Milwaukee M18 FUEL 1/4" Hex Impact Driver 2953 Reviews

A deck project full of 6 inch lag screws went through without trouble after a weaker driver was swapped out.

Serves as the everyday driver, with torque that covers nearly all of their work and a bigger wrench for anything more.

Good impact driver overall, but the sharp rotor-bearing back cap on this generation is not very comfortable to hold.

First use on old stuck automotive bolts left a breaker bar necessary every time, though others point out this is the wrong tool class.

Almost two years of five-day-a-week use, including a 30 ft fall onto concrete, and it still runs great with a light 2.0 pack.

Homeowner use only, yet it failed after about six months with a grinding noise and no rotation.

Steel building work with self tapping screws makes it run uncomfortably hot, and the previous generation is felt to outperform it.

Daily hard use without trouble on their own unit, though they acknowledge known failure reports and somewhat regret the purchase.

Several drops onto concrete later, it still runs like new.

Handles everything needed around the house, though it is too bulky to reach screws set deep inside installer work.
