5.0 out of 5 stars Great package, July 11, 2009

Tool Nut 102 (Silver Spring, MD USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Milwaukee 2490-22 12-Volt Compact Drill and Hackzall Saw Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)

I bought the hackzall many months ago, and was initially unimpressed with it, comparing it to my Sawzall and Sawzall Hatchet. BUT - after having it on hand for a number of months, I can now say that this is a GREAT tool, for those specific jobs where a real sawzall can't fit, or for any job where you would consider using a hand saw of any kind. The portability is a huge plus. The number of uses for this tool continue to expand, based on how handy it is to have around. The driver-drill is at least as good as the Bosch unit, and the locking collet design is a nice plus.

All in all, a tool package well worth the price. The only negative I can still find at this point is the cloth carrying bag. There are no hold-downs for the tools, so everything tends to get jumbled up and tools bang into each other in transit. At least some sort of pockets or velcro tie-downs would be an improvement.

This review is from: Milwaukee 2490-22 12-Volt Compact Drill and Hackzall Saw Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)

I just recently purchased this tool combo set from an outside retailer other than Amazon, but wanted to leave feedback for other users to review. I've used Milwaukee 18v tools in the past and never had anything bad to say about them. They seem to have the best quality tools and longest lasting batteries in their field. This Hackzall is amazing. It can still cut through most anything that a regular size sawzall can and holds its own with battery longevity. It can fit both the short and regular size blades for all types of cutting applications. I enjoy the led light that's equipped on both tools. I received mine with the handy and styling Milwaukee bag as opposed to the plastic hard case. This is better if you like to carry extra tools and parts along with you. The drill is awesome and just seems to keep on going. I used it on all types of projects around my home and office before I had to change the battery. You may want to also purchase a 3/8 adjustable chuck key so you can use other drill bits that aren't fitted especially for hex applications like this drill is. Overall, so far so good. The price was right and it has a 5 year manufactures warranty. I would recommend this tool set for anyone who works in and around their home, or for even light duty commercial work. This will certainly outlast my no name drill which died on me after 3 months of use. You can't go wrong with Milwaukee brand tools in my opinion.

This review is from: Milwaukee 2490-22 12-Volt Compact Drill and Hackzall Saw Combo Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)

This is a great product. Lots of power, long battery life, fast charging. Uses ANY sawzall blades (you don't need to buy special ones). The drill is a nice bonus, but it only can use drill bits with the rapid change indent thing on the end of the bit, it is not a true chuck. Just FYI. I missed that when I bought it, but luckily all of my drill bits have that indent thing. As you can tell, I am not a handywoman, but I redid my whole powder room (drywall and all), with this set. Turned out very nice. The two batteries the set comes with are great.
