Ahead of the holiday gifting season, Lowe’s has all of the top pro-approved gifts for handy family members in your life. While some of these gifts may cost a little more money, GOBankingRates was careful to select only top-rated items that cost no more than $200 each.
Get ready to give presents designed with regular use in mind. Keep reading to see which seven Lowe’s items we recommend gifting to handy family members this Christmas.
Men’s Canvas Waist Apron
- Price: $29.99
Always keep your necessary tools on hand when you wear the Carhartt men’s waist apron. Made with strong brown canvas, this apron features an adjustable nylon belt, plenty of pockets (including one small and one pencil pocket) and utility loops.
In a five-star review on the Lowe’s website, AshleyB wrote that this apron is perfect for teams that work out in landscaping nurseries since its thick material is sturdy enough to hold on to pruners and shears.
Surface Protector Paper
- Price: $63.98
The bestselling Ram Board surface protector paper is a must-have for contractors working on every type of project, from construction to repairs. This heavy-duty paper provides temporary floor protection and is reusable, measuring up to 38″ x 100′.
More than 1,000 Lowe’s shoppers purchased it within the last week. Glowing five-star reviews from satisfied customers praised how well the paper protects floors and counters during home renovations and said it’s well worth the cost.
Screwdriver Set
- Price: $39.98
Give the ultimate tool gift set with the Klein tools screwdriver set. This bestselling six-piece set includes 1/4-inch slotted and #2 Phillips in 4-inch round shanks. Additional screwdrivers include a #2 Square, #1, #2 Phillips and three 16-inch slotted tips in 6-inch round shanks.
“I used these screwdrivers to replace all of the outlets in my house and boy are these screwdrivers handy,” wrote DIY Guy in a five-star review. “When you pay a little extra, you expect to get a nice tool. In this case, you really get your money’s worth.”
Hex Nut Driver Set
- Price: $29.98
The bestselling Klein Tools hex nut driver set is so in demand with Lowe’s shoppers that the website notes more than 500 shoppers had purchased this product since last week. Each color-coded nut setter features hex sizes in ¼ inch, 5/16 inch, 3/8 inch, 7/16 inch, 1/2 inch and 9/16 inch.
Currently, 84% of the reviews on the Lowe’s website give this product five stars. Positive reviews highlight the strength of the magnetic tips and ease in use.
Multi-Position Ladder
- Price: $169
Since last week, more than 1,000 shoppers have purchased the Little Giant Ladders multi-position ladder from Lowe’s.
This OSHA-compliant ladder is designed to reach up to 14 feet and 3 inches in extension ladder position and support up to 300 pounds on each side. This ladder weighs 26 pounds, but it is made from lightweight aluminum to ensure easy transportation. A limited lifetime warranty is included with purchase.
Cordless Hammer Drill
- Price: $179
Described as a “mini powerhouse” by Lowe’s shoppers, the DEWALT XR cordless hammer drill can be put to work in all sorts of jobs, projects and applications.
Each drill is equipped with pro-level speed, control and precision. An LED spotlight mode is available to brighten dark work areas, and the drill’s lightweight design makes it easier to access hard-to-reach work areas and stay productive for extended amounts of time.
Car Battery Charger
- Price: $79.99
You might wind up buying the CRAFTSMAN car battery charger for more than just the handy family members on your Christmas gifting list. This charger is compatible with battery types like standard, AGM, deep-cycle and lithium. It charges quickly and is highly reliable and easy to use.
Reviewer Jason wrote in a five-star review how this charger came in handy in Nebraska during a weekend where the temperatures were minus-12 outside.
“With my Chevy Equinox parked outside the whole weekend, it was no surprise my battery was dead on Monday morning,” he said. “Bought this charger and within two hours it took it from 0% to 100%.”
