  1. Wonderful engineering products for making more engineering products. Engineering concepts are main then we can manifest these engineering concepts through wood plastic metal unstable materials liquids and gases

  2. Sorry kamaráde.
    Toto nářadí opravdu nemám.
    Nepotřebuji ho.
    U nás se domy ze dřeva moc nestaví, takže toto nářadí nepotřebuji

    Sorry buddy. I really don’t have this tool. I do not need him. We don’t build much wooden houses here, so I don’t need this tool.

  3. I have the japan made impact driver. It’s nearly the same price as the China version on ebay. I just bought a brushless makita 16″ chainsaw yesterday. Next will be a pole saw

  4. Makita needs to market many of the tools they sell overseas in the US. LIke that 36v cordless pressure washer….I want one damn it!

  5. i only use Wera sockets and bits i preffer them before anything else as far as bits and sockets and wrenches

  6. 100% brotha your endorsement of makita gave me faith to pursue building my makita tool collection. I’ve got the LXT impact drill and overlooked how good the whole lxt line is till I started watching your videos.

  7. Thanks for sharing, I bought the coffee maker a couple months ago before I just watched this video on April 17th, 2021. Love the coffee maker, also very happy to see they also have a cooling jacket. Y’all would be sweating your balls off down here in San Antonio, TX most of the year without it! That robotic vacuum is pretty cool too, I’d like to put those in my house and garage some day.

  8. I’m a die-hard Milwaukee fan but they really need to come out with a coffee machine and maybe incorporate the same extra modes into there impact driver. But I didn’t even know about the robot vac and damn I want that now… Come one Milwaukee I don’t want to have two different batters and chargers just for a vac and coffee machine.

  9. Great video. Love Makita. I have the standard set of impact sockets btw but I keep a 10mm socket attached to the ¼ by ⅜ adapter that comes with it. 👍🏼👍🏼

  10. I have the Standard and metric socket set. I love it because they are so easy to carry around. But do they have deep sockets in that same rubber case?

  11. Ive been makita since 2006. They survive the 6 day per week beatings way longer then the 12 months you get out of a dewalt before the motor craps out, or the 6 months a Milwaukee lasts before the chuck craps out. I got 11 years from a brushed 18v drill, the impact was still good. But i moved up to brushless, and the drill and impact are animals. Love them. The majority of tradies in Australia ive worked with on site run makita everything.

  12. as a new makita dude….i appreciate the hell out of this video. it all started when I found a 30 year old drill driver on the side of the road. I just bought the CXT impact and drill driver combo from homedepot and I use the hell out of them and I’ve only been a carpenter for a few months

  13. looking for impact driver in INDIA very sad thing is no proper sales and no one is ready to guide customers properly in experience zone. very poor sales here.😞😞😞😞😞😞😞

  14. The sockets – I’ve been using that everywhere for years, (not a Makita setup though). it really gets the work done!

  15. all this productivity is only good for owner. not hourly employees who need stuff to fill the day. i have worked as a labourer. and i needed to stretch out tasks because the bosses only give out one task at a time.

  16. I have both socket sets, use them, they are my go to socket solution. I wish they made them in deep well. The 3/8 driver is very tough and handles ridiculous amounts of torque … Project Farm just uploaded a video recently.?.

  17. Makita batteries are used by most of the F1 teams for brake and sidepod blowers in the pit garages. If they’re good enough for the pinnacle of motorsport, that pretty much speaks for itself. Some teams have taped over the logo but even then they’re pretty easily recognizable…

  18. I had Makita impact and hammer drill I just sold the platform and got on Milwaukee we’ll see how it goes those Makita‘s went through hell and back and never let me down but Milwaukee is just too bad ass not to be on

  19. Hey Vince, I saw another channel use a Makita drywall cutter that won’t damage electrical cords behind the drywall and makes nice cuts. It’s radically different from the rotary, drill bit type drywall cutting tools – Makita Model XDSO1Z. I thought it’s a cool tool if you do a lot of drywall cutouts – maybe something to consider for a review video. Online only at Depot.

