I strongly recommend this tool. Has very good power for the toughest job. The price is on the high side but it is worth it. This is the best battery powered impact I have used. I have used a Snap On which was stolen, as well and it did perform as well as the Milwaukee. But the cost of the Snap On was 3 times more expensive. So the value of this tool is a 10 on a scale of 1 to 10.

This impact wrench is excellent. Had doubts about battery life, however, the Milwaukee battery lasts quite a while and torque of wrench will work for most applications. changed 8 trailer tires (40) lugs and no discernible change in power. One thing I would say that is not a negative but may be difficult at times is that the tool incorporates a hog ring keeper for the socket. Easy to go on but difficult to remove so need to keep a screwdriver handy if changing sockets.

I purchased this impact wrench to carry in my truck to remove the lug nuts in the event of a flat tire. Trying to set up a pry bar and remove the lug nuts on the road is a PIA.
Rotating my tires requires removing 40 lug nuts that are supposed to be torqued to 140 ft lbs.
Wow, what a great surprise. The impact wrench got em all.
Now I carry the wrench in my truck always.

this impact wrench is great tool to add or remove any size nut added to a screw. the 450lbs of torque puts an impact on the item.

I wasn’t sure how this one would compare to my electric one but wow what a surprise. This took the lug nuts off so quick I couldn’t grab them quick enough. I bought 2 a/m batteries to go with it and no problem what so ever. I would take this impact over any other on the market.

It does the job, I was having trouble breaking bolts loose on my riding mower blades. The impact broke them loose with no trouble. The units weight is a little heavy, but for the performance it is great. And yes it is well worth the money.

This thing has the power to snap lug nuts! I was seriously impressed. The batteries last a lot longer than I expected too. I forgot it in the back seat of my pickup, and grabbed it out to use it to take wheels off the Tahoe when it was -27 F one day, I thought the battery would be junk. It spun those lugs right off and still works great ! that’s impressive.

got product and made sure batteries were solid a preforming correctly. used product and it cuts out when you start on a bolts. its starts to take off and then just shuts off. does the same thing when putting in or on a nut a bolt combo. shuts off with any back pressure or torq.my 3/8 inch out preforms this product and its 8 years old. handles more torque than this new 1/2inc. horrible itell ya. not good at all.

Nice product for the money. I am sure there are more powerful offerings but seems to be a great addition to an emergency tool kit for road side repairs. Item was new in box as described. Seems to have a good amount of torque.
