  The PxC brushless one has been excellent, highly recommended: https://www.bunnings.co.nz/ozito-pxc-18v-13mm-cordless-brush…

  Or if you already have batteries: https://www.bunnings.co.nz/ozito-pxc-18v-13mm-brushless-hamm…

  I'd go with ozito / pxc / Ryobi - low cost and they have a huge range of low price tools with good consumer warranty.

  Or DeWalt - more expensive higher quality but lots of opportunity to do price match less 15% deals as they are sold by both Bunnings and mitre10 and a lot of other stores.

  If it's very rarely used you could consider corded drill so you don't go to use it after not using it for 2 years and discover the battery died.

  Just going to say the same. For low use items I go with Ozito and take a photo of the receipt cause when you come to needing it for an exchange the toner would probably have faded away!

  If you find that the Ozito has got loads of use and the warranty has finished then upgrade to DeWalt for the reasons the other post says.

  So far I've found some Ozito stuff to last way longer with hard use than I expected

  I can also recommend Ozito if it’s just for DIY use.

  One obvious recommendation is to stick with the same brand so you can use the batteries interchangeably between different tools.

  If you already have batteries from a particular brand, it makes sense to stick with them. If not, it's worth thinking ahead about what other tools you might need. Once you commit to a brand, you'll likely stay with it for this reason.
