Milwaukee 2494-22 M12 Cordless Combination 3/8" Drill / Driver and 1/4" Hex Impact Driver Dual Power Tool Kit (2 Lithium Ion Batteries, Charger, and Bag Included)

I bought these in August of 2016. It’s march 2019 and these drills are still going strong. As an HVAC/R tech, my tools get put through a lot of stress. From working in a freezer at -10 degrees and then immediately being brought up to roof tops in the hot and humid Florida summer (heavy condensation on drills) these things just wont stop. My primary is the impact driver. It has even fallen off my tool bag and fell two stories on concrete, more than once... and been just fine (aside from cracking the battery!). I’ve been caught in the rain many times and have had no choice but to use my drill- never any kind of short (I do avoid getting them wet on purpose!). I left one of my chargers and battery plugged in outside For almost two weeks, through several heavy rain storms.. when I finally retrieved it, battery was fully charged and and charger still works to this day! (Don’t try this at home!). I will say that 6 months after I bought the set, the regular drill wouldn’t turn on, but randomly started working a few weeks later. This hasn’t happened since, otherwise I would have filled warranty. After a year or two the screw heads holding the belt clips had broken off. I’ve noticed on cold mornings or working inside coolers or freezers that I’ll get flashing battery lights when I first pull the trigger but then they’ll run just fine. I’ve added to my M12 collection. Highly recommended for someone who needs their tools to work through regular abuse. If you do a lot of construction, a higher voltage set would probably be needed. These do most of what I need them for, and have more powerful drills if the job calls for it.

I ordered this cordless drill combo on January 1, 2021 and its been over a month and a half but it states it's running late. I bought it as a gift for my husband. Costed over $137 and they are saying that the UPS left it on the porch, which was a lie. We watched the UPS go by our house everyday for weeks and nothing. Other packages we ordered from Amazon came but still no cordless drill combo. I asked for a refund because that's way too much money to throw away and their excuse was that maybe a porch pirate got it. That's bull. Where we live, people don't do that and we were watching. Now, either the UPS guy kept it for himself or it was never sent. This company is awful to deal with and will rip.you off of over $137 which is outrageous. I'm furious because that was my hard earned money that they decided to kept. They won't sent the Cordless Drill Combo or refund my money. Beware of this company. I wished Amazon would do something about it because that's alot of money, my money, that they kept. Beware!

Bought this for my wife for Christmas. She went to use it for the first time and the two batteries are defective and won't take a charge.

Model of locking chuck scratched used I could not return because of the transport costs to get from products from Turkey. I think that the product we bought is repaired from the factory and is the product offered for sale again. Not new . Note this

I use these regularly at work as a service tech at a rental shop at a home improvement retailer. The battery life is great, for the size, and these pack plenty of punch. I liked them so much at work that I bought this set for myself at home. I already had a corded drill so this is intended to do 90 % of what a home-owner would expect a typical drill/driver unit to do. I would take these, hands down, over the makita of the same vintage. The driver unit had a fault with the mold of the handle which resulted in it cracking by the motor assy. And I like this chuck better. And the battery style. And the feel in the hand. It's a really well-engineered unit. If you're hemming and haw-ing betwen this and a unit from HF, than go use your super coupon and buy yourself a nice lunch. Buy this if you want a quality tool.

So I got these as a complementary set to the existing M18 I already have. I still do prefer the M18 for real world construction and building. This set is however convenient for around the home work, ie hanging frames, putting together furniture, etc. I do like the fact that this is very light weight and still packs the power punch the normal M18 do, but to a lesser degree. I thoroughly recommend all Milwaukee branded products and this one included. The nice case and price including the range of options for other tools makes this a winner. Other brand names I haven't come across a wide range of accessories. Superb product and real nice to have around the general purpose home usage.

so far, so good.. industrial quality tools that stand up to life in the shop. batteries last a long time in use, and charge very quickly. only complaint I have is with the Milwaukee tool website .. cannot seem to register ... even sent an E-mail to their "contact us" link, and got no response.

Life savers! Super light, always with me when I do projects. Battery life is only an hour or so, but these are so small and convenient for handy-man work. I always keep the charger with me and never had a problem.

Milwaukee is honestly hands down the best quality and tool, projectfarm has good videos about all sorts of stuff on YouTube and drew me to them. This sets sleak (I just upgraded from an old corded best I knew) they’re brush motors which is a downfall but the brand keeps me going they have sufficient torque multi adjustment converter or head or whatever. Any who very happy the batteries were pretty small but this is the m12 series which isn’t current anyways but I have a 4.0 battery and a 3.5 on the side for my grease gun. Very satisfied!

Très bon outils, mais très difficile d’enlever la batterie de l’outil. Il faut appuyer des 2 côtés de l’outil en même temps pour pouvoir la sortir. Mon beau-père fait de l’arthrite et il est incapable de l’enlever. Il faut qu’il se serve d’une serre en C pour pouvoir l’enlever! Dommage car ce sont de bons outils puissants pour leur grosseur.

Amazing! Good power, good battery life for small jobs, wouldn’t Work great for actual construction work all day as the battery would probably not quite make a shift but otherwise great for the shop or garage or house

light weight, easy to use , batteries last long time would highly recommend buying 2nd set and you can be like the energizer bunny and keep on going

Great purchase. I use them around the yard and for Ice Fishing to fasten the screws into the ice on my tent.
