A Masterpiece of a Power Tool
I really can’t explain the first, one-star customer review of this product at Amazon. I guess that you can get a lemon in anything. This is not a dangerous product, as the review said. Makita is a reputable manufacturer. This saw is and LOOKS high quality. It is beautifully finished [...]

I took a chance and I’m glad I did !!
I debated a couple of years about purchasing a tool like this. At first, Fein was the only option and just for home use it was too much money for me to justify purchasing. Now that there are reasonably priced choices, I purchased the [...]

wow
This tool is one of the most ingenious and valuable tools i’ve ever used, and I’d recommend anyone who drives any number of screws regularly (or a lot of screws every now and then) get an impact driver.
The first day i showed up at a site with my brand new little hitachi impact driver, [...]

Awesome Saw
Flawless. All the power you would ever want in a circ saw, with barely half the weight of a worm drive. The cast magnesium base is rock solid, glides easily, and adjusts like a dream. Adjustable dust chute, comfortable grips, solid trigger.How much did this cost again? Can that really [...]

Makita takes a page from Porter Cable’s book
Porter Cable is in big trouble with this router. Makita has copied (borrowed) the best of the features that make the PC 690 the standard in mid-sized routers and added lots more. The 1101 has more HP (2-1/4 vs. 1-1/2) Has Variable speed, A much nicer [...]

My Favorite Tool - A Carpenters’ honest opinion
I’ve owned this Makita impact gun for over three years and still love it. I’m a professional carpenter/handyman and this tool by far is the one I use most. It’s the most comfortable cordless drill I’ve ever handled (and I’ve owned at least seven). It will drive 3 [...]

Very Good Screwdriver
I have a Denali rechargeable screwdriver set which I like, but the screwdriver doesn’t have much power. This one beats it hands-down. The rotating drive feature works fine, but I haven’t found a situation where it makes much difference. The important thing for me is that the screwdriver is powerful [...]

fantastic value for money
Bought this re-conditioned on sale for $30. Best $30 I’ve ever spent. If you need/want a 1/4 inch shaft bit router, you can’t beat this for the money. I have used it in a router table also and it works remarkably well there, as long as you are mindful of the 1/4 [...]

good product, poor instructions
This is a good base but it takes a bit of work to put it together. The directions are bad but with careful study and logic you can guess you’re way through. The instructions carefully name and number all the parts but give you no diagram or way to tell which are [...]
