The verdictOur take

The DTD154 was a previous-generation 18V LXT brushless driver, a 3-stage 175Nm tool with T-mode for self-drilling screws. Makita UK no longer lists it and it has gone from the main UK retailers; the DTD172 and DTD173 replace it. We keep its page so owners can compare it with what's on sale now, and the compact DTD173 is the one to buy today, with more modes and a lighter body.
