      <font size="2" face="sans-serif">Dewalt has the most tools and is

        solid.  (Except their chainsaw!)</font>
      <br>
      <br>
      <font size="2" face="sans-serif">Milwaukee is pretty much top of
        the
        heap, but expensive and don't have as many different tools.</font>

      <br>
      <font size="2" face="sans-serif">All other brands are less costly
        and
        have a great selection, but seem to be more 'consumer' than
        'professional.'</font>
      <br>
      <br>
      <font size="2" face="sans-serif">My way is to go Dewalt for most
        things
        and do Milwaukee for the stuff they are WAY better at.

        pole trimmers, etc.)</font>
      <br>
      <br>
      <font size="2" face="sans-serif">Also note, the land of the rising
        sun
        is now making tons of tools that are compatible with Dewalt and
        Milwaukee's
        batteries.  These tools are super cheap (both in quality and
        price)
        but really extend the offerings of both brands. Tons of options
        for lights,
        inverters, etc.</font>
