Why we like it
The Milwaukee M12 Cordless Crown Stapler drives 3/8-inch staples through a range of materials, and at just 3 lbs. and 7.5 inches long, it’s compact enough to fit into tight spaces or clip right onto your tool belt. The trigger is designed to reduce hand fatigue, and you can switch between sequential and contact firing modes depending on the job, which is useful whether you’re doing upholstery, securing weatherstripping, or laying carpet underlayment.

Why we like it
The M12 FUEL Oscillating Multi-Tool is built for speed and control: Milwaukee’s Powerstate brushless motor pushes out 10,000 to 20,000 oscillations per minute, which the brand says is the fastest cutting speed on a 12V platform. It’s also designed to vibrate less, so your hands don’t take the brunt of a long project, and the tool-free blade change means you’re not hunting for an Allen key mid-task. It handles wood, metal, plaster, and drywall, and switches over to a sander with the right attachment.

Why we like it
The M12 FUEL Compact Cut-Off Tool is for the small, awkward jobs like trimming a rusted-out bolt, cutting PVC to fit, or working under a sink where a full-size saw just won’t reach. It spins at 20,000 RPM and comes with three accessories out of the box, so it’s ready for multiple materials without extra purchases. The reversible blade rotation gives you more control over the direction of your cut, and an LED light helps you see what you’re doing in dim spaces.

The M12 Cordless ratchet gives you the power and speed of a pneumatic tool without needing an air hose, making it much more practical for home maintenance or car repairs. It produces up to 35 ft-lbs of torque and 250 RPM, and at just under 11 inches long and less than 2 lbs, it fits into engine bays and other cramped spots that pneumatic ratchets can’t reach. A built-in LED light and onboard fuel gauge help you see what you’re doing and track your charge.