  20. Oh yeah please you comment back to me and tell me if you have their 2 stroke weed whacker I bet you don’t So you comment back to me I don’t have to have everything makita but I tell you one thing there to stroke makita weed whackers is the best machine I ever purchased it’s the lightest it’s the best

  21. Only thing that I have that is makita is the best and I mean the best weed whacker I ever purchased I had surgery on my neck and on my arm it is the lightest weed whacker I’ve ever ever used the 2 stroke weed whacker I would buy 20 of them if they still made on but they don’t I talk to the manufacture only do they make is a 4 stroke in the rechargeable ones I love my 2 stroke I mix my oil I mix my gas and I go to work it’s the best machine I ever bought I had still I had houska vanik I had them all and I go right back to my makita weed whacker I smashed the other weed whackers and went back to my makita makita makes the best to stroke weed whacker in the world

  22. I have the impact driver, I imported it directly from Japan about a year ago.
    I still have no clue how to use the features as the symbols on the buttons are written in Japanese.

  23. I’m wondering if Makita has a coffee mixer I mean for instant coffee like nescaffe frappe , BTW I am from Greece and Albania I be been living from these tools
    And also there is a new brand in Greece called budget why so… Well the name itself explain why . Cause they are cheap and claim to be German tools. Make something about Budget tools if you got them in USA

  24. I love the coffee maker Makita well done I mean truly fakk yeah something I hadn’t thought ever thanks Vince and Makita.

  25. I gotta say, once I got my Makita tools I started making more money. XDT14, compact recip, and the paddle grinder have made my job life so much more efficient

    1. Exactly! And they don’t done out with new models often just like Toyota. Stick with what works and the 36 volt using 2 18 volt packs was genius

  26. I bought and returned the Makita Fan Jacket because the 3X jacket (largest offered) is more like a large for the US Market. It was so small that I could barely get it over my shoulders and it was skintight when I zipped it up so there wasn’t a chance that air could circulate around me. The jacket worked for my wife even though it was too large for her.
    I exchanged it thinking that it was marked incorrectly and the replacement jacket was exactly the same.
    Great product if you aren’t over a Large or maybe a 1X.

  27. But would you recommend the XDT16 over the FUEL Gen 3, i have the gen 3 and I have never had a problem with it, not even the collet problem. I find the gen 3 really powerful and nice and compact.

  28. LOVE the impact sockets. Got both the standard and metric. give them as gifts all the time. How come the Depot only sells a limited number of Makita power tools?

  29. Lowe’s needs to steal Makita from HD and offer their full cordless line. It’s the answer to Milwaukee and offering both Dewalt and Makita would be amazing.

    Who wouldn’t be impressed seeing the cordless coffee machine or powered wheelbarrow in Lowe’s power tool aisle?

  30. Hello sir, I am one of your followers and lovers
    Sir, I asked please. I want a Makita drill
    I do not have its price, so can you be kind to me and fulfill my request?
    This prong provides me as a gift from you. I am Egyptian
    Thank you very much, Schneur 40 volt

  31. Just the fact that they went to the liberty bell just for the outro warned my subscription but the video itself was amazing! Great job guys!

  32. The hole world uses the metrical system. Exept the USA. Thats the reason ther prodacts have bad tolerances and the quality is not on point. NASA are using the metrical system but ther were invented by a Nazi scientist.

  33. I love the smoothness and quality of the makita impact. Extremely lightweight and comfortable to use all day. If I wasn’t already invested in DEWALT I would buy one in a heartbeat

  34. In the UK makita is very popular and the most common piece of makita kit is one of their radios! At least 90% of the time if someone’s got a radio on site it’s a makita! Even guys that don’t even need power tools like ground workers and decorators have them!

  35. I’m a scale a calibration technician and use makita everyday. Their impact wrench cut my forklift scale installation time in half. I just wish they made bigger capacity batteries.

  36. Coffee Maker changed the game. Imaging being a Milwaukee fanboy at the worksite and not allowed to drink Makita coffee. If that don’t make them switch brands, nothing will.

  37. That jacket is hilarious. Anyone remember “A Christmas Story”? I’d be on the jobsite like the younger brother “I can’t put my arms down!”

  38. I’ve had the impact for years. I used to be in a rv shop, moved to remodeling, now I use it in my remodel/construction business.

  39. What do you think of makitas portabands? I do a lot of metal fab at my job and cut odd angles pretty often and I get tired of using a grinder.

