5.0 out of 5 stars Does what it needs to and then some, August 13, 2010

This review is from: Bare-Tool Milwaukee 2410-20 M12 12-Volt 3/8-Inch Drill/Driver (Tool Only, No Battery) (Tools & Home Improvement)

I can't believe sometimes what this drill is capable of.

Pros:
- Will drill through pressure-treated 2X4's with a 7/8" paddle bit no problem
- Has 2nd gear for high-speed jobs like buffing
- Will drive 3" deck screws into pressure-treated without a pilot hole
- Decent battery life, but better always keep one on the charger
- Batteries and charger (not incl.) are lightweight and fit in toolbox well
- Battery meter on side
- Feels solid
- Has clutch (not as accurate as the one on the sub-compact driver though)
- Price is right


Cons:
- A little top heavy, but still a pleasure to use
- 2nd gear doesn't have much torque (maybe it could be geared a little closer to 1)
- Chuck makes a slamming noise when you abruptly stop the drill
- Ratcheting mechanism isn't strong enough to keep the chuck closed when you repeatedly start & stop the drill
- Battery must be fully (and recently) charged to deliver full torque

I use this product for work, not every single day and usually not for huge jobs. It will do the big jobs, but for really big screws, pre-drill just for good measure. It's easier to pre-drill then drive a screw in too fast and crack the lumber or bind up the drill. This drill will get into tight spaces, has the power to do what you ask it and the batteries are light.

I have this, a sub-compact driver and three batteries. The sub-compact driver I use for assembling and disassembling machines as it has a wonderful clutch on it that is very fine and accurate. Between the two tools, if I always keep a battery on the charger, I never have to stop. DOES NOT REPLACE YOUR 18 VOLT DRILL.

Bottom line: Tough enough for everyday use, but it won't do an 18 volt's job.

FOLLOW UP: September 20, 2010:
Been using it for a while now, yesterday used it to replace broken electric fence insulators. Does the job just fine, I still love it, I'd still give it 5/5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME LITTLE DRILL!!!, July 12, 2010

For its size and weight, this drill is the bomb! Your not going to drive 3" deck screws with this drill all day, although it will sink one into pine with no pilot hole. For light to medium duty, this drill/driver is great. It fits in your tool box or your tool belt, is very light for overhead work. It's battery lasts a fairl long time. I'm not throwing out my 18volt drill, but this drill does most of the work in my shop.

An excellent addition to my Milwaukee M12 tools. Since I already have extra batteries from other purchases, I was able to purchgase this tool without the battery. I have used the tool for several projects and the battery charge indicator on the tool still shows a full charge. Like my other M12 tools, the unit is lightweight and powerfull. The adjustable torque and two speed settings, as well as forward and reverse, are very useful. In all, a great cordless tool.
