Customer Reviews for Milwaukee 15 Amp 7/9 in. Large Angle Grinder with Trigger Lock-On Switch

Good reliable saw. Very good grinder.

Oh where to start..... this thing is a beast! I opened the box and the lights in my shop dimmed and started flickering as if I'd just opened the gates of Hades and released a demon! The metal frame pieces I needed to cut off my project simply fell off and ran screaming under my toolbox. Next I took the beast out of the plastic it comes wrapped in and installed the smaller 7" guard and a new Diablo cut off disc, (not included), this is when things get weird, my tools all jumped back into my tool box and its doors slammed shut and locked from the inside, I put on my gloves, (highly recommended), and plugged the beast in, I took a firm grip and squeezed the trigger, she roared to life with an evil growl, no scratch that, more like a Banshees wail! All the small children in our neighborhood ran crying and shaking into their mothers arms. I lowered my face shield, (also highly recommended), and proceeded to cut off a piece of frame rail i needed to shorten, the weight of the beast was enough to push it though 3/16" frame rail and still required me using both hands to hold it back from twisting or cutting to fast. (Note to self, always use the bolt on extra handle and shield, those cut off discs break and fly everywhere!) The power this thing has will twist your arm and you do not want this beast getting loose! I would have given 5 stars except for the fact it kinda scares me to use! The body is very wide and hard to get a grip on so always use the extra handle!

IT was locked to the shelf. Had a nice lady walk by but she didnt have a key. Waited 10 minutes for someone to come unlock it. And then found out they no longer offer veteran discounts. I asked the guy and he was no help at why.

The grinder is very heavy

Grinder and blade saved me $3000 over what an HD contractor would have charge me

Excellent quality, ergonomics, power, and durability. Whether grinding, polishing, or cutting, this grinder performs well.

Did not have speed control on the tool. One speed is not ideal for a heavy grinder working in different positions and wears out the discs fast.

This Large Angle Grinder tool is powerful enough to help make the job better and quicker.

Used it to plane top of deck joists for trex hidden fastener installation. Had several ok’d and new joists sistered together with flat blocking for center border (10” wide and all different heights). Leveled a 27’ long run in 15 minutes with 40 grit sanding disc. Worked perfectly and better than my planet

This thing quit the second time I used it. Returned it

Grinder came quickly. Very happy!!!

I got this grinder felt great in my hands compared to the makita grinders i normaly get but it only lasted about 30 minutes

I have purchased six of these beauties for our shop now and that's only because steel plates or beams accidently 'smack' into them. I have one now in use 5 days a week for the past 5+ years. Put a new 9" wheel on it and will still eat away at anything in front of it.

Works like I expect Milwaukee should.

Monster of a tool!!!

Excellent tool! The real problem is it doesn’t come with a stout man to use grinder. Other wise, grinder works perfect in hands of a big stout man.

I used this to sand a large amount of fiberglass and epoxy several times over during a major repair. The grinder performed flawlessly, covers a nice large area and never bogged down once. I have no doubt I'll get a lot of use out of it in future project

Very good grinder I use it for work light weight and real easy to use the only I don't like is there's no safety on the trigger