  40. I have both! For the price i couldn’t help it. Definitely interested in the coffee machine and vacuum for my office

  41. Hey Vince – if you never bothered to look it up… when charging your Makita battery in the intelligent charger, insert the battery and remove it, then insert it again. Each time you remove and re-insert the battery, the charger will pick a different tune to play, and should remember that when you unplug it. (the 2-battery charger can set one tune per battery)

    My favorite is my HS631D – a 18v LXT 165mm circ saw made in Japan.

  42. I’m not impressed by Makita anymore, your presentation is great though.
    Coffee with senseo pads? yak….

  43. I recently bought the Makita 18 volt Coffee Maker because my wife and I plan on doing some camping this year and next year, and let me tell you that I love this little Coffee maker! You can put your own Coffee in it too because it has a filter screen that comes with it. My only complaint is that the cup is half the size of the one I drink from on a daily basis. Very cool little Coffee maker!

  44. Been using the coffee maker for about 10 months it is brilliant, a 5ah barely lasts two brews but that’s fine @makita sandwich toaster next please.

  45. Not gonna lie, I’m shocked Makita came up with a coffee maker before Ryobi. I mean, Ryobi is known for the gimmicky stuff (Cooling Cooler, camping lantern, etc). This gimmick would actually live in my truck. Whether I was working, camping, hunting, tailgating…I’d be using it. I’m not going to add a third battery platform just for the sake of a coffee maker but I will hope my favorite gimmick brand goes ahead and swipes this idea.

  46. Well, when you consider that Back and Decker made the first battery powered/rechargeable cordless drill in 1961, but then Makita came out with their version in 1978 after perfecting it for 10 freakin’ years, they are definitely considered pioneers in this industry.

  47. Think about it, the coffee maker is a heating element, so it is a dead short, drawing a lot out of the batteries in a short amount of time.

  48. Now makita needs to have it in more stores not alot of these offerings are at home depot i wish i could buy a coffee maker or robot vac at the depot

  49. I have the xdt16z and just purchase impact xps standard socket set today.

    Two more things that is missing from the list is their flashlights/job site work lights and on site radios. At Home or on a work site you can’t work without light and tunes. Makita disco.

  50. I’m planning on buying a power tool set. But I’m have a hard time deciding on Kobalts XTR lineup Makita or skil.

  51. Great video! I have the Metric and SAE sets. I ended up getting both the 3/8” and 1/4” sets. Use them quite a bit. The socket holder is nice and compact. Easy to store.

  52. Hands down, my impact driver… Bought a home in March, I’ve had that thing in my hands many times already, from a tool bench build, to a waterline deck, to a kitchen faucet replacement just this afternoon. My Makita Impact is my #1 tool.

  53. I love makita.
    I love how they think outside the box for tools that pair with their batteries.

    As far as coffee on the job. It doesn’t get any better than the dewalt power station, oxx coffee box, and black rifle coffee ( freedom fuel, or black beard’s delight ). Not in the kcup, but in the mesh make your own kcup with fresh ground coffee. Your welcome for the tip.

  54. I just bought my first Makita socket set a week ago, it is 1/4 drive. Some people do not have a impact wrench or driver because they can not afford one.

  55. Makita is all we use at work. Everyone in production to our service techs. They have an answer for everything

  56. Only makita items I own are the xps bits and and the gold bits and the magnetic adapters I use my own sockets I have a ton of impact sockets never bought them makita sockets @vcgconstruction

    1. @Charles Eye average here is 115 and up very true on soaking your shirt and relying on evaporative cooling

    2. Summers where I am average over 100°F. Believe me, moving air that hot around your body just serves to dry you out faster. Better to soak your shirt in water and rely on evaporative cooling.

  57. I drink more energy drinks then coffee but what ever way that helps you function do it the coffee maker is cool @Vcgconstruction

  58. Makita has been around for a long time and they make decent to good tools I think Makita is more DIY professional use where Ryobi is DIY rigid is DIY some tools can be used professionally but my point is they’re not like Milwaukee and DeWalt for the pros but Makita is very close like I said they been around forever

    1. I work with about 10 guys four of us have Makita the rest all have DeWalt we switch back and forth when we’re all in the same room working together and you’re wrong the makitas are the professional standard the dewalts feel like crap in your hand after you’ve been using the makitas

  59. Never mind the coffee maker makita come up with a hoseless palm nailer don’t let milwaukee have all the fun get it together

  60. I’ve been wanting to get some tools, but all from the same brand. I’ve been thinking either milwaukee or makita, but I’m not sure.

