Could be, but there are also like 80 different impact drivers in each brand, so tough to compare apples to apples. I also bought all my power tools years and years ago, so just going off what I remember when I was doing my research. I actually own mostly DeWalt and some Makita and Harbor Freight, and my router stuff is all Bosch. The only Milwaukee stuff I own is their M18 yard tools stuff and it's really shoddily built and quite shit, though it did look the best compared to the alternatives - so probably just a function of compromising on a multi tool. But hey, I'm just one dad.

The one thing I know for sure is there's a silly amount of brand loyalty and sweeping generalizations (like the ones I made!), and it's tough to cut through any of it since tool review websites and videos are probably the worst example of AI generated blogspam I experience in my daily life. Unless someone's a professional tradesman, they probably don't get to use tools enough to have well-informed opinions, and then their needs don't even really match harry homeowner in the first place!

It's probably best to just do blind tribalism and give us something to make fun of other dads for. What I'm trying to say is your response is exactly what someone in House Milwaukee would say.
