Compare cordless drills on the numbers that matter
Torque ratings, weight, speed, and price for 30 current drill/drivers and hammer drills from DeWalt, Milwaukee, Makita, Bosch, Ryobi, and more, including budget picks from Bauer, Hart, Hercules, and Skil. Filter, sort, and pin up to three models side by side. Specs cite their sources: every number links to where it came from.
Filters
Weights are bare tool, no battery, as the manufacturer or test bench states them. Prices are recent street prices for the bare tool and move around; treat them as a band, not a quote.

Why another drill comparison
Most cordless drill comparison charts online are years out of date, list models that no longer sell, or bury the numbers in affiliate prose. This table does one job: current models, the four specs that actually separate them, and a source for every number. It does not rank "best" or take affiliate links, so the sorting is yours.
New to the numbers? Read what torque, UWO, RPM and weight really tell you (and what they hide), then work through the short buying guide for three common situations: first drill, lightweight overhead work, and concrete.
Deeper dives: the full sortable comparison chart behind the tool above, hammer drill vs regular drill, 18V vs 20V Max, drill vs impact driver, and brushless vs brushed motors. Hardware questions: drill bits by material, chuck sizes explained, and torque settings explained. Technique guides: drilling into tile without cracks, drilling through metal, drilling a hole in glass, hole saw sizes for conduit, plumbing, and doors, tap and drill size charts, pilot hole sizes for every screw, and drill bit sharpening angles and methods. For the holes fasteners and anchors go into, concrete anchor bit sizes by fastener matches bit diameter to wedge and sleeve anchors, the masonry bit size chart lists the inch and mm size runs by shank type, and drill bit coatings compared settles the black oxide versus titanium versus cobalt question.
