Would buy again, Great Power!
This drill provides the size and power to do all the drilling I need as an Electrician.I have had the drill for 4 years now and it still works as well today as when I got it. The pistol style handle allows for greater control of the drill.

    Tough as steel drill
    Can get you out of a jamb quite quickly with the power of the reverse on this drill saved me a couple of times when the bit got hung up in the rebar in the floor . Best hammer drill I ever owned.

    Great little hammer drill
    Excellent power and super efficient. Last job: 1/4"× 6" holes with dedicated vacuum and 12ah battery- we are getting over 120 holes per battery.

    Must have for concrete drilling!!
    I used a corded rotary hammer for many years before switching over to a cordless one. Aside from the fact that I no longer have to think about extension cords or having a power source, Milwaukee’s cordless rotary hammer performs overall better than the corded brand that I was using. I work in a lot of job sites that do not have power so having the ability to bring a tool in without concern for a power source is a huge time and energy saver which equals saving money. The hammer comes with a side handle for maximum control while using the tool and a depth rod to ensure proper depth when drilling. Connecting and removing bits are super quick and easy. This hammer comes in three different modes that allow you to drill into softer materials, a hammer drill mode for masonry drilling, and a hammer mode which I use for breaking up concrete or removing tiles. The tool itself weighs 7.8 lbs and I typically run the tool with an 8.0 High Output battery which puts the tools at a little over 10.0 lbs. Very well balanced and comfortable in the hands after extended use. I own a 14 acre property that I recently purchased and I have been doing work all over the property doing renovations and landscaping. I have had a need to drill 1”+ holes into concrete to run PVC for drip irrigation and also to run low voltage and CAT 5 lines for intercoms and lighting. The convenience of being able to run tools anywhere without having to lug around extension cords makes this cordless rotary hammer a no brained investment for me. One of the buildings on my property is 20000 sq ft and we are doing a complete remodel, and the entire building has no electricity. This hammer has come in handy to break walls and walls of tile in the bathrooms inside the very small stand up showers where swinging a hammer is not possible. I only use 8.0 high output or bigger batteries with this hammer and go through 2-3 batteries for all day use. Using a 1 1/8” masonry bit it takes about 30 seconds to drill down about 6” with this tool and the side handle allows for me to have good control and apply sufficient pressure when drilling into concrete. Cordless tools are a bigger investment and it’s always a concern whether or not cordless performs as well as corded, but for me Milwaukee has proven that cordless is better. This rotary hammer performs better and overall is a better tool than all the corded versions I have used over the years!!

      Stopped working!!
      I SENT IT IN FOR WARRANTY. MILWAUKEE WON'T LET ME KNOW THE STATUS, INSTEAD I GET AN EMAIL SAYING IT'S BEING EVALUATED. HERE'S THE LETTER I SENT TO THEM:....(I WILL UPDATE WHEN I GET AN ANSWER) Ok so I've sent in my M18 SDS hammer drill (2715-20) that stopped working to y'all, and you have received it, but I'm not getting any answers about what the status is. I've emailed, and all I get back is my repair status is being evaluated. .. What's to evaluate? I spent almost 400 on it a few months ago, and now I'm about to have to buy another one because I'm without it at work, and in the meantime I've been using my drill/hammer drill combo (2806-22), which I don't like to use the hammer drill function, id rather use it as a drill. I don't want to mess my drill up too, so I'm gonna end up buying another SDS, unless I know a timeline as to when I'll get it back. I'm really not getting to be rude, but I'm an electrician, and I rely on my tools to get my job done. Without the right tools I can't do that. PLEASE PLEASE can I get a timeline, loaner, or replacement?? Thank you, K.. P..... The order number is: SV2983502 My name is: K.. P..... Customer reference number is: .... ...

      Hello KP, this is Sarah with Milwaukee. I apologize for your experience with our products and appreciate that you took the time to bring this to our attention. We would like the opportunity to investigate your feedback further. Please could you contact us at socialmedia@milwaukeetool.com? We’ll work with you to resolve any issues as quickly as possible.
        Lots of power!
        Absolutely love this drill! It's compact and light but packs a ton of power. I use the 9/16 SDS Max at work to drive ground rods and it does a great job but is bulky and heavy. This version will sink an 8' ground rod in most applications too. It's not as fast but it also won't kill your arms lifting it over your head. One of the best perks to this drill for me is how easily it fits in the packout cases even with a bunch of bits and a charger!

          Goes through concrete like butter!
          This is perfect for all day use especially when supplemented with a High Output battery and the power is unreal, I used this rotary hammer for the purpose of anchoring conduit or strut mainly

            Great tool and the vac attachment is mint!
            So much power in this product. Love the carrying case too. The vacuum attachment comes in handy too, no more having to have a HEPA vac nearby to keep the dust down.

              This drill is unbelievable
              I switched from a large corded Hilti drill to the Milwaukee 1-1/8 SDS and it’s been a huge change. It delivers way more power than my corded drill and I don’t have the hassle of running cords anymore which is awesome.

                Hits hard! Especially for a light tool.
                This thing hits unbelievably hard for a cordless tool. Several coworkers are used to the blue corded competition we’ve all used. We ran them head on and the cordless Milwaukee won by far. Definitely get 5.0ah batteries or bigger. I can’t wait to try the 1-3/4 sds max Milwaukee that will be available soon. The M18 platform continues to impress me.

                  I've only used it to drill 1/2" holes about 2" inches deep in some old, very hard, concrete. Just put the bit where you want to drill, pull the trigger, and let it do the work for you, no need to push hard. I love the fact that it's cordless. Not sure yet about longevity but it seems to be built well. So far, it's money well spent after sweating bullets drilling 3/16 holes for TapCon screws in the same concrete with a regular drill with a hammer setting. No comparison. Drill bits also seem to last much longer then with the regular drill on hammer setting because of how this drill hammers while drilling.

                  Great For Medium-Duty Work!
                  Amazing tool for small holes (up to about 3/4") in solid concrete. We use it all day, everyday, for sign installations.

                  Great tool. Has a lot of power. I have rented many SDS- Max corded hammer drills before and this SDS-Plus hammer drill seems to have the same power or even more. Definitely beter to get the 1 1/8in version vs 1in

                  Good Tool
                  This is a solid tool. Drilling or chipping, it has guts, and doesn’t cut out during chipping like the 1” does. My last one stood up to several years of fairly frequent duress. My only complaint to Milwaukee would be that the serial number is located on the tool in such a way that if you use it like you mean it, the number gets chewed off. Which is to say, my last was three and a half years old when it quit, and Milwaukee wouldn’t warranty it due the this reason. Maybe it’s time to incorporate an internal serial number?

                  Tool is a BEAST
                  This tool is a BEAST! If you're in the trades you know these tools have their limitations, keeping that in mind , it's the best tool for a lot of jobs and hasn't let me down yet. Well worth the price.

                  Heavy and cumbersome
                  This tool is very heavy and cumbersome. Many features that appear to be designed for looks make it difficult to use. Streamlining would improve it. More thought for ergonimics in general would greatly improve milwaukee tooks. Look to Makita and Hilti for examples.

                  Well built, coming from the Milwaukee non fuel/brushless sds hammer drill to the fuel it doesn't chew through the batteries like my older non brushless drill. Like all my other Milwaukee tools it's been awesome just wish I could finally win a t-shirt from the little insert after you buy a new tool lol
