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!

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.

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

Amazing, we used it to cut down an old fence line that was on our farm. I would defiantly recommend.
