For most home users the corded Bosch Professional GWS 880 at around 126 dollars is the best overall buy, because it is the cheapest credible pick here, has no battery to charge or replace, and carries by far the largest review base. If you already own cordless tools, buy the skin that matches your battery: the Ryobi R18AG at 141 dollars for the huge ONE+ system, the DeWalt DCG406N at 199 dollars or the Makita DGA504Z at 229 dollars for trade-grade XR and LXT brushless power, or the Milwaukee M18 FUEL at 286 dollars if you live in the red M18 ecosystem. Step up to the Makita DGA508Z LXT at 338 dollars only if you want the top Makita 18V paddle-switch grinder and you already own LXT batteries, since it is the priciest here and is sold as a skin. The single best value, though, is the corded Bosch.
