For contractors already on Makita’s 18 V platform who need a quiet, fume-free barrow for indoor or night work. Homeowners get far more load per dollar elsewhere.

Pros
- Runs on the 18 V LXT packs Makita tool owners already have, swapping in a second pair when the first runs down.
- Three forward speeds and a slow reverse give fine control around forms, gates and trenches.
- A disc brake plus a motor brake hold a full load on a slope, and the 3-year warranty is the longest here.
Cons
- Tool only: four 18 V packs and a charger cost extra on top of a very high price.
- The highest price per pound of capacity in the category.
- The dump bucket tips by hand, not by motor.