  61. God’s honest truth I don’t have anything mikta I’m almost 100% DeWalt on power tools and my hand tools and impact sockets are anything and everything lol I’m not going to lie I get what ever wrenches sockets pilers and everything else I can get on sale right now I’m a poor farm boy that trys to get a head for his family and hopefully leave something for my boys they can use. My father and I are still using hand tools my grandpa had 40 to 50 yrs ago and they are not all craftsman a lot of them are Japan or some other over seas made tool I’m hoping to be able to pass them down to my son’s and grandkids someday I’m proud to say my son’s are the 4th generation to use the same tools

  62. I’m scared to look and see how much the coffee maker and robot are. I have the sockets and other makita tools.

  63. Got the Gold impact bits in my tool box. Also use the sawzall blades love them. In a extension list Vince,can you please talk about : 1-the hybrid vacum. 2-the systainer cooler. 3-the 36v platform. made with two 18v batterie. 4- the 3/8 shock made for impact driver. 5- Miss Makita 😍😁🇫🇷 thanks.

  64. Recently purchased the 36v top end string trimmer and this …Makita XBU04PTV Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 18V X2 (36V) LXT Blower Vacuum Attachment Kit (5.0Ah), Teal

    Man that blower vaccum is unbelievable and gets a lot of attention. The trimmer is the most powerful in industry equal to 1 hp. Balanced like no other !!

  65. I love the xdt16. Been on Milwaukee for years and I actually just made the jump to makita for the impact driver the past couple months and now I’m finding more and more solutions from them. Great OPE.

    1. Back in 2000 the main tool competition companies were DeWalt and Milwaukee. I bought the Dewalt 18 volt Hammer Drill and a friend got the Milwaukee. Now I’m not much for bragging but once in a while something needs to be said. We stuck a stainless steel rod between chucks of both drills tying them together then tested their power. Both were 18 volt but the DeWalt spun the Milwaukee backwards and my buddy’s drill started to smoke and that’s when we stopped. It was a hard test because both drills were loaded with torque but he and I are both big guys so we managed it without Injury. Don’t try that at home. Some of these tools are powerful enough to pull your shoulder out of socket if you’re not stronger than the tool. I still have my DeWalt drill and the other Hammer Drill and they both still work perfectly but they’re old and I need to replace one of the chucks. I have not tested the Makita against any other tool but I wouldn’t recommend it simply for safety’s sake. But all three of the big name brands can hold their own these days. Edit…I put some WD-40 into the frozen chuck on that drill and it wouldn’t budge. It was rusted solid. So I did the same thing again and again. Still not freed up. So I took a step rid and placed on the end of the jaws and smacked a few god times with a hammer and that frees the chuck up. So ALL of my DeWalt tools work flawlessly now. I will also say that I like a lot of Makita tools. I bought the corded Makuta 1/4 horse power router kit with a ton of attachments but I still wasn’t quite happy with it. It just seemed incomplete. So I also bought an 18 volt charger, several 5.0 amp hour 18 volt batteries and the battery powered 1/4 horse power trim router to complete the kit and I love it now! The quality is incredible and I now have ALL the attachments that I could find for this router kit…and all for under $700 total. Very sweet buy.

  66. 🤣🤣🤣 at the “fermenting” while wearing the jacket! 🤣🤣 i have all (barring the jacket and vacuum) and am VERY satisfied. Great video, Vince! Thanks and God bless #theverycoolgang! 😁👍✌

    1. Dang! I knew I missed the boat on that one. I could been sitting back at home in my easy chair and getting paid for it too! I gotta use better business sense from now on.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    1. 5 cups coffee is good for a 5ah unless not doing much work just chilling slaking the work and drinking coffee all day ha

    2. @Lesley Boeder DeWalt came out with one a long time ago and its ugly as sin. This one is way better. You can sometimes find them on Ebay. That’s where I saw one a few weeks ago.

    3. @Lesley Boeder Maybe Makita holds the patent for the cordless coffeemaker? That could explain why no other company has made one so far. Dewalt held the patent for a contractor’s radio with charger until about two years ago. That’s why we’re seeing Milwaukee and Ridgid offer one. Milwaukee and Bosch got sued when they made such radios before Dewalts patent expired.

