a Winner
This is one of the best 12 volt drills I have bought over the last 40 years. I also bought one as a gift for my sister but she couldn’t get the battery in and out so she never used it. For me it is a light version of a hammer drill that I bring when I work out of town and might get surprised on a job where maybe I have to drill into block walls. I used it in Alabama on a hotel job where I ended up drilling 400 holes into concrete block walls to mount thermostats and it did the job and didn’t wear out (which I expected it to). It also has two speeds fast speed around 1500 RPM and of course is variable speed. It has a clutch so you can use with hex bit to use as a screw driver. It is a solid purchase. Milwaukee has a lot of very overpriced tools but this is a bargain. They have a whole line of 12 volt tools that are light to medium duty. I have good number of 12 volt and 18 volt Milwaukee tools and this ranks near the top for usefulness. I have at least 12 to 18 batteries for the 12 volt Milwaukee tools and most are the worthless small 12 volt batteries – buy the 5 amp hour or larger 12 volt batteries. Also I have tried aftermarket batteries (Waitley) from Amazon for Milwaukee these knock-off batteries don’t seem to work well- they lock out and you have to take them out and put back in. Another problem is they tend to come loose and fall out. The opposite is true of the Milwaukee batteries that are hard to remove. I have 2 or 3 18volt Milwaukee hammer drills and they aren’t anything special.My top 3 brands of power tools are Milwaukee, DeWalt and Makita and then everything else. Special shout out to Bosch and maybe Hitachi and of course those expensive European brands. What about Hilti? -overpriced but suppose to be very heavy duty I’ve only used Hilti’s that were already worn out.Other notes: Milwaukee drill bits suck and are overpriced. Bosch makes better drill bits and always use oil or WD40 when drilling metal no matter the brand or you will immediately wear out your bits esp. expensive bits.I have some after market batteries for 18 volt Makita and for Paslode that work fine but I haven’t tried any for 20 volt DeWalt yet but I’ve mostly switched over to Milwaukee cordless.When you buy cordless tools don’t be like me and have 50 batteries for 6 to 8 brands of tools stick with a good brand with lots of tools (skip those Harbor Freight deals) unless you aren’t doing much but light DIY stuff.

Great drill, great craftsmenship.
This is a great drill. It is small, robust, powerful and easy to find. The chuck is durable and overall craftsmenship is excellent.

Small Solid Durable, but Light Duty
Hand tools are my life.I carry several large dewalt drills including a dedicated hammer drill in my rolling toolbox, and carry this little one in my hand held toolbag.I love it because it’s small. It’s durable and solid.BUT this is simply NOT a heavy duty tool. It’s a convenient tool for small jobs.

Powerful little drill
Powerful little drill and the hammer drill function work way better then I thought it would!
Not impressed –
Itâs Milwaukee
Not much to say besides the power is great, lightweight, fits almost anywhere, and paired with the 4.0/5.0 battery it can push bits faster and have a better battery life

It is authentic
Itâs legit. I compared it to my other brand new m12 hammer drill from HD and itâs authentic. It seems to be brand new. No signs of use and doesnât seem to be refurbished.

Seems to be authentic.
I’m not really going to review this product, I think everyone already knows the M12 lineup are really great tools and it does the job it’s made to do. The question that I think everyone is asking is: How can this be such a good deal? It’s half of MSRP. Is it refurbished? Returned?I’m pretty confident that this is just arbitrage, the sellers are just buying combo deals from Home Depot and other authorized retailers then selling the individual tools separately. Right now if I wanted to have spent $220 I could have gotten a really good combo deal at Home Depot with this drill, the impact driver, two batteries, and a bit kit. It’s a Labor Day sale, some of the combos at HD are more than 50% below MSRP – for something you can walk into a local store and buy, 100% sure it’s legit. I notice the same seller I bought this from also has the driver available, and the drill/driver combo is very common.There’s no Milwaukee package, because the combo comes in a single box. There’s no bag/case because the combo only comes with one bag for both tools. There’s no charger or batteries, because the combo either didn’t come with them, or because the seller is selling those individually too. Basically, someone spent the $220 I don’t have to get a really good deal on some tools, then they re-sold them for well under MSRP but still for more than they paid for them.The drill I got was just in a box in a plastic bag, with the instructions. Milwaukee includes separate instructions for each tool in a combo, and the plastic bag is the same sort genuine tools come in. I compared the drill to another tool I have, the plastic is identical in color and texture, the rubber grip material feels identical. There’s no sign that the item is anything but authentic. It also doesn’t appear to be used, it’s perfectly clean with no dust, finger prints, etc. There is oil/grease anywhere I expect to find it on a new tool, but no grease marks on the handle that would indicate use. There aren’t any witness marks on the battery contacts either, so the sign anyone even powered it on.It looks like someone opened up a combo pack, took out this drill in its plastic bag, stuck it into a carboard box along with the manual, and taped it up. Milwaukee could deny warranty on it, that’s true. But since it cost HALF of MSRP, I could just buy another one if it fails and not have spent more than if I bought it from Home Depot. I would need to buy two, and have them both fail in the same way, to be SOL. And I’ve heard many anecdotes of Milwaukee honoring the warranty anyway.Bottom line: Seems legit, and for the price it’s definitely worth it. They do lose a star though, because they could have packaged it better.

Adquirà este taladro pensando que podrÃa servirme como atornillador pero más fuerte, al momento de recibirlo medi cuenta que no trae caja original viene en una bolsa blanca, creà que podÃa ser usado pero no estaba completamente nuevo. Como dije antes lo adquirà para utilizarlo para cosas más sencillas pero al momento de recibirlo medà cuenta que se siente bastante robusto, y con mucha potencia. Milwaukee se a convertido en una marca de preferencia para mi.

When I saw the product online, I was a little doubtful. However, after it was delivered to me, I was amazed to see how high quality and durable the product was. It is just as described on the site. I’m happy with the item, thank you. It is worth the money.
