Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days 2024 is in full swing with some of the most highly-anticipated deals on camping gear, men's sneakers, watches, and other everyday essentials, but this annual fall sale is one of the best opportunities to find great deals on DeWalt power tools.
DeWalt tools are well-known for dipping in price during Amazon's big sales, and this one includes some old favorites and some new additions. DeWalt's deals on 20V 5Ah batteries are primed to be some of the most popular, with savings of over $125 on its bestselling two-pack. DeWalt's other well-known bestseller—the 20V cordless drill and impact driver kit—is also back on sale, as is the popular Oscillating Multi-Tool, except this time, it's part of a kit with a battery. Surprisingly, DeWalt is also knocking down the price of several high-quality step ladders by $100 or more. After Men's Journal scoured DeWalt's deals during October Prime Day, we found these five that are worthy of a spot in your tool cabinet.
DeWalt's Oscillating Multi-Tool is wickedly popular because of its almost endless utility, and it's one of October Prime Day's best deals from the yellow tool brand. These can slice, sand, polish, trim, and do many other tasks with the proper attachments (many of which are on sale as well), and are especially useful for working on hard-to-reach areas when making home improvements. This model is brushless, which makes it more efficient, and uses DeWalt's Quick Change system that makes attaching blades a breeze. You'll normally find this tool on sale alone without the battery for around the same price, so pick one up before the sale ends on Oct. 9.
What Shoppers Are Saying: "Great tool for fine work. This is an odd tool that easily becomes a go-to for so many things. As someone renovating an old house, it's incredible."

The 20V Max Cordless Drill and Impact Driver Kit is an Amazon shopper favorite with a firm grasp on the No. 1 overall spot among power tool combo kits. It's the most entry-level package offered by the brand, but it's also one of the most useful because of the powerful two-speed drill that can clock up to 1,500 rpm and the impact driver's 1,500 inch-pounds of torque. These are the building blocks of good DIY and are plenty reliable as jobsite tools, and for over $100 off the normal price, they continue to be one of Amazon's best deals.
What Shoppers Are Saying: "Owning an apartment building and working in construction, I needed powerful tools that could tackle anything I threw at them. My old tools just weren’t cutting it anymore, so I decided to upgrade—and I’m so glad I did.

Whether it's July's Prime Day or this month's Prime Big Deal Days, many folks know it's the best time to pick up an extra set of DeWalt batteries, and this 20V 5Ah two-pack is the best overall value for the money. They can last for hours depending on the tool you're using, and together, you can get a full day of work out of them. What's most convenient is that they include an LED fuel gauge that tells you how much life is left in them. There's no charger in this pack, but you need one, they're also on sale for October Prime Day.
What Shoppers Are Saying: "Bought some off-brand batteries that just don't have the run time of the DeWalt. Much cheaper than the real deal, but sometimes you just need the runtime. My wife uses them for her DeWalt chainsaw when she goes on disaster relief work."

The DeWalt 20V Max Leaf Blower might be one of the more timely deals of Prime Big Deal Days—it's right on time for yard cleanup. It offers the convenience of a lightweight build at just under 7 pounds, a trigger lock that'll have your index finger thanking you, and a variable speed switch to match the area and type of debris you're looking to clear. It'll blow air at speeds of up to 135 mph which means it's well-suited for areas like patios and walkways to medium-sized yards. It'll come with a 4Ah battery, which is fine, but we'd recommend picking up at least one 6Ah battery—on sale for October Prime Day—to help get the most time out of your leaf blower.
What Shoppers Are Saying: "I was able to clean out two one-car garages, each with a floor full of fall leaves and dust, on a single battery charge. It is powerful, lightweight, and easy to handle."

All professionals and most houses need a step ladder, and this 4-footer from DeWalt is an excellent option. It's made from non-conductive fiberglass, which is safe, durable, and very strong, and it meets the safety requirements set by both ANSI and OSHA. It can take on up to 300 pounds of weight and has well-treaded rubber feet to make sure it stays put when you're on it. Conveniently, the top was designed with magnetic trays for keeping nails and screws in addition to multiple tool slots and even a clip slot for paint trays. If you need a little extra height, this ladder is also on sale in a 6-foot model.
What Shoppers Are Saying: "I bought this 4-foot ladder to use in my unfinished basement space and general low-height areas around the house. This ladder is solid, very sturdy, and light enough to carry around with ease."
