DeWalt 20V Cordless Drill and Impact Driver Kit vs DeWalt 20V Max Drill and Impact Driver Kit

These are the same DeWalt 20V MAX brushless drill and impact driver kit under two listings, so the choice comes down to which listing you trust more, not which tool is better. Both pair a compact 1/2 in drill driver with a 5.1 in impact driver rated at 1,700 in-lb of torque, two 1.3 Ah batteries, a charger and a contractor bag. Owners praise the torque and the complete kit, but a recurring complaint is short runtime on the small batteries and a bit-retaining collar that has broken on some drivers. Buy either if you want a light, brushless two-tool starter set; step up only if you plan long sessions, where a bigger battery matters more than the kit itself.

• Choose the DeWalt Cordless Drill and Driver if you want the listing with the larger body of ratings behind it and the same brushless two-tool kit.
• Choose the DeWalt 20V Max Brushless Drill and Impact Driver Set if its listing spells out the model details you want confirmed, like the DCF809 driver and the DCB203 batteries.