  67. Hello Vince ,I am curious you kept saying 3/8 on the sockets,all I’m seeing is 1/4. Am I missing something,3/8 would be nice but for the price 1/4 will do. Thank you and have a great day.

  68. Great video, just wish more would smash the likes on your produced videos. As of this comment, seen by 1422, liked 153

  69. Thanks Vince! I’m a Makita kinda guy… Recovery after 2 transplants is going well… Can’t wait to use my tools again!

  70. Use SAE Makita 9/16 socket everyday on TDC connections for commercial HVAC installation. Need that vacuum. Too dope! Thanks for the vid Vince awesome content & a dope list!! #VeryCoolGang

  71. I have the Makita drill/hammer drill that I use all the time and love that thing. Now I need to get that impact driver.

  72. I have both makitas impact sets and love them. I also bought there 10 inch dual bevel battery operated miter saw and wouldn’t change it for any other miter saw out on the market right now. Thanks for all the videos u and the misses do at the home depot. LETS GO

  73. It would be nice to know if these Makita impact sockets are thin walled or not. Because it was not mentioned in this video. Also you were asking why people might not have an impact driver? Well the biggest reason I can think of why somebody might not want to use one is because they are so fudging loud the noise really penetrates and carries through the whole neighborhood. I love impacts just wish you would come back and have some reason to want to cover again those hydraulic ones. Which are a somewhat quieter / less piercing. BUT also as for the different action on hydraulics I was also really interested to know if that different action will make them less easily snap the socket adapter. Because with a regular 1/4 inch impact driver with hex collet are so powerful these days it will just tear up those adaptors real easy. Assuming the bolt is stuck, the shank of the adapter (or nutsetter) is the weakest link in the chain. I have heard that maybe the Husky adapters are perhaps a little bit more durable. But it would also be great to see some testing the hydraulics vs the regular impacts on this specific situation. Please try to cover this !??!?? Maybe?? For example if they release a new or updated tool in this product category. Or to compare against one of those ‘special modes’ that Makita has on the buttons. Many thanks for considering this. Love you guys @ VCG.

  74. I want one of those Stay Puft Marshmallow Man jackets. I think I can plumb a leafblower into it. I would have to put a toxic gas filter on it though for after lunch fumes. 🙂

  75. That coffee maker is revolutionary to me haha
    Not in the platform but would for a sweet deal on the coffee maker kit!

  76. I’ve been using a ryobi for 6 years now have a new Makita the 99 dollar one the ryobi puts in 3 inch black coarse screws with ease the Makita don’t seem to get a bite with the same bit the better model of Makita I need I guess

  77. SAE & Metric, couldn’t beat $20 for both sets. Already used them to level my Delta table saw extension tables, rails.

  78. #5 is a life saver I’ve got them to remove fan motors, housing for ACs great tool to have I’ve got the standard. And I enjoy my impact driver from them too

  79. Agree some nice stuff! Like the coffee maker and jacket looks nice but I don’t like the placement of the fan pack in the back sticks out a lot. Thx for sharing

  80. I’ve got both of the socket sets Vince! Haven’t used them but just in case. 😂 I’m so addicted to Makita, I have a work tool set and a home tool set. I’m starting to go broke. 🤣

    1. @yobryan88 now THERES some expensive tools! I used to work in a body shop and bought Snap-on and Mac tools all the time. Blue Point makes some pretty decent air tools as well and you can get them through the Snap-on dealer (or at least you used to be able to when I did body work). The Snap-on air drills will spin just about any other air powered drill backwards. Very good name brand…and now everyone knows why you’re always broke🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    2. Can’t be broke if you are filled of Makita tools 😅
      Me too I am addicted to Makita and Snap-On 🤤😵😭

  81. @VGC construction doing a Makita video!?!? 2020 is so unpredictable. Next thing Nick will give up his DeWalts 🤣🤣🤣

    1. Same here. Itll be collecting so much dog hair from our German Shepherds that I’ll be having to write IOUs to Makita for repairs.😆

  82. Makita Also makes a really awesome corded miter saw well its in my opinion. And that coffee maker I have to get!! Thanks for the list VCG SMASH THE LIKE BUTTON

  83. Should I buy the Makita vacuum cleaner robot for house use?? Or should I choose other brand?

    1. Pick up both at the HD after seeing you use them repeatedly. Have standard and metric thank you for that they are quite handy
