DeWalt’s Game-Changing Tools: 10 Products That Will Save Your Back and Revolutionize Your DIY Projects

If you’ve ever spent a day working in your garage, tackling a home improvement project, or laboring on a construction site, you know the toll it can take on your body. The aches, the strains, the constant reaching for ice packs—it’s all too familiar for anyone who’s put their back into their work. But what if there was a way to make those grueling tasks a little easier? Enter DeWalt, the brand that’s been a staple in workshops and job sites for decades, known for its durable, high-performance tools. This time, they’ve outdone themselves with a lineup of products designed to save your back and make your projects run smoother than ever.

From snow removal to lawn care, DeWalt has engineered tools that not only get the job done but also prioritize your comfort and safety. These products are designed to reduce the physical strain of manual labor, distribute weight more evenly, and help prevent the fatigue that leads to those dreaded backaches. While this article isn’t a substitute for medical advice, it’s clear that these DeWalt innovations could be a game-changer for anyone looking to protect their body while getting things done.

Here are 10 DeWalt products that will save your back and revolutionize your DIY projects:


1. 20V MAX 10 in. Brushless Cordless Snow Shovel

Shoveling snow is the bane of winter, and it’s not just inconvenient—it’s a leading cause of back injuries during the colder months. The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons even has a guide on how to shovel snow safely to avoid strains and sprains. But why risk it when you can let technology do the heavy lifting?

DeWalt’s 20V MAX 10 in. Cordless Snow Shovel is a game-changer. Part of the company’s 20V MAX Tool Platform, this lightweight (just 13.23 pounds) snow shovel is designed with your comfort in mind. It features an ergonomic pole that adjusts to fit your height, reducing the strain on your back. The shovel works like a mini snowblower, picking up snow with a rotor and spitting it out up to 20 feet away. It can clear a path 10 inches wide and six inches deep, and with a fully charged 4Ah 20V MAX battery, you can run it for up to 20 minutes. Say goodbye to back-breaking snow removal and hello to a pain-free winter.


2. Atomic 20V MAX Brushless Cordless Oscillating Multi-Tool

Oscillating multi-tools are some of the most versatile tools you can add to your collection. Originally designed for the medical field to remove plaster casts without harming the skin, these tools have found their way into workshops and garages everywhere. They can be used for cutting, sanding, grinding, and more, depending on the blade you attach.

DeWalt’s Atomic 20V Brushless Cordless Oscillating Multi-Tool takes versatility to the next level. It features a built-in LED light for illuminating dark workspaces and a lock on/off switch, so you don’t have to hold it on with your thumb during long jobs. The kit includes a 4.0Ah battery, a battery charger, general-purpose bi-metal blade, fast wood-cutting HCS blade, universal accessory adapter (so you can use non-DeWalt blades), and a tool bag. Whether you’re prying tiles from the wall or floor, this tool makes the job faster and easier, saving your back from unnecessary strain.


3. 20V MAX XR Brushless Cordless Framing Nailer

Framing is the backbone of any construction project, and it takes a lot of nails to hold it all together. Hammering those nails by hand is exhausting, but a nail gun takes most of the effort out of the job. DeWalt’s 20V MAX XR Brushless Cordless 21-Degree Plastic Collated Framing Nailer is a battery-powered drill that ups the convenience factor by reducing the need for electrical cables or air lines.

This nailer can install up to an estimated 530 square feet of subflooring or up to 100 feet of wall framing with a single charged 5Ah battery (DCB205). It’s lightweight, at just 8.65 pounds, before accounting for the weight of the battery and nails. It also has a slot for a Tool Connect chip, which lets you track it using DeWalt’s Tool Connect platform. With this tool, you can drive nails faster and more efficiently than you could with a hammer, all while saving your back from unnecessary strain.


4. Orbital Sander

Sanding is an essential part of finishing any construction or DIY project, especially if you’re working with wood materials. It can smooth surfaces, prepare them for paint or stain, and even remove rust from metal. While you could sand by hand with sandpaper and a sanding block, it’s not the most efficient method.

DeWalt’s battery-powered Brushless Orbital Sander uses electricity to rapidly move sheets of sandpaper, smoothing your rough surfaces in no time. It’s a significant upgrade from manual sanding, reducing the amount of effort and time you’ll need to complete this important task. DeWalt also offers a corded version of this tool if you prefer a constant power source. Either way, this sander is a back-saver, allowing you to focus on the quality of your work rather than the strain on your body.


5. 20V MAX XR Brushless Cordless Blower

Every autumn, the trees drop their leaves, covering your yard in a beautiful but inconvenient blanket of foliage. While the best thing you can do (and the least labor-intensive) is to let the leaves lie where they land, many HOAs and housing authorities require that fallen leaves be cleaned up. Using a conventional rake will get the job done, but a leaf blower makes it faster and easier, reducing the likelihood of backaches and blistered fingers.

DeWalt’s 20V MAX XR Brushless Cordless Blower moves up to 450 cubic feet of air per minute and can achieve wind speeds of 125 mph, using the included concentrator nozzle. It has a lightweight and ergonomic design that DeWalt says “tackles user fatigue.” The kit includes everything you need: the leaf blower, a 20V MAX 5Ah battery, a 12V/20V MAX battery charger, and the concentrator nozzle. With this tool, you can clear your yard of leaves without breaking a sweat—or your back.


