I’ve been using Milwaukee’s corded grinder for years. It was top quality so I had doubts if they could deliver a cordless grinder that would match. They’ve done a great job here. This grinder is user friendly has tons of torque, runs for a long time with a 4mil amp battery and is comfortable tp use. Cuts stone, granite like a champ

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.

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

I have grown to love these grinders. This is the third one I’ve bought. (I have one for each type of grinding wheel I use). You still can’t lean into these things like a corded grinder, but for cut off wheels and grinding disc’s, they’re great. I get about 20 minutes of grinding out of a 5.0AH battery. I am a professional metal worker, so mine get used all the time.

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.

Has a lot of power when you put it to work! Well built and like the easy movable guard.

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!
