Mine is a Nu-tool make bought in a discount place 15-20 years ago and original battery going strong. Cheap but done a great job.
It is my "go to" one for many jobs unless my Bosch drill is needed for hammer action, or more torque. I do look at the nice ones for sale but can't justify spending more for an occasional use item. If something is on a big discount though, the temptation grows!
The mix of tools covers me for 99% of my DIY and anything extra is either hired or borrowed.
If I was in business then I would definitely look at better quality for some of the gear.
I also have a NuTool cordless drill, bought it to get me out of trouble with a job in my caravan (which was kept on a seasonal pitch) about 15 years ago, the battery is still fine and it works well just not very powerful, fine for drilling wood. I also have a Makita with a twin battery pack, both batteries failed after 18 months, being a quality brand I asked at the seller and was advised that they all seem to fail as its the earlier Lithium type battery but would I like to buy another drill for £185....I declined and contacted Makita UK, they basically just wanted to sell me a pair of new batteries for more than I could buy 3 Nu-Tool drill kits for...I tried all the dodges on the internet and recovered some use from one of the batteries, the drill is really nice to use but I will never buy another from them.
