Best cordless impact drivers
Researched by Deal.ai's shopping agent across stores on November 1, 2026. Prices below are today's.
Top pick: DeWalt 20V MAX High-Torque DCF860 — 2,500 in-lbs of torque in a compact 20V body, brushless, and it runs on the batteries most people already own. It's the one to buy if you want one driver for deck screws, lags and lug nuts.
Who the others suit:
- Flex 24V Quick Eject FX1371A — same 2,500 in-lbs class with a quick bit eject; pick it if you're building a Flex kit.
- Bosch 18V GDR18V-1950 — 1,950 in-lbs, short body; great for cabinet and trim work.
- Metabo HPT 36V WH36DCM — highest rated here; the choice for heavy daily use.
- Milwaukee M12 Fuel — 12V and light; ideal for punch-list and overhead work.
- DeWalt DCF870 Quiet Hydraulic — much quieter, low torque; for indoor and finish work.
- DeWalt DCF809B / Milwaukee M18 kits — budget-friendly entry points if you don't need max power.
