Review: Very durable last many years - Great product
Review: Probably the best 18v drill on the market - There are honestly a lot of good drills out there, but what makes this one stand out is that it has a mechanical clutch. Most drills have electronic clutches that make the tool way too strong, so even on low torque settings you still end up stripping screws and potentially even breaking the thing youre screwing into. The mechanical clutch in this one means that for work involving fasteners, you have the delicate touch you need to not destroy anything. And yet in spite of that, its still among the most powerful drills (not THE most powerful 18v, but its up there) for when do need that. I have been abusing this thing constantly for two years now and it still operates just like that day i bought it. I have left it out in the sweltering florida sun multiple times, and even in the rain one time. While I dont advice you ever do that, my unit seems completely unphased by it. I would buy this drill 10x over

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Most handy tool in the toolbox.
*by L***N on 29 May 2026*

The Makita 18 V LXT drill is probably the most reliable Handy tool I use. The only other that comes close is its impact version. Usually, I buy them as a pair. But this time I only needed this version in order to attach a small paint mixer to it. Add a remote location.I probably have 15 different drills between my truck and shop. This one is definitely my go to Buddy. It has never failed, except for when I dropped them from very high locations. Then they usually succumb to gravity. I like the way it fits my hand. Does not pinch my finger when pulling the trigger. It’s balanced perfectly. Has just the right amount of power. I am careful not to overheat it. For instance I wouldn’t put a large mixer on it. At least not for very long. It treats me well, I treat it well. And we get a lot done.