6. Self-Propelled 3-in-1 Lawn Mower

Mowing the yard is a regular part of summertime maintenance, but it can be a headache and a backache if your yard is large or features uneven terrain. A self-propelled lawn mower has powered wheels that create forward motion, so all you have to do is follow along and steer.

DeWalt’s 21 in. 196cc RWD Self-Propelled 3-in-1 Mower has variable speed controls, so you can match the mower’s speed to your preferred walking gait. You can also adjust the height from 1.25 inches to 3.75 inches, using a couple of levers. If you need a little extra help, it also has a rear wheel drive mode that pushes the 11-inch rear wheels. The 3-in-1 in the name refers to your options in disposing of your grass clippings: bagging, mulching, or side discharge. This mower is a happy middle ground between a conventional lawn mower and a full-fledged riding mower, significantly lowering strain and making yard work a breeze.


7. Premium Landscaping Harness

Carrying tools and accessories from place to place across the jobsite, garage, or yard can cause fatigue and strain. Using a harness can free your hands, distribute weight, and decrease discomfort. DeWalt’s Premium Landscaping Harness has adjustable straps and a belt so you can fit them to your frame. It also has built-in back support and a padded hip belt.

You can use the harness to help carry some of your DeWalt landscaping tools. It’s compatible with several of DeWalt’s string trimmers, brush saw, and brush cutters. It also has a couple of battery clips so you can carry spare batteries and keep your hands free. DeWalt also offers a simpler battery harness that’s intended only to help you carry spare batteries with you. If you find yourself carrying your yard tools or batteries around a lot, the proper harness takes some of the load off and redistributes it to make you more comfortable and reduce the likelihood that you’ll overtax your back.


8. Pro Backpack on Wheels

A big metal toolbox or tool chest can store and organize your tools and accessories at home or in the workshop, but it’s not the best solution if you need to move your tools from one place to the next. For that, you need a more portable storage solution. A backpack tool bag can carry all of your favorite tools and gadgets while distributing the weight across your shoulders, reducing the risk of injury and leaving your hands free.

DeWalt’s Pro Backpack on Wheels has wheels, so you can roll it to your destination if you prefer not to wear it. The straps tuck away, and you can extend a collapsible handle to pull the bag behind you. It has an IP54 water-resistant rating to help the bag stand up to the elements and protect your tools and other belongings. It has 46 separate pockets, a laptop compartment, and a dedicated compartment for your drill and batteries. On the exterior, you’ll find a dedicated tape clip, a metal carabiner for additional storage, and a U-shaped zipper pull designed to be easily accessible even when wearing work gloves. The Pro Backpack on Wheels splits the difference between robust tool storage and convenient portability for an efficient and comfortable everyday tool storage and transportation solution.


9. Heavy Duty Work Stand

Bending over to work is one of the most reliable ways to hurt your back. A work stand allows you to lift your work materials up to waist height, putting them in a more comfortable position and saving you a backache. DeWalt’s Heavy Duty Work Stand can help take the strain off your back in more ways than one.

The stand is made up of two triangular metal DeWalt saw horses across which you can lay materials. Each saw horse has a load capacity of 1,000 pounds, so you know it will stand up to anything you can lift onto it. When not in use, the saw horses collapse down into a compact rectangle of bars and hinges with a transport latch for carrying it to and from the work site. Made of lightweight aluminum, both saw horses have a combined weight of 15.4 pounds. Bringing your tools and materials up to your level reduces the amount of time you spend hunched over. The work stand’s lightweight, compact design and integrated transport latch make it a lot easier to transport than other work stands.


10. 20V MAX XR Brushless Cordless Impact Driver

If you need to drive a few fasteners around the house every now and then, most of the time an ordinary power drill or driver will do the job. Your basic power drills are usually suitable for drilling into drywall or wooden studs, but they have their limits. If you need to drill into brick walls, concrete floors, or other dense materials, an ordinary drill is going to struggle, and you’ll have to really put your back into it.

Alternatively, you could use a drill that’s designed for drilling through dense materials, like an impact driver. In addition to providing rotation force to drive a fastener, an impact driver also provides forward force from a hammering or impact mechanism. It’s like there’s someone standing behind you hammering the drill into the target material. The upshot is that you can drill into hard materials like concrete a whole lot easier.

DeWalt’s 20V MAX XR Brushless Cordless 3-Speed Impact Driver delivers over a thousand inch-pounds of torque and has an rpm and impacts per minute rate in the thousands, to make drilling into rock a piece of cake. The 20V MAX XR Impact Driver also has a variable speed trigger and three preset speed modes optimized to match the needs of commonly used fasteners, so you can use the right amount of force for your situation. With this tool, you can tackle even the toughest drilling jobs without straining your back.


Methodology: How We Made Our Choices

Each item on this list was chosen for its potential to reduce the likelihood or risk of creating a back injury or exacerbating an existing one. To get onto the list, a product had to meet at least one of the following criteria: either they significantly reduced the amount of manual work required to complete a task, redistributed weight in a safer and more comfortable way, or prevented you from putting your body in precarious, potentially injury-inducing positions. In some cases, products are described by the manufacturer as being designed to reduce strain.

That being said, we can’t make any medical claims or guarantees. Using any tool or power tool comes with a certain amount of risk no matter what you do. No product can make your garage or workshop totally safe. Workshop safety is the result of several factors, including using the right safety equipment and respecting tools safely. It requires understanding the risks and how to avoid them. No product on this list will absolve you of those responsibilities, but they could take a little bit of the load off.
