My friend works on rental properties and relies on his impact driver daily. Unfortunately, his old one has just stopped working. Can anyone suggest the best impact driver available right now?

I'd suggest picking up the DCF870. Home Depot currently has a deal where you can get a battery kit for $199 and score a free tool, which includes the DCF860. You could buy the kit, then return it and keep just the DCF860 for about $106 plus tax. Pretty sweet deal!
If you want the top-tier choice, go for the DCF860. It’s incredibly powerful and can drive multiple screws in no time—way ahead of any other impact driver on the market, including Milwaukee's offerings. For something more compact, consider the DCF850; it’s designed to be shorter and perfect for tight spaces. If noise is a concern, check out the hydraulic DCF870 for a quieter experience. But if you're looking for a budget-friendly option, the DCF840 is solid enough for most tasks without all the extra features.
Awesome breakdown! I can only vouch for the 860—it’s a beast when you need power!
Just to clarify, are you recommending the 870 or 860? Seems like you mentioned both!
