The Milwaukee Tools I Personally Use Are up to 50% Off Right Now

Tools can be a serious investment, so if you’re looking to up your DIY game in 2026, a tool set is often a good solution. Because they come with batteries and chargers, they’re a great way to immediately get everything you need to use a new set of tools, and they can be more economical than buying each tool individually. Milwaukee tool sets often cost over $1,000, but you can get a few of these sets for under $700 right now at Home Depot.

I’ve used Milwaukee cordless tools for over a decade on a variety of professional and personal projects, including projects around the house as well as large-scale deck installations. These tools tend to be reliable, and the batteries typically last more than ten years, even when working outdoors, exposed to rain and dirt. Durability is an important consideration when purchasing tools; the longer they last, the more economical they are. Since all current tools are backward compatible with any 18-volt battery I have, it’s easy to add tools to my set as new tools appear that I want to try and as my needs increase.

THE Milwaukee 18-volt nine-tool combo kit is on sale for $649, 46% off its regular price. It comes with a drill, ¼-inch impact driver, ½-inch impact wrench, 6 ½-inch circular saw, one-handed reciprocating saw, angle grinder, oscillating multi-tool, mini blower, work light, two 5 amp-hour batteries, charger, and tool bag. This is a good set for larger projects, and it contains many of the tools I used to build a large outdoor deck. Two larger capacity batteries are a good place to start, although if you plan to use multiple saws simultaneously you will need to add another battery or two to keep a fresh battery ready on the charger.

THE Milwaukee 18-Volt Five-Tool Combo Kit is on sale for $299, 50% off its regular price. This set includes a drill, ¼-inch impact driver, 6 ½-inch circular saw, one-handed reciprocating saw, work light, five amp-hour battery, 1.5 amp-hour battery, charger, and tool bag. This set has everything you need to start doing DIY projects, and it includes all the basic Milwaukee tools that I use every day for woodworking and small construction projects like building shelves. This is a good starter set to build on, and is very similar to the one I started with over a decade ago.

THE Milwaukee 12-Volt Sub-Compact Drill and Screwdriver Combo is on sale for $199, 50% off its regular price. This set includes a 12-volt drill, impact driver, motorized ratchet wrench, two batteries, charger and tool bag. Although 12-volt batteries are often underpowered for larger projects, these smaller tools can be very useful for projects like assembling furniture, installing shelves, or repairing appliances, because you often don’t need more than an hour or so of battery life to accomplish many of these tasks with your tools, and their smaller size makes them easier to fit into tight spaces.
