Unless you are using it everyday for a few hours, the Makita is fine.
I have a 12 V and 18 V Makita and no complaints, 18V dewalt also OK.
30 years ago even the 12 V Makita was the cat's meow, but times have changed.
In the late '40s, pop thought the 1/4" drill you plugged in sure beat the old hand crank!
Also depends on what you are doing - drilling 1-1/2" dia holes thru 20" DF logs I still prefer my old morse taper drive 300 rpm 120vac Sioux drill.
