It took a few weeks until another job came up needing me to punch holes in hard stuff. It performed exactly what I expected. This is a beast.I think this is the largest offered in the M18 battery system. (Or close to it if not.) I like the compatibility with my smaller AH M18 batteries. This battery is large and heavy (look at pictures to compare with 5 AH and 1.5 AH). It is not great to use these batteries on mobile tools, but they run the LED flashlight a LONG time.I thought at first that the depth rod was stopped by plastic. It is pushed against plastic, but into the groves of the depth bar. As I find more an more with Milwaukee, the design is done well.See the images for the various hammer modes. There is a wiggle between the grip and motor unit, which isolates vibration a decent amount. This also has slots to hand on the vacuum accessory to collect droppings.LED light is really low on the body. That was weird looking at first, but in use it is great. You do not accidentally block it was various side grip positions.I’ve used the high end brand AC powered drills of this size. This is only slightly heavier, due to the battery, but drilling feels very similar. I’m going to be selling my AC hammer drill.

Drilling with no dust is the best and drilling is fast with this drill

We use it to drill holes and chisel out concrete in masonry walls to prep door frames for new hardware. Gets the job done well every time.

I love construction, design and inventing. I love helping other people. I live in a wonderful neighborhood but these folks aren’t rich. I have come up with a couple of guys with construction abilities who are retired like me who love to do things for others. We have added on to or constructed decks for folks who could not afford to get it done. Due to city codes the decks built on concrete slabs must be anchored. We had one man who had access to a hammer drill on the first one we did. It took a long time to get the anchor bolt holes drilled. I decided to order this one and OH MY. It put the one we had borrowed to shame. After ordering a really good set of drill bits we got started. We all stood there in amazement. It was as easy as pie. I could not believe that drilling holes into concrete could be as easy as drilling a hold in a 1 x 1 piece of wood. All the holes were drilled in the time it took the one we borrowed to drill a couple. I am not all up into tech talk but I can tell you this is a gem of a hammer drill. No great noise, vibration or strain. The power is there to drill with easy. The long lasting batteries are the best. Spring is here and I can’t wait to help our neighbors all have a great patio. Summer will be full of helping others without worrying about how to get all the anchor bolts in. Again, I am amazed. I own a number of Milwaukee tools but they have out done themselves on this one. Love the carrying case to hold the drill, charger and both batteries. Room for my bits and a easy carry handle. Great storage, well thought out. You will have to have SDS or SDS plus bits only. SDS Max does not work in this unit.There are no bits in this set. Bits are installed quickly and securely and easy release. I just can’s say enough about this. Well worth the price. Makes short work of any job. Heavy duty, professional grade, and a well thought out piece of construction heaven.

The industrial-strength Milwaukee Cordless Rotary Hammer Kit includes two powerful batteries, a charging station, depth stop, and it’s own heavy duty carrying case. This is a technologically advanced rotary hammer on steroids. Actually, it’s a very precise and rock solid tool. The M18 is very adept at breaking through anything that gets between you and your project. I love it. There are two speeds: 1. Powerful 2. Mega-Powerful. A secure grip makes it very comfortable to hold onto even in the heat of the summer when sweat is pouring off you. Very nice.
