very well balanced and stable. vibration is well regulated. even the noise level is lower compared to my corded ones. the guard can be rotated on the fly, very smart! only wish the big red could come up with a quick release mechanism like the oscillating tool. kinda expensive for what it is. but it is the big red. so suck it up and get used to it, I guess. no more cords to worry about, a major plus for a thing like this. nice!

I would just like to point out that this tool is not intended to replace a corded grinder. It has good power, and does drain batteries pretty quick depending on use. it’s great for times you need a quick cut, but dont want to pull out cords. also, LET THE BLADE DO THE WORK! DON’T FORCE IT, AND YOUR TOOL WILL LAST MANY YEARS!

Can bring this out to the field and maintain equipement. Great runtime on a 5.0 battery, very powerful. Awesome for cutting some metal in the scrap pile for farm projects as well.

i use grinders at least 2 hrs every day. this grinder has plenty of power. it just feels a little clunky. not ergonomic. and i hate the paddle switch. i wish they would have a regular trigger. Also the guard for some reason only has a couple positions it goes in and the position i like the most wasn’t even an option so i had to cut the little stopper off the guard or just take it off completely. i just wish we lived in a world where engineers actually used tools.

You can’t go wrong with Milwaukee tools. Powerful, long lasting battery and the build quality is unmatched.

Cordless and powerful. You find all new reasons and places you use it over a corded or air powered grinder. The battery on the end isn’t as annoying as you’d think. I was reluctant to purchase one but I have multiple other Milwaukee tools which haven’t disappointed. Only weird part was the paddle switch it has to be all the way pressed in to start it which can be a little confusing at first. Over all good quality, powerful and useful same with all other Milwaukee products

In all fairness, I feel obliged to update my initial review and give credit where credit is due. Initially, I rated this one star, not because because of the tool itself (*****/excellent) but because of difficulty involved in finding a 4.5 inch safety guard for it. Forget about parts retailers…They boast about their “huge inventories” yet none of them had the part I needed online. Keep in mind that this is a common part for the latest version of the tool. Well, I called one retailer and fortunately, was shifted directly to Milwaukee. They were able to locate the part and send it to me, free of charge, no less (OK, in a little less than two weeks but no rush, no big deal). I will reiterate, however, that dealing with the various retailers was a dead end and a total waste of time. Looks like their websites and inventories are not up-to-date. Dealing directly with Milwaukee, on the other hand, was a breeze.

love the no key quick change thing. wondering why nobody else think of this. long overdue. all the oscillating tools got quick releases. love the flexible guard as well. it doesn’t guard all that much to be honest. but just being there gives me peace of mind. not very heavy with the battery attached and well balanced. not much vibration , day and night from my cheap corded ones: ryobi and harbour freight. but this baby costs four times plus some than the other two combined!

Great product. Good power and good runtime with the right batteries. Cordless is just real convenient when you need it.
