The keyless chuck is two-piece with decent knurling, so I've had no problems with bits working their way loose (so far). Very torquey, fine speed control via the trigger, reversible (though I don't think they point that out). Bought this to replace a somewhat battered DeWalt, and the difference is noticeable -- on every level. The side handle is removeable and adjusts to almost any angle, helping right or left handers steady their grip when working vertically or horizontally. Nice-looking drill, as drills go, admirably high top speed. Double-insulated so it has a two-prong plug, fine cord length and heaviness. Worst thing I can say about it (besides costing more than the inferior competitors): do not try to use this as a power screwdriver, or you will likely twist off either your screw heads or your favorite arm: no clutch, you see. I am very happy with this unit, and I would bet money you will be as well.
Bought by accident - returned for drill with chuck. Being Milwalkee they will last forever. Drill does seem to be a little longer then the one it replaced( stolen in breaak-in)
Nails aren't good enough - we must have screws. We ordered the Milwaukee 3/8 inch drill to build a garden shed. I can only imagine how difficult it must have been before the electric drill was invented. I have been waiting for this for 3 years and finally it is taking shape. When my husband finally gets to work, he builds to last til the millennium. This tool makes the job fast and easy. We have had no problems even though it is a rebuilt drill.
Milaukee tools are in a class of their own. These are lifetime tools and powerful.
I can feel the difference in the power and quality. Once again it's proven to me that Milwaukee makes the finest drill available. It costs a little more but after going through a Dewalt and a Minnkota similar quality drill. It's nice to have a drill that has power at low rpms, and high rpms to get the job done. Battery operated drills have there place, but in my opinion they will never replace the all around preformance of a corded drill.
