Best cheap cordless power tools for home use

Start here: the DeWalt 20V MAX 2-tool combo kit. A drill/driver plus impact driver, two batteries and a charger — the two tools that cover almost every home job, from hanging shelves to assembling furniture, on a battery platform you can add to later.

Who the others suit:

• DeWalt 20V MAX drill + impact driver (Home Depot) — same pairing, a slightly different kit; pick whichever listing suits you.
• Milwaukee M18 Compact 2-tool kit — if you want a tougher-feeling kit and may add more tools later.
• Hyper Tough 12V 4-in-1 drill — light, occasional jobs only.
• Worx oscillating multi-tool — trim and cut-out work the drill can't do.
• DeWalt 7-tool kit — only if you're kitting out a whole workshop.
