Pro Tool Reviews, in a report produced in partnership with The Home Depot, identified four Makita Pro Tool Innovation Award winners available through the retailer. The products include three cordless tools and an impact-bit accessory, with listed prices ranging from $5.47 to $3,015; availability and prices may change.
Pro Tool Reviews has highlighted four Makita products that it says are available at The Home Depot and were recognized in the Pro Tool Innovation Awards: an 18V brad nailer, a 40V rebar tying tool, an 18V right-angle impact wrench and an impact-bit accessory. The report was produced in partnership with Home Depot, and the listed prices range from $5.47 to $3,015.
The cordless brad nailer, Makita’s 18V LXT Brushless 2-inch 18-gauge Brad Nailer (XNB04), is listed at $369 as a bare tool. Pro Tool Reviews says it drives 18-gauge nails from 9/16 inch to 2 inches, holds up to 110 nails and has tool-free depth adjustment. The report also says it fires up to twice as fast as the preceding XNB01 and weighs 6.1 pounds in working condition, more than 1.5 pounds less than that earlier model.
The 40V max XGT Brushless 16-Gauge Rebar Tying Tool (GRT01) is listed at $3,015 as a bare tool. According to the report, it can tie wire mesh and rebar up to #9, has six tie-strength settings and can make up to 3,600 ties per charge with a 2.5Ah battery. Pro Tool Reviews describes its ties as up to 65% stronger than those from the previous 18V LXT tool, while noting the GRT01 is a larger unit.
The remaining selections are the 18V LXT Brushless 3/8-inch Angle Impact Wrench, priced at $279 as a bare tool, and the Impact XPS Mag Boost sleeve, listed at $5.47. The report gives the wrench ratings of up to 250 foot-pounds of fastening torque and 390 foot-pounds of nut-busting torque. It says the sleeve uses two rare-earth magnets and offers up to 10 times the screw-holding strength of standard power bits. These performance figures come from the source report, not independent testing presented here.
Tools for Distinct Jobsite Tasks
The four products address different practical needs rather than forming a single kit: finish carpentry, rebar tying, access to fasteners in confined spaces and keeping screws on a driver bit. That range may help shoppers compare an award-winning tool with the task and equipment they already use, instead of treating the award itself as a buying recommendation.
Prices also span very different purchase decisions. The $3,015 rebar tying tool is aimed at specialized concrete and reinforcement work, while the $5.47 magnetic sleeve is a low-cost accessory. The two cordless tools are listed as bare tools, so buyers should check whether batteries and chargers are included separately and account for the cost of a compatible platform.
The report’s partnership with Home Depot is relevant when weighing its retailer and availability framing. It supplies product specifications and listed prices, but does not establish that every store has stock or that the prices remain current. Readers can use the details as a shortlist and verify the exact listing before purchasing.

Four Picks From Seven Makita Awards
The Pro Tool Innovation Awards recognize products across multiple categories. The supplied report says that this year’s program covered 15 categories and that Makita received seven awards. The four products in this article are the Makita winners the report identified as available at Home Depot; it also names three other winners: a 40V XGT flathead grinder, a cordless tower work and multi-directional light, and a 40V XGT motor unit.
The article is part of a series covering award-winning products from several brands, following earlier coverage of Milwaukee, DeWalt and Ryobi. The awards provide the editorial frame for the product roundup. The source material does not provide judging criteria, comparative test results or details about how the four products performed against competing models, so those points should not be inferred from the award designation.

Stock, Pricing and Test Basis
The source says the products are available at Home Depot, but it does not specify which stores carry them, whether online inventory is available now or when its prices were checked. Retail stock and pricing can change, so the listed figures should not be treated as live quotes. The three bare-tool prices also do not say whether batteries or chargers are included; the report labels those products bare tools.
Several performance statements use terms such as “up to”, but the source material does not describe test conditions, comparison baselines beyond the named predecessor in the brad-nailer claim, or independent verification. It also does not provide the award judges’ reasoning or comparative results for the other products. The report identifies three additional Makita award winners but does not establish whether those are currently stocked at Home Depot.
Check Listings Before Buying
Shoppers interested in any of the four products can check Home Depot’s current product listings or contact a local store for today’s price and inventory. For cordless tools, they should confirm battery-platform compatibility and whether a battery and charger are sold separately. Buyers comparing the performance claims can consult Makita’s product specifications and manuals for operating details and limitations.
The supplied report does not announce a future product launch or another award-related milestone. The next useful update for consumers would be confirmation of current stock, prices and accessory details from the retailer; those points remain subject to change.
Key Questions
Which four Makita products does the report identify?
It names the XNB04 18V brad nailer, the GRT01 40V rebar tying tool, an 18V 3/8-inch angle impact wrench and the Impact XPS Mag Boost accessory.
What prices does the report list?
The listed prices are $369 for the brad nailer, $3,015 for the rebar tying tool, $279 for the angle impact wrench and $5.47 for the Mag Boost sleeve. The first three are identified as bare-tool prices. Check Home Depot for current pricing.
Are batteries and chargers included with the cordless tools?
The source labels the nailer, rebar tying tool and impact wrench as bare tools, so buyers should check each listing to confirm what is included and whether a compatible battery and charger must be purchased separately.
Does the report confirm the products are in stock at every Home Depot?
No. It describes the products as available at Home Depot but gives no store-by-store inventory information. Current stock and online availability are not confirmed by the supplied report.
