Soldato
@Kol I like having the same tools, which is a little silly sometimes.
When i need something new i do consider buying a new brand though just to branch out and give me an "in" into another battery eco system. Whilst for some tools the bare prices are much of a muchness. For others there can be a huge swing and it'd be nice not to be tied into Dewalt.
The cordless sander being one. The Dewalt one is £150 for the bare tool, the Makita is £85ish and the Ryobi is £50! I know the Dewalt is brushless, but when you would just like to have something to hand for small jobs it's a big expense.
Although given Metabo are generally as expensive as it comes that probably doesn't apply Not tempted by the new Milwaukee range in Screwfix?
