This is a great start to get into the m12 line or add to it. Just the recip saw and multi tool alone make this worth it.

If you are not heavy construction, the m12 line are compact, have decent sales all the time, very powerful for their size. I have m12, Kobalt, and Ryobi cordless tools, and I use m12 the most
I got this set about three years ago and it took me down a rabbit hole of buying more and more M12 tools. If you're not in construction then M12 is all you need. It's compact and very powerful. Great for working in tight spaces.

I don't get it. Why would anyone start their cordless tools with M12 this day in age? I'd understand if you already have 1 or 2 other M12 tools and just want to add to it, but even then I'd consider a more updated line of tools. The de facto baseline power for cordless tools right now is 18V. If I were a pro, I would absolutely invest in M18 tools. If I were a DIY'er, I'd go with the Ryobi for better value in the 18V range. Someone explain or prove me wrong.

I wouldn't recommend this set, but M12 fuel tools will do everything for 95% of people and are smallee/lighter than their 18/20v siblings. Lots of M12 Fuel tools will out perform rival 18v tools. I've built multiple decks with M12 tools over my M18.

third party sold/shipped, one left, plus 33 shipping, is that you JaxPawnll? Joking aside, there are multiple options under $200, but yeah third party sellers fwiw.

I'm not in construction and totally respect the opinion of others who are. However, I use mine a couple of times a week, and you couldn't pry 12v from my cold dead hands and if you could you couldn't replace it in my clenched fists with 18v. My Bosch 18v just gather dust as my 12v Bosch and Milwaukee (ugh 2 systems, I know) paint the town red. The 18v's see the light of day when I need to use a hammer drill of course or a larger bit like an auger. I'll also break out the circular saw occasionally. If I have it handy I might use 18v drill for hole saws because the 12v can choke out of them a bit sometimes.

I carry a reciprocating saw, impact driver, and flexhead drill, flashlight, batteries, and other various hand tools and they all fit in a 13" tool bag. For sake of clarity, I am referring to mostly brushless 12v, not OP's set although I think that's a great deal.
No I am not the Amazon lister...lol I just have an app on my PC that shows me better prices of something I am looking and got excited to share. I almost pulled the trigger until I saw shipping was $35 which is still less than Home Depot.

Note that all of these are the older, non-fuel versions in the M12 lineup.

Are they compatible?

There's nothing stopping a company from making a 60w screwdriver with 10 hours of battery life. It's just that no one who works with tools wants their screwdriver to be the size of an F150 and weight about the same as an F150.

The m12 tools are great, small, (relatively) lightweight tools. People who work with tools know the value of not having their arms fall off when they have to hold their tools in awkward ways for hours.

As for "pros", they tend to have bunches of everything, and not a single system. Each system has its strong and weak parts.

And it's not about "proving you wrong"; this isn't a pro wrestling match.

M12 is nice if you get the fuel line. The standard M12 line is practically useless.

I am surprised by the comments that the standard m12 is useless. I have had the standard m12 drill for a few years and I have never had it fail on me with one exception. it started smoking when using what I can only presume was a bad knock off battery. The battery was trashed but the drill lives on.
In the past month alone I have run a 2" hole saw bit through a green treated 4x4. run 16 1/2 inch holes through another 4x4. I have also used a drum sanding attachment to clearance a piece of steel pipe. Not sure how much more one could ask of any cordless drill. Admittedly the batteries do not last terribly long when doing heavy usage / high torque work, but the drill itself has been rock solid. I would definitely want to invest in something more hefty if I made a living using a cordless, but for the average homeowner M12 is a solid choice IMHO. I am sure the Fuel is better but for the average joe it is likely not worth the premium in price.
