Here are the best deals on good quality tools I'm seeing during Amazon's October Prime Day sale.
The best Prime Day deals on DeWalt cordless tool sets
Cordless tools have gotten more advanced in recent years, with longer lasting, higher powered batteries that weigh less. Getting the right cordless tools for your DIY job can be expensive, though, so here are some deals on cordless sets that can help you build a tool kit on a budget.
The DeWalt 20 Volt MAX 5-tool combo comes with a drill, a quarter-inch hex chuck impact driver, an oscillating multi-tool, a 6-and-a-half-inch circular saw, a reciprocating saw, a 2-amp-hour battery, a 4-amp-hour battery, a charger, and a tool bag. It?s on sale right now for $399, 38% off its regular price. This is a good starter set for the budding DIY-er.
The DeWalt 20 Volt MAX drill/driver combo set is on sale for $129, 46% off its usual price. The set comes with a drill, a quarter-inch impact driver, two 2-amp-hour batteries, a charger, and a tool bag. This is a good beginner's choice if you need a cordless drill set for home maintenance.
The DeWalt 20 Volt MAX oscillating tool kit comes with an oscillating tool, a 4-amp-hour battery, a charger, a multi-material blade, and a tool bag. It?s on sale for $99, 55% off its typical price. This is a good expansion kit for an existing DeWalt set because it comes with a battery and charger as well as the tool.
The DeWalt Cordless Mini Chainsaw doesn't come with a battery but includes accessories like safety glasses and a replacement chair. It's on sale for $49, 30% off the usual price of $70. It works with any of DeWalt's 20V Max batteries.

The Makita 18 Volt 18-gallon wet/dry shop vac is on sale for $188.09, 45% off its usual price. Although it?s listed as a ?tool only? deal, it does come with a HEPA filter cartridge, a vacuum hose, and a set of nozzles. This wet/dry vac can also be used for dust extraction on vacuum-compatible tools. It takes one Makita 18 Volt 5-amp-hour battery to run.
The Makita 18 Volt LXT jigsaw is on sale for $129.97, 54% off its regular price. This saw is good for smaller cuts, and cutting curves or special shapes.
Larger bench tools that don?t need to be packed up every day can easily be run from your regular household current.
