Makita XT328M Review

The Makita XT328M 3-piece brushless cordless combo kit comes with a variable speed 1/2" hammer driver-drill, a variable speed impact driver with an impressive 1,500 inch-pounds of max torque, and a reciprocal saw that delivers faster, more efficient cutting with its refined crank mechanism design. The XT328M's brushless motor not only eliminates carbon brushes, but also runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life, thanks to its electronic control that optimizes battery energy use. Speaking of batteries, the 18V LXT 4.0Ah battery included in the kit has an on-board LED charge-level indicator and reaches a full charge in only 40 minutes.

Aside from its powerful brushless motor and fast-charging battery, the Makita XT328M 3-piece brushless cordless combo kit boasts the expansive breadth-of-line of the Makita 18V LXT battery platform, which means you can power up the expanding range of Makita tools and accessories with your batteries. The XT328M's hammer driver-drill weighs only 4.2 lbs with the battery, yet delivers a max torque of 530 in.lbs. Its impact driver, on the other hand, weighs only 3.3 lbs with the battery, yet provides an impressive 1,500 in.lbs. of max torque. Finally, the reciprocal saw lets you adjust its stroke speed from 0-2,300 strokes per minute (low) to 0-3,000 strokes per minute (high) with a 1-1/4" stroke length, allowing for faster, smoother cuts.

Whether you're a DIY enthusiast, a woodworking hobbyist, or a construction professional, the Makita XT328M 3-piece brushless cordless combo kit gives you the power, speed, and versatility you need for any job.
