Makita. I got a set years ago because of a great sale and a coupon from a sales rep. Have added to the collection here and there. Love my tools. They keep up or out perform (depending on the tool) with everything else.

Makita, Dewalt, Milwaukee-- all three are great tool brands and are on par with each other overall. As said some tools are better depending on the brand.

If I had to choose again, I'd go with Milwaukee because they have lots more tools at stores and the coordination with the packout system.
