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

Rating provided by a verified purchaser

As always with Milwaukee products, it is heavy duty and works great. Even though is states that it is an impact driver, I did not realize it until I used it. Making fastening in those hard to reach areas a breeze.

This tool is compact but still has a lot of torque. The impact makes light work of driving 3 inch wood screws. It fits nicely into narrow spaces. I like the paddle switch and the light. Another great feature is that you can loosen a screw and rotate the head if needed.

Great tool

This is a great tool for those tight apps, the only thing would change is the head position .... The battery sticks out as far as the head and makes it difficult when the entire tool is in the body of something being attached the head should be 180 Degrees of its position or adjustable in my professional opinion ... All and all it works well like most everything in the M18 line ...

Been using it for a few days. I have no complaints so far.

It’s extremely weak burly making a small hole on wood it’s ok for screw something

Very good build quality.

Product works great.

My carport project gave me very little room for attaching the plastic roofing panels to the ledger board under the eaves of my roof, so I bought this right-angle impact driver after reading all the rave reviews. They were not wrong! With a set of “stubby” drill bits and the Milwaukee magnetic 1/4” socket, I got the panels drilled and fastened in place. The 18V 5.0 Amp/Hr battery hasbeen going strong for several days without needing a recharge and drilled and driven hundreds of screws without pre-drilling into pressure treated lumber. I cannot recommend this product enough! It was truly a life-saver for this project

Great for getting into tight areas. Does not have the torque I expected.

Not as powerful as I had hoped but works great in a tight spot

I expected more torque when you are using it...not for heavy projects..

This is a great tool to have on the job. The M18 has more than enough power to drive 3" screws in tight spaces. I have also used it to drive 3" Tapcons in very cramped corners. I would highly recommend this to any carpenter, plumber or electrician.

This thing rocks

This is one awesome tool. It seems to be the best built Milwaukee tool that I have.

This thing is amazing. I pull parts off of cars in a junkyard. Absolutely a must have for taking dashes and bumpers off. This tool gave me the extra oomph to take me to the next level.

Great product! excellent Milwaukee quality, perfect for getting into those tight places.

My Husband has been using this just about everyday since we got it....He really enjoys this

While no where near the driving power of the M18 Fuel Impact Driver( which I love and use often) for the few occasions I just don't have space, the M18 right angle driver does its job. I was hoping it could also be used with a spade bit to drill through studs for wiring - a project in the next month or so - but not so sure it will work. Overall, as part of the M18 line, buying the driver alone has already been worth the money.

I love this driver. It's great for working on wall studs in tight spaces. My only complaint is that the speed selector won't stay locked in to place. It's too easy knock the selector into a different position by either bumping the tool or inadvertently hitting the switch. If it had a more positive locking switch for the speed selector this tool would be a 5 star all the way.

This little guy is the bomb!!!! It works great !!! Just the right amount of torque for all your needs. A must have in your tool box!!!

There are times when you need to get into areas that your regular impact can't fit. So what do you do, use an offset screw driver type of tool or a ratchet? Those are old methods that takes a lot of your time with little return on investment. Let's face it, time is money. That's why I added a new Milwaukee M1 18-Volt Lithium-ion Cordless 2-Speed 1/4in. Right Angle Impact Driver to my tool arsenal. This is a game changer for working in service cabinets and other tight fitting areas. I love this tool.

This is the first review I have provided on any of the more then 15 m18 tools I have so bear with me on this. This tool has quickly become a favorite for working around tight spaces, specifically cabinets, when a regular impact driver or drill is too cumbersome. The performance is excellent and does as it should (spec wise) under normal use. The only thing that bothers me about this tool is the rubber grommet piece that surrounds the ring near the chuck. This has fallen off under very normal use multiple times and is an annoyance when your focusing on finish work. I would recommend this tool but hope Milwaukee retools where the rubber piece is or provides a tighter fit to prevent it from coming off.

I have been using this tool in various automotive applications. The head can reach into areas my other impacts can not. I've used 1/4 & 3/8ths sockets often with the tool as well as driver bits.

I don''t use this tool very often, but it's a true blessing to have when nothing else will get in there to get the job done. Also use it occasionally for boring holes in framing in tight spaces, with a stubby self-feeding spade bit. It's not Fuel, but more than powerful enough when it's needed.

If you need to get into tight places to drive screws, or loosen bolts or nuts on a vehicle, this is my new go to tool. Well worth the money! Good enough power, good weight distribution, easy to use, and one of my favorite tools now.
