The verdictOur take

The DDF482 is Makita's brushed 18V LXT drill driver, a 2-speed 62Nm tool with a 13mm keyless chuck, 21 torque settings and 1.1kg bare. It is a straightforward drill driver for general fixing and pilot holes, with 38mm in wood. We rate it a sound no-frills pick for LXT owners; the brushless DDF485 weighs the same 1.1kg, and the DDF489 gives more torque at 73Nm.
