The saw feels like a 18v and it cuts like butter with an appropriate blade for the task. Paid for itself after the first use. This thing is amazing for underground plumbing rough in’s.

Love the smoothness and the heavy duty motor. Have the regular m12 hacksaw but this one beats it hands down.

It is useful for getting into tight spaces between joists for example. It could be a bit more powerful, which is why I only gave it 4 stars.

I have used both the M-12 and M-18 variants of this tool. Mostly for undercutting toe kicks, and door jambs. Having a cordless version can be handy at times, but for the length of cutting I need to do. The Corded Dremel multi-tool is much faster, more powerful, and quieter. Also, I feel like the Dremel has better ergonomics. The 1.5 battery is an absolute waste of time with this tool. However, if you’re gonna get a cordless multi-tool, this would be the one to get. It’s better than most. It just doesn’t keep up with corded versions

My grandson loves the Hacksaw kit. I still have not received the wrench kit that was out of stock and being searched for. The employees at the Piqua store were of no help. The person at National was great and answered my questions.

Having gotten it when the “project season” was about over I have had only one opportunity to try it, and on that occasion I really liked it. Ask me again after next summer during which it will get a much greater workout.

I just purchased this item and have not used it yet, but initial impression is very good. Seems to be a high quality power tool. Home Depot should send these review requests out a couple months after purchase to give user time to test item out.

I want to leave this review for people like myself who read countless reviews trying to decide between the M18 Fuel and the M12 Fuel versions of this tool for cutting tree limbs instead of a chainsaw. My need was a smaller tree had come down in our yard and needed to be cut up for disposal. The largest diameter of the trunk was around 6-7 inches. This saw got it done with very little struggle, and I was very pleased to not have to deal with a return and having to spend more for the M18. The saw is hefty but small, and insanely powerful. Here it is pared with a Milwaukee 9″ 5tpi wood with nails rated blade that I had on hand. If what you’re trying to cut is any larger than this, then I would move up to the M18, but the value for the M12 fuel saw is insanely high, and I cannot recommend this one enough.

The size is perfect and this thing can cut straight. It is my go to saw. Anything 1” think or less is trucial yo cut. 2” is a little harder but ut still powers through. It is snall enough to fit almost anywhere. I love it. Its easy to control and use one handed

I bought the tool (2426-22) only because I have 3 other Milwaukee 12V with batteries. One of HD’s web pages showed the ” also purchased” items to include a gauge attachment. After ordering and receiving that piece I noticed the tool cannot accomodate the gauge because it doesn’t have the necessary lip such as the pricier model has. Another unnecessary trip to HD.
