$160.00
Third place finish. Made 279 ft-lb torque, 8.5 in progress on lag bolt (best), 8.29 second average. Has timber screw mode that made huge positive difference. Reviewer impressed with DeWalt's improvements.
Snap-On
Impact Wrench
$746.00
Made 315 ft-lb torque (2nd highest), 7.5 in progress, 9.48 second average. Assembled in USA but reviewer called $746 'way overpriced' - not as compact, pretty heavy, doesn't perform as well as less expensive competition.
Makita

$160.00
Made 247 ft-lb torque (performed better than advertised 220 ft-lb), 6.82 in progress, just under 12 second average. Compact at 5.5 in length, hits hard but doesn't vibrate too badly.

$156.00
Made 227 ft-lb torque, 6.25 in progress, 13.11 second average. Very compact at 4.8 in length, heaviest at 4.02 lbs. Hits hard but is a 'real hand shaker' with significant vibration.
Ridgid
Impact Wrench
$115.00
Made 192 ft-lb torque, 5.25 in progress, just over 14 second average. Very compact at 4.5 in, makes high RPM which helps performance. Has 'intense case of the shakes' with vibration.
Skil
Impact Wrench
$120.00
Made 141 ft-lb torque (came very close to 150 ft-lb rating), 4.38 in progress, 15.58 second average. Loudest at 93 dB but vibrates the least of all brands tested so far.

Seesii
Impact Wrench
$100.00

Ryobi
OnePlus HP Impact Wrench
$95.00
Made only 88 ft-lb torque (claims 160 ft-lb), 3.25 in progress, 32.5+ second average. Lightest at 3.45 lbs but doesn't make enough RPM or torque. Really struggled with lag bolt tests.
