Reply To: Ridgid vs Milwaukee

Just my 2 cents worth, but I prefer the Milwaukee corded hand tools…Sawzall, drills, etc., but PortaCable runs a close second. For cordless hand tools, I prefer Bosch and PortaCable, but I’ve used Makita and have no complaints about them either.

As a plumber, I’ve got a lot of affection for Rigid, and almost all of my wrenches, pipe cutters, vises and pipe threading equipment is made by them. Except for their motorized drain snakes, I don’t use their electrical tools.
