Runs like a champ. Very impressed with performance. Note you will run through batteries fairly quickly if taking on considerable projects. Half hour of grinding with my m18 XC4.0 battery.

This is fantastic. I should have purchased it long ago. I have three corded angle grinders on my welding table at work (this one is for home use) and this one seems to be as powerful as all but the 15 amp Dewalt. It does use up batteries, it has to to have the power it has. Alternate battery is always charged before the one on the grinder is used up. I am not using the grinder continuously. Last week I poured cement in the back yard. Used grinder to cut rebar and trim the stakes for the forms. Very happy with the grinder.

The only down side is that it vibrates a little too much when on, besides that everything else is great. Very reliable product

Ive used this product to cut thick and thin steel ! Have put it against another brand and the other brand stopped while this one kept going !! Very handy little tool to have portable with no power cord or air ! I find myself using it all over the place for little things I would never have done without it ! Great value for the price !!

It works great and has excellent run time but i hate paddle triggers on grinders. Especially when wearing gloves it can be hard to depress the safety bar and pull down the paddle to operate. Die hard milwaukee fan but seriously need to have an option with a trigger instead of a paddle.

I work on a farm so I use this grinder for a lot of different jobs and it gets them done every time.

I’m a 4th generation plumber in my family and my grandpaw swore by Milwaukee. We started out using the old school hole hogs and reciprocator saw. He swore by them, my dad did and now I do. Milwaukee hasn’t failed me yet and I’m very impressed with the new tools they have today for my trade. My grandpaw would be amazed at the tools they have come up with!! Keep it up and send me some samples lol.

I goer started with the usual Drill and Driver kit, and have since added nearly a dozen other tools. I purchased this to clean wrought iron railing around my porch so I could re-paint it. Wow. I am so impressed with the continuous power! I have 2 5.0 and 1 4.0 battery so I have been able to go for about 100 min full steam. So glad to have this in my tool box!!

I had lots of modifications I needed to make to a house with a concrete foundation to get LVP flooring installed. Used the Milwaukee M18 angle grinder and it was easy. I was able to cut ½” corners where flooring could get closer to the Sheetrock with ease. Last use I had was making hold down slots for the kitchen sink in the concrete countertops. Overall would recommend to anyone and it is well worth the cost.
