from Hagatna Guam
"My Milwaukee came in a small case .it is a small power tool with big ambishtions, I was able to tackel many typs of projects with no problems. its configeration is 2nd to none. when i first held my Milwaukee it fit my hand like a glove, and the power it puts out is amizing. any one who held and use this hard working power tool, will tell you that there is hardly any project that this cordless drill can"t complete. thats is why I rate my Miwaukee cordless drill with the highest if not higher than 5 stars, and I highly recommand this power tool to the men who loves their tools."

"I owen one of these and use it everyday for maintance at the factory I am employed. the compactness along with the light make this a very useful tool to have in my box. the power is there,the battery life is there, and the convinence is there. I would replace it with the same product if it fails ,but so far over a year of use and still doing great."

Favorable with caveat,
November 5, 2009
By Hardy
from Seattle, WA.
"We purchased two of these units for use in our tooling shop. They receive intermitten, light to medium duty use. They work great. We really like the light weight. Two issues we experienced are the lack of top end rpm's. Our Dewalt drills would run 600 rpm's faster and we really noticed the slower speed when using small drills. The other issue is one of the batteries failed after a few months use.
Overall we like the drills. For future replacement purchases we would look for a lithium battery powered drill with more rpm's."

Not bad,
November 4, 2009
By cpoetting
from Iowa
"Bought this drill last year. It has survived several falls from the tops of ladders with no incident. The batteries will not last all day but recharge time is less than 30 minutes. The light is handy as well as the belt clip. Not a bad drill overall, they could come down on the price a bit however."

Milwaukee M18 Cordless- A Drill for All Seasons,
November 4, 2009
By EZMoney
from Glen Rose, AR
"If you need a drill with a lot of torque, at any rpm this is the one to get , outstanding for use with paddle bits. The key-less chuck is very secure and easy to use. The trigger on the unit itself is very easy to control for different rpm's, great for screws. The battery packs quickly charge and last a long time.
The Milwaukee M18 Cordless Compact Driver is several steps up from any other cordless drill I have ever used and that includes the so called other "top of the line" manufacturers, I would want the person beside me to have one so they could keep up with the work that this little baby can put out."

from Waupaca, WI
"I received this drill and a driver as a combination set for my birthday. I rate both a five. They are great tools. They are light, powerful and the battery seems to last forever. I am very satisfied with both of these tools. Also, the price was very good for the value. I am a Milwaukee fan. I am an old retired guy and use these tools for extensive remodeling projects.

Looks impressive,
November 2, 2009
By REM1875
from North Texas- Rural and Farm
"WOW a REAL wireless drill motor - looking at the stats I am impressed - steel gear box - multi speed - 18 volt and from Milwaukee no less. Only thing I have a problem with is coming up with that much cash but when mine wear out this is definitely on my list. Course winning one of these would be nothing to kick at either : )"

18 volt drill,
November 2, 2009
By snomodan
from wisconsin
"The drill is light enough to use all day which I do. I have other 1/2 Milwaukee drills which I use also. I am hoping these batterys hold up to the constant daily rechargeing we do. The led light is really great when your drilling in less than good light like under cabnets and poor light areas as I get older and they keep adding another bifocal on its nice to light up your marks to see. This is the reason I bought this drill instead of new replacement battierys."

By pungerkp
from maple grove, minnesota
"This item was purchased where I work and I prefer it over all the other ones that we currently have. I am 69 yrs of age and the size and weight of this drill fits me perfectly. I like the light because I work inside of cabinets and it sure comes in handy. The battery charges in just a short time and the battery indicator is really handy in letting you know where the charge currently is. I am trying to convince the boss to purchase at least one more of these because everybody wants to use this handy easy to use tool."

By Dutch1956

"This cordless driver is right there in the fine tradition of Milwaukee heavy duty power tools. It has enough power to handle any job I've done. The battery charger charges very fast keeping you going on the job without having to wait. I've had it for a year and I'm very pleased with it. Would recommend it to any one."
