Best Impact Drivers of 2025

"I've always liked this product; it's durable and works flawlessly under all conditions. The battery charges without issues, and the impact drill is fantastic. I love how all the products from this company work together seamlessly. As a proud owner and frequent user, I highly recommend it, especially for new customers!"

"As someone who's a bit of a DIY enthusiast, I can confidently say you can’t go wrong with DeWalt. The 20V XR series offers unparalleled durability and killer battery power. This impact driver drives screws effortlessly and handles a variety of tasks. Great quality and construction make it a must-have for anyone from DIYers to professionals!"

"Transitioning to this new impact driver has been a game-changer. It’s lighter, more powerful, and the new charger is compact and easy to carry. I only need 20V batteries for all my DeWalt tools now. It’s been perfect for driving screws and drilling into concrete. Definitely a good value for money!"

"I've always been a fan of Craftsman tools. Their focus on impact tools is impressive, and this impact driver is powerful enough for home tasks like hanging curtains and drilling. The battery lasts a long time and it's very lightweight!"

"Initially, I had my doubts due to some negative reviews. However, for my home projects, it works perfectly! Good power for drilling and screwing, quick charging, and even after weeks without use, the battery still holds charge well. I definitely recommend it!"

"This Craftsman impact drill exceeded my expectations! I bought it to remove a rusted bolt on a friend's vehicle, and it did the job with ease. High quality and amazing performance—I would highly recommend this product!"

“I finally decided to get an impact driver. As a DIYer, I never thought I'd need one, but it proved invaluable for removing stubborn heating elements from my electric water heater. With over 1500 lbs per sq inch of power, it easily broke loose both elements. It may lack the manual 3-speed feature of pricier models, but that's not a concern for me. Its lightweight and narrow design makes it perfect for tight spaces. If you have Dewalt tools/batteries, this impact driver is an excellent value. I've used it for weeks, and I’m still on the first battery! I wholeheartedly recommend Dewalt tools.”

“I’ve had Dewalt tools in my work van for 15 years. I bought this drill to use with the Dewalt PVC pipe cutter attachment. Although I haven't had a job that required it yet, I tested it out, and it worked wonderfully, even on ABS pipe, which wasn't listed as compatible.”

“I used to have the older model of the Dewalt Atomic for over a decade and loved it! Unfortunately, it didn’t survive a 25-foot drop onto concrete. However, this replacement meets my expectations in terms of quality, battery life, and ease of use. Those lights are just the cherry on top! I’m very happy with my purchase.”

"This is one of the most powerful impact drivers I've used. The selectable speeds prevent driving screws too deep, and while it's a bit heavier, I hardly notice it after a few uses. Overall, I'm really impressed with its compact design."

"I switched to Milwaukee tools as I was tired of mixing brands. This impact driver is large and heavy, especially with a high-capacity battery, but it’s the best hex driver I’ve ever used. Fast delivery and great prices too!"

"After upgrading, this impact driver has been a game-changer for my garage door repairs. The power is incredible—I've been snapping heads off lags! But sadly, it stopped working on me after a few months. I was pretty disappointed with the limited warranty."

"I find the DEWALT DCF887B Impact Driver to be exceptional for my DIY projects. Its power and efficiency are truly impressive, especially with the brushless motor that delivers consistent torque across three speed settings. It's maneuverable in tight spaces, although it is slightly heavier compared to smaller models. I've used it extensively for various tasks, and the LED lights are a fantastic feature for dimly lit areas. This impact driver is definitely a top contender for anyone needing a reliable tool."

"I absolutely love this impact driver! We've been using it for almost everything in our crew, from driving screws to drilling holes. It's lightweight, and the 2.0 Ah battery lasts a long time. The brushless motor provides plenty of power, and I usually keep it on the middle power setting for most tasks. I really recommend investing a little more for this brushless model over the traditional ones. You will not regret it!"

"After using the impact driver for over a year in my solar and storage work, I can say it's been invaluable. Even after getting soaked in rain multiple times, it still performs well. It tightens bolts that other impacts couldn't manage to loosen. I did have a brief issue with the 3rd speed setting, but it worked again after drying out. Overall, I've put this tool through a lot and would definitely recommend it to others!"

"For the price, I was surprised by the power this impact driver has. It's not the most powerful tool out there, but it works just fine for small to medium jobs around the house. I do wish the battery life was a bit better, but overall, it's a solid product."

"I had to learn about impact drivers on my own, and I didn't realize how effective they are compared to regular drills. Using this impact driver has significantly reduced the hassle of swapping bits constantly, and it saves me from needing to drill pilot holes. It's become an essential tool in my collection, and I’m quite pleased with its performance."

"I've been using this impact driver in my construction demolition work for almost three years. It’s held up well despite some drops and heavy usage. While most in the industry opt for brand names, I found this tool to be a cost-effective alternative that's still reliable. I do wish it had a clip for easy carrying, but that's a minor issue."

"As a small remodeling business owner, these drills are fantastic. They’re definitely worth the investment for the extra torque and speed settings. The battery technology is impressive, allowing me to tackle large projects without frequent charging. I was initially nervous about purchasing power tools online, but buying directly from Amazon saved me $80."

"I needed a lighter drill without sacrificing power, and this has been the perfect solution. I even bought a holder to store it under my shelf along with the spare batteries. It has become my go-to drill for various homeowner projects."

"Being part of the DeWalt family, I found this model to be a powerful driver. I recently completed building a backyard deck using my old DeWalt tools, and I realized I should have bought this sooner. Although it starts off quietly, it becomes incredibly powerful under resistance, making it ideal for driving longer screws without needing pilot holes."

"I recently bought the Milwaukee M12 Sub-compact Impact Driver, and I can't say enough great things about it! The size and weight are perfect, making it easy to maneuver in tight spaces without losing power. It's incredibly lightweight, allowing me to use it for a long time without feeling fatigued. Its performance is outstanding, delivering an impressive amount of torque for heavy-duty tasks."

"This drill is simply the best small factor drill that packs a punch! I ordered a DeWalt, but it didn't even compare. It's light, small, and powerful, truly the best in its class."

"I absolutely love this tool. While it is a bit pricy, the quality is top-notch. It's small enough for me to use without feeling tired, and the handle fits comfortably in my small hands. I can use it for anything—screws, drill bits, you name it!"

"This tool is super light, powerful, and super quick to operate! I absolutely love it!"

"After 20 years under a car hood, I can say this tool is functional and has more than enough torque. It's fairly quiet and works with various attachments. With a lithium battery pack, I'm ready to go!"

"I own many Dewalt tools, but this compact driver can fit almost anywhere and still delivers a serious punch. It's far more useful than my Dewalt 3/8 ratchet, which feels underpowered by comparison. I'm really pleased with this tool!"

"I bought this for my husband, but I use it more than he does! It's lightweight, easy to operate, and even has reverse functionality. All of this at a fantastic price. Thanks, Greenworks!"

"This impact driver is a huge upgrade from traditional drills. It feels great in my hand and packs a lot of power. I highly recommend it if you're considering joining the Greenworks family."

"For just $60, I have no complaints. It's far superior to those cheap brands, and it comes with two batteries!"
