How would you guys rate these for DIY? They'll get moderate work for about a year or so? Thinking about doubling up on some drills to get me by. Not expecting the world but cheaper than a makita kit :smile:

I have used some products heavily and so have some of my friends, only high praise!.

my parkside multi tool.did malfunction ( on/off switch) after a year or heavy use. which they refunded Immediatly no questions.

I've bought 4 parkside units including a drill. Had them 1.5 years used quite a bit. Only thing that went wrong is one of the batteries died, otherwise I'm happy with them.

Got a corded sabre saw that has had a lot of use, it's a great piece of kit. My pressure washer is finally dying, but was kept outside for 4 years and used loads so can't moan. Just keep your receipt for the warranty, I had a toothbrush die after 2 1/2 years and they just sent me a new one after seeing a copy of the receipt.

Bit cheeky calling them 20v, they're what everyone else calls 18v with 8 x 3.6v LiIon cells. On full charge they'll be over 20v, but that's not normally how these things are measured.

DeWalt do the same trick with their 18v kit in the US, but at least they describe them as "20v-Max".

I had the Parkside 10.8v (now 12v!) multitool. It was OK and impressed me with it's capabilities, but when I couldn't find a spare battery for it I bought a Bosch Blue on (for about four times the price) and it's a million miles better. Far more powerful and with a much longer lasting battery. Parkside stuff is good for the price, but don't expect anything like Makita or DeWalt quality.

​I think you mean 5x 3.6v lithium ion cells which is an 18v battery, 8 would be 28.8v nominal.
