Everything its promised to be
Background - I own a sewer and water excavating company that gets into some building and concrete work as well so we have a lot of experience with corded/cordless tools of many brands. Hilti, Bosch, Dewalt, Makita. After owning several Milwaukee drills including the previous V18 hammerdrill, 14.4v drill, and M12 compact driver this drill takes it all. This is just a initial review of my thoughts, its only been in the shop now for a week. It seems more akin to a corded drill than a...

Small issues tarnish a great drill
First, I'll state that the drill itself, along with the M18 batteries, are great. If it wasn't for Milwaukee's poor service, this would be a 5 star rating.I am a partner in a small home building company. We had previously purchased the compact M18 drill/driver (2601-22) and liked it, so decided to invest in their more powerful "flagship" hammer drill/driver as well.The compact drill/driver came with extremely useful belt hook and bit holder accessories, so I expected them...

BE VERY CAREFUL................
While Milwaukee's V18 3.0 Lith Ion battery is GREAT and works with all the 18 v NiCad tools we all have, theses XC and compact 18v lith ion batteries ONLY FIT NEWER TOOLS and are not compatible with the standard slide mounts most of us have.........

too many problems
I have a wood working operation. We use the 3 18 volt 2611's every day, all day.They are very powerful and can run a 1 3/4 forstner bit deep into multi layer birch plywood. BUT, here is the first of two serious problems. 1. The drills fall out of the chuck all the time. Whether it is a 3/4 inch wood bit with a 1/2 shank or a forstner bit with a 3/8 shank, when I am done drilling, 2 times out of 5, the drill bit is loose and has too often fallen out of the drill onto the floor. Believ...

Best in Class
This is, by far, the best drill that I have worked with. I am a contracted handy man and I have used this drill for numerous jobs. The power is unmatched by any drill I have seen or heard of and the versatility and weight is absolutely top-notch. I have convinced several other users of "other" brands to switch to this one just by lending them my drill for a job.

Great Cordless Hammer Drill
I bought this drill from Amazon in Nov. of 2008. It's been very good to me and has accomplished everything that I threw its way. I'm talking about concrete and metal work. Only for the most heavy duty jobs did I break out the corded Hilti.A few months ago, one battery wouldn't hold a proper charge and after sending it to a Milwaukee repair center I received a new one within a week.I was sad that Milwaukee Tools are now made in China (so is Makita, Ridgid, and even Hilti) ...

Incredible!
I've been using cordless drills professionally for over ten years. This is the first time I opted for a Milwaukee. I've used pretty much every other brand on a job site at one point, but this thing blows them all away. I drove an 8" x 1/2" lag straight into a 6x6 PT post without pre-drilling with a nearly dead battery. Incredible torque, very responsive trigger, not an over-sized body and it has very simple clutch and drill controls. Perfect. Couldn't imagine being happier with it.
