I know everyone has their favourites but I mainly use the Makita LXT (impact drivers, drill/drivers, planers, jigsaw, multitool, router, needle sander, impact wrench, masonry drill, circular saws, impact wrench etc.) and hammer my tools not far off as much as a professional - as in the middle of renovating several properties at my place. I have 10 5.0Ah batteries and 2 6.0 Ah and non of them have let me down. The batteries last all day in most tools (masonry drill and circular saw excepted) and the tools themselves have been very reliable with only one impact driver failing simply through going end of life through excessive use and a problem with the larger multitool where it wouldn't always release - fixed free under warranty. Also have some Festool stuff for specialist work including a insulation cutter and a rail saw. Very expensive but very well made and accurate.
