Customer Reviews for Milwaukee M18 18V Lithium-Ion Cordless 1/4 in. Hex 2-Speed Right Angle Impact Driver (Tool-Only)

Great tool. Plenty of power to drill through just about anything you want

Awesome impact driver for tight spaces. Would definitely recommend !!

Works like it should , very strong and compact happy customer

Works great for tight spots and has plenty of power for what i need.

Has good power but it’s awkward with the 3ah and 5ah batteries. I did not like how the switch for forward, safety, and reverse is sort of recessed and hard to flip with your finger while holding the impact. The rubber dust cover around the chuck also doesn’t work. It came off the first 20 mins and isn’t really functional.

It fits in places that other tools won’t fit and has plenty of power to get the job done.

Exactly what I wanted , received it very quickly, packaged good. No issues very satisfied!

I bought this drill on the advice of a Milwaukee rep because my right angle drill just didn't have the power that I needed to drill through framing members. I was very disappointed when I found it couldn't push a 1" spade bit through even one 2 x 8. I wish Milwaukee would have a low profile right angle drill with enough torque to do the job. Sometimes my hole hawg is just too big. I ended up going and buying a Bauer which worked like a champ and was much cheaper too

Awesome angle tool. Because it’s an impact driver it makes driving screws a lot easier especially in tight spaces

Sturdy, works very well in tight corners

Excellent tool for tight spots that you can’t normally get to.

The right angle impact works great and is of good quality. The only thing that needs changed is it should have the same self tapper setting as the normal 1/4” impact.

This impact is perfect for those hard to reach areas especially around the motor of my vehicle. It has lots of torque and is very easy to handle.

I added this driver as an after-thought as I migrated to the M18 platform from another brand. I feel this driver is overlooked by many, as there are very few review or videos available. Its peak torque rating is adequate, but not stellar. However, it merits can easily been overlooked in the data sheet unless one starts using it. With a right angle driver, you are not pressing straight on the fastener like a normal driver. Often you are handling this tool in an awkward position, often reaching just to make contact with the fastener. In these situations, raw power is not top priority, the goal is to maintain control, be able to apply steady pressure, and have 100% control of the driver speed. For most fasteners, I found the low torque position 1 extremely valuable in delivering the precision I need to get the job done. At this speed, you have complete, and linear control of the drive rotation speed, and the ability to reach the trigger switch regardless of whether you are holding high or low. You can drive delicate screws just by letting the hammer hit once or twice, or switch to position 2 for larger fasteners. I would recommend this driver to others.

Is a great tool perfect for small areas.. just wish it had a little more torque behind it

It hep to screw on small areas, switch can be improved to make it easier to use it

Thought it would have more power but it got the job done

The quarter inch right angle impact driver is an awesome tool to have in your Arsenal in my type of work. It is lightweight and it works fantastic. I love my Milwaukee Tools

I purchased theM18 kit to replace a older Sears nextec 12 v 1/4 right angle driver. Even with a 5.0 battery, I think the nextec has more torque. It is quite heavy and awkward at times, and the rubber seal around the top falls off about every time. I do love my other M18 3/8 impact and drill. My m12 stuff is also good, just the right angle impact frustrates me.
