DeWalt 20V MAX 7-Tool Combo Kit vs M12 FUEL 12-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Hammer Drill and Impact Driver Combo Kit w/2 Batteries and Bag (2-Tool)

Buy the DeWalt 7-tool kit if you want one box that covers sawing, sanding, drilling and driving on a full-size 20V platform. Buy the Milwaukee M12 FUEL 2-tool kit if you mostly drill and drive, work overhead or in tight spots, and want the lightest, most compact tools. The DeWalt gives you more tools and bigger batteries; the Milwaukee gives you better brushless tools, a smaller footprint and a huge 12V system behind it. Owners of both rate the tools highly; the Milwaukee kit carries a strong 4.8 average from thousands of ratings.

• Choose the DeWalt 7-tool kit if you want a circular saw, sander and light in the same kit as your drill and driver, and you don't mind the weight.
• Choose the Milwaukee M12 FUEL kit if you want compact, brushless drill and driver tools that fit in tight spaces and share batteries with a large 12V lineup.
