M18 FUEL 18V Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Combo Kit (4-Tool) with 1/2 in. High Torque Impact Wrench

This is an awesome impact. A bit expensive but a good investment in your tools.

5.0 allows for hours of work without needing to recharge. Drill works amazing and has never let me down. Impact driver is by far the most powerful I’ve ever used and makes working in the wood shop or around the house a breeze. Well thought out design.

As a Contractor, when it comes to battery powered,, I use milwaukee everything. for years I used the first generation ¼ impact and drill with the 1.5AH batteries and they never let me down. sure you swap batteries more frequently, but your second battery is already fully recharged by time your otger one dies..I recently upgraded to all FUEL brushless motor tools, and the difference is remarkable.The hard case is amust have for any real contractor. However my biggest problems with the case are 1: you basically want $120 just for the case. 2: the impact cannot be swapped for the ¼ SURGE impact. it will not fit in the case. which wastes more space in the tool trailer. and 3: milwaukee doesn't sell empty hard cases. (huge missed opportunity on their part)as for the impact and hammer drill, they're clear and obvious upgrades from the first generation. the grip is better formed than first gen. the brushless motors don't need to be "broken in" like first generation models needed to be. and the performance is fantastic.I'll carry milwaukee tools for life. Slightly because I'm so heavily invested into milwaukee batteries already, but also because the performance and reliability has never failed me.

I use both platforms, Dewalt and Milwaukee, but for reciprocating saws (sawzall) Milwaukee is king. I tried the Flexvolt before buying this sawzall and it wasn't what I though! This Milwaukee gen 2 fuel can be placed in between the hackzall and the super sawzall. It's strong, fast and the vibration is minimal for a recip saw. Highly recommended!

These are without a doubt, hands down, the best drill and drover I have ever used. I see in some reviews some folks got some faulty drills. Not the case for me. Ive had mine a couple of years and use them daily in a professional setting. The torque on the driver is unparalled. In some instances I even use it with a good bit to drill through stainless steel. And the hammer drill, an absolute monster, I drill into concrete and brick constantly and with ease. The 5 amp batteries provide plenty of life, I can get through a full work day, sometimes two on one charge.

I read the reviews before purchasing, just like you are right now. I weighed the pros and cons of various brands, just like you. Listen to this review. It holds weight. I had this review on Milwaukee's website and they contacted me to tell me they wanted to get me in touch with their product manager for drills/drivers. They then took my review down (after roughly 2 days) and I never heard from them again. I then tried to repost the SAME review and the moderators took it down before it could be posted for "not following their review guidelines." For that, I'm taking my review from 2 stars down to 1. Pathetic. My original review: I originally got this combo (M18 Fuel Drill/driver and impact combo with (2) 5 Ah batteries) to replace the Makita XPH07 drill driver that had previously given me trouble with its rear bearing/motor assembly). This was around Black Friday of 2019, so Milwaukee was running their special of giving you 2 free items when you bought this kit. I chose their job site radio (I love the radio so much) and another 5 AH battery. For the price, it seemed like a killer deal. When I initially used the impact, I was stoked. It had lots of torque and was a tool I had never used. I immediately knew I would never go without an impact driver again. Admittedly, I put it though some fairly heavy usage, but Milwaukee’s motto is “Nothing but heavy duty,” right? Fast forward to a couple months and I started having problems with both the drill and the impact. The drill’s chuck would ratchet down to hold a bit and then release the bit at the worst times possible, even when I would fully tighten it. Please note: this seems to be a fairly common problem with the Fuel drill. I then sent it to get repaired. After 2 weeks, I finally got it back. At roughly the same time, the impact started to act up. The bit holder/collet would occasionally drop the bit it was holding or simply would not lock a new bit into place unless I racked the collet a couple times. While this was annoying, the main problem was the light hammering noise that would occur when the impact was held upside down. I got this fixed under warranty...after 2 more weeks. Turns out it was the motor, which is ridiculous considering it only had a couple months of use. The bit holding problem was not addressed because the repair man could not replicate the problem. Fast forward to today. The impact has started to make the same sound, but only just starting to (intermittent) and it will not accept/hold a new bit almost every time I go to swap out to a new bit and sometimes it will just outright drop the bit while I’m using it. The drill is starting to have the SAME problem with the chuck, even though it only has a handful of hours on it. PLEASE NOTE: after research, I found the chuck is a common problem with the driver. Ditto with the collet ring on the impact. Come on. Why can’t ANYONE make a drill that lasts more than a few months? I’m NOT putting it to very hard use. I mainly drill 1/8”-1/2” holes and drive 1 1/2”-3” screws with it. Ditto with the impact, except instead of drilling holes, it will rarely drive a lag screw instead. I bought Milwaukee’s top-of-the-line set for LONGEVITY and also for the warranty, assuming a 5 year warranty meant Milwaukee had confidence enough in their product to risk putting 2 extra years on the warranty compared to most others. Sure, the 1200/2000 inch pounds of torque for the drill and impact respectively are impressive, but I could care less if I have to run to the repair man every couple months and wait 2 weeks for it to be fixed. I dread the day when the warranty finely expires and I have 2 pieces of plastic with some motors inside. I expected to be able to have these tools for 10+ years...now I doubt I’ll have them for another year. Might just have to cut my losses and sell them to someone for cheap and get a different brand. What brand? I have no fracking clue. I will say this: before I got the Makita (which was before this Milwaukee set), I had a Black and Decker NiCd battery drill that, although slow, has never failed me (expect for the low battery life and torque, lol). We’ve had that drill for 10 years and has been used fairly heavily and it is still running fine. It was a cheap drill and has had less problems over the course of 10 years than my Milwaukee set has over the past few months. Update: The drill's chuck is terrible. It is now wobbling fairly poorly and has made driving screws significantly more difficult. The impact has a similar problem and its collet moves at completely ridiculous amounts. Perhaps up to a 1/16th of an inch (and it's only about 3/4" wide). For their top-of-the-line drill/impact, they are atrocious.

Excellent tools for all types of work!!

For some reason the drill has the letters HT written on the bit holder... idk why

I use this impact wrench on plumbing flange fittings that need up to 90lbs of torque or more works like a champ and has not let me down yet and battery life was impressive for a 5.0 i was able to fasten over many hours with out loss of torque

Wow, I don't need to break out the air compressor anymore as this cordless M18 Fuel Impact not only handles lug nuts with ease, steering knuckles/wheel bearings using the OTC Hub Grappler or Astro Pneumatic Hub kit, lower ball joints, control arms bolts/nuts. So long air tools.
