I have a Makita 6337D 14.4v cordless drill. Had it about 5 years without any issues whatsoever except, you guessed it, batteries. The original batteries will last long enough to get most minor household jobs done. The replacement Makita batteries I purchased 3 years ago are pretty much useless. I just checked Amazon and they want $80 for 1 battery, $145 for two! I like the Makita, but not that much.
To make a long story short I have started looking at cordless drills. I don't want anything larger than 18 volt, I prefer a smaller and easier to handle drill. I want to keep the price down around $150. I have seen a nice Bosch 18v for $180, just a bit over my limit.
What do you use? Likes, dislikes? Battery life and replacement cost?
