| 89 | | $160 | If you are searching for a top-notch drill that can accomplish the hardest tasks with ease, then the Kobalt is our top recommendation for you |
| 83 | | $160 | The DCD777C2 is a burly drill with tons of power but we wished it did a bit better in our battery tests |
| 80 | | $160 | The Atomic DCD708C2 has tons of power in a compact package |
| 79 | | $180 | Although it finished just behind the best drills, the M18 still has tons of drilling and driving power |
| 77 | | $160 | While being absolutely amazing at driving in fasteners, the below average battery life of the DCD771C2 precluded it from winning an award |
| 72 | | $139 | If you are willing to sacrifice a little drilling power to save some cash, then the PCCK607LB is a solid choice |
| 72 | | $170 | The Ridgid R86009K did good, not great, across the board, making its top-tier price a bit hard to swallow |
| 64 | | $100 | Earning the Best Buy award, the Ryobi P252 is a great option for anyone who wants to take on basic DIY or woodworking projects without breaking the bank |
| 63 | | $130 | Finishing in the middle of the group overall, the Bosch did alright in our tests but it is far from our favorite |
| 60 | | $170 | The M12 Fuel packs a surprising amount of power into a compact package |
| 60 | | $79 | The CMCD700C1 is a great budget drill for a homeowners or DIYer and has more than enough power for moderate to light-duty tasks |
| 53 | | $130 | Our favorite compact 12-volt drill for the price |
| 49 | | $170 | The Makita XFD10R is priced like a premium tool but delivered an overall lackluster performance |
| 43 | | $80 | If you are trying to spend as little as possible on a basic drill starter set for light-duty tasks around your home, this tool is a solid choice |
| 36 | | $130 | This 12-volt drill from DEWALT is quite underpowered when it comes to drilling and driving |
| 35 | | $60 | The LDX120C is a great choice if you are shopping on a super tight budget and don't expect too much |
| 32 | | $60 | While the WORKPRO is one of the least expensive drills we have tested, it wouldn't be our first choice for a budget-conscious option |
| 17 | | $40 | The BDCDD12C is a solid choice if you only need to do light-duty tasks and want to spend the absolute minimum |
