Summary: great power, durability.
Comment: my drill I had before this was a 19.2 craftsman. not bad but I could stop with my hands at high torque. this milwaukee if I tryed the same with my hands again could hurt me. dropped the think so far a dozen times no problem at all. all the complaints about the batteries I have not experienced. milwaukee brand is my new power tool of choice by far!

Summary: An excellent drill, particularly while this older version lasts at this price
Comment: We bought my father-in-law one of these drills a few years ago and I've been borrowing it from him regularly. Based on quite a bit of use of that one, I liked it enough to come back and buy the exact same thing for myself--that should tell you how happy I've been with it! It has lots of power, the batteries charge quickly and last very well, and the hammer drill has worked just great for a number of projects I've done boring into brick and concrete. If you're not dying to spend an extra hundred bucks for the newest Lithium ion batteries then this model will probably be a good fit for you too.
The build quality is still excellent, although I notice now that the drill and the charger are built in China, so I'm a bit worried about that, I haven't had the best luck with the quality that seems to be coming from there so far, but they are getting better. It still comes with a 5 year warranty so I've got my fingers crossed that getting a unit that's not made in the USA won't come back to bite me.
The batteries are built in Japan, so I have good confidence in them. If you run into the problem of your battery not taking a charge, you should try the 9 volt battery trick, which worked great for me once before on my father-in-law's unit. If the battery gets discharged completely then apparently the charger doesn't sense any charge and won't begin to recharge it. By simply holding a 9 volt battery against the terminals of the drill battery (be careful to get the polarity right--the single lead is positive on the Milwaukee battery) for about 30 seconds you can impart just enough charge so that the charger will pick it up and recharge it fully again. Certainly try this before spending all the money to buy a replacement you might not need.
I've loved this drill even before I bought my own--5 stars!

Summary: Serious battery problems
Comment: Please be aware that the batteries that come with this product have a horrible reputation. They often fail within the first year of use. Replacing them is very expensive. I have called Old Milwaukee and they will not make good on this problem. The best course of action would be to avoid Old Milwaukee 18 volt products until they remedy the problem. I really don't want to write and be sour grapes, but this is not an isolated case. Do your research. Look at the comments from people buying their replacement batteries. It's not good new. On the up side, if you are willing to frequently buy replacement batteries, then what you've got here is an very well made drill.

Summary: Wow! What a drill!!!
Comment: Very nice hammer drill. Works great and has loads of power. A little heavy but that is to be expected for a cordless drill. Nice, well organized case as well.
Customer Rating:
Summary: This is my second one.
Comment: I had my first one for 3/4 years. (I bought it when milwaukee first did the 18 volt cordless) Its been a great drill for everything. I bought it for HVAC originally, but now I install cabinets. The hammer drill is great, along with that battery design. I am only getting a new one because the brushes are going out on mine. So its a good excuse to get a new tool.(while Im waiting for the brushes)
