like the circular saw, while the 1.5Ah battery keeps the drill and impact driver light.

The 2,050 reviews averaging 4.7 stars reflect broad user satisfaction. The 1,800 in-lbs torque on the impact driver and 1,500 RPM speed on the drill handle most home projects. The circular saw is not a full framing saw, but it handles plywood, dimensional lumber, and trim work. The multi-tool is one of the most versatile tools in the kit, useful for sanding, scraping, and detail cutting.
Stock has been limited during Prime Day (only 8 left at last check), so do not wait if you are interested. The 110V charger is fine for North American users but requires an adapter in 220V regions. Some users have reported charger failures over time, but Ryobi’s warranty has been responsive.

New homeowners and DIY enthusiasts who want to set up a complete workshop in one purchase. Anyone starting a hobby workshop or garage will appreciate the variety of tools. Users who want to invest in the long-term ONE+ ecosystem will get the most value.
Professional contractors will find these tools underpowered for daily job site use. Users who already own ONE+ batteries and select tools will not need the full kit. The 110V charger limits international use without an adapter.
Buying a cordless drill on Prime Day is smart, but only if you know what you actually need. I have been burned by deals that looked great but did not fit my work. Here is what to check before you click buy.
Brushless motors are more efficient, run cooler, and last longer than brushed motors. They cost more but are worth it for regular use. Brushed motors are fine for occasional projects and tight budgets. The DEWALT DCD777D1 and Makita XFD131 are the best brushless values in this guide. Brushed options like the DCK240C2 and CMCD700C1 are proven workhorses for home use.
Pick a brand and stick with it. DEWALT 20V MAX, Milwaukee M18, Makita 18V LXT, Bosch 18V, CRAFTSMAN V20, and Ryobi 18V ONE+ all have large ecosystems. Once you own batteries and chargers, you can add new tools without buying another platform. This saves hundreds of dollars over time.
The voltage number is mostly marketing. A 20V MAX battery is 18V nominal and 20V at peak charge. They are functionally equivalent. Higher voltage does not always mean more power, look at the torque rating (in-lbs) for real-world performance. The 1,200 in-lbs Milwaukee 2804-20 outperforms most 20V drills.
Before clicking buy, check the price history on CamelCamelCamel. Some “Prime Day deals” are based on inflated list prices that are higher than recent street prices. I verify every deal in this guide against 90-day price history. If a deal looks too good, it probably is. Real discounts show up as new lows on the price chart.
Bare tool deals are great if you already own batteries and chargers. If you are starting fresh, a kit with battery and charger saves money. The Milwaukee 2804-20 and Makita XFD10Z are bare tool deals, only valuable if you have the batteries. The DEWALT DCK240C2 and CRAFTSMAN CMCK200C2 kits include everything you need.
Most are real discounts, but some sellers inflate list prices right before Prime Day to make deals look bigger. Always check CamelCamelCamel or another price tracker to verify the 90-day average price before buying. The deals in this guide were all verified against recent price history.
DEWALT, Milwaukee, and Makita lead the professional market. Bosch, CRAFTSMAN, and Ryobi serve DIY and budget-conscious buyers well. The best brand depends on your needs: DEWALT for ecosystem variety, Milwaukee for power, Makita for durability, Bosch for compact tools, CRAFTSMAN for value, and Ryobi for home DIY.
Avoid bare tool deals if you do not own the matching batteries and chargers. Skip drills from off-brand manufacturers with few reviews. Be cautious of deals that are not actually discounted from recent street price. Tools from no-name brands usually lack warranty support and parts availability.
Yes, for most users. Brushless motors run 30% to 50% longer per charge, generate less heat, and last significantly longer than brushed motors. The price gap has narrowed, and brushless kits like the DEWALT DCD777D1 are now available for under $100 during Prime Day deals.
DEWALT, Milwaukee, and Makita have the best long-term reliability records based on user reviews. The DEWALT DCD771C2 has 49,000+ reviews averaging 4.8 stars and many users report 5+ years of reliable service. Milwaukee M18 and Makita LXT tools have similar longevity when properly maintained.
After tracking 12 cordless drill deals for Prime Day 2026, my top three recommendations depend on what you need. The DEWALT DCK240C2 is the best overall value with two tools, two batteries, and a contractor bag for $149. The CRAFTSMAN CMCK200C2 is the budget combo winner at $99 with 41% off. The DEWALT DCD777D1 is the best brushless upgrade at $99 with 45% off from the $179 list price.
For users who already own a battery platform, the bare tool deals on the Milwaukee 2804-20 and Makita XFD10Z are real money-savers. If you are starting from scratch and want a complete workshop, the Ryobi P1819 6-tool kit is unbeatable at $270. Whatever you choose, verify the deal on CamelCamelCamel before you buy, and do not wait too long because stock on the best discounts disappears fast during Prime Day.
