I use it daily. I have absolutely no remarks about the product. Will definetly purchase another one.
Yvonne O’Hara (verified owner) –
I use my grinder to clean steel before I weld. It works great I really like how easy it is to change wheels. Only thing I would change it the guard is a little bulky and sometimes gets in the way. Overall very happy with my purchase.
Jalyn McLaughlin (verified owner) –
This has more power than my conventional grinders and the brake is fantastic. My new favorite grinder.
Elwin Monahan (verified owner) –
This grinder cuts through metal like butter! I use it to remove abandoned bicycles throughout our facilities amounting to around 300 per year. This tool makes quick work of bike chains and even the hardcore u-bolt locks out there (kryptonite is the beefiest I’ve encountered if you are looking for a strong lock). The tool is easy to handle, lightweight and unloads power like no other.

Performs as expected. Braking feature is amazing..
Harley Little (verified owner) –
I’m a steamfitter and don’t always have access to electricity. Used this tool to grind out a weld with a 5amp battery. Best purchase to date.
Raven Jacobson (verified owner) –
This Tool is exactly what we’re looking for in a cordless grinder. The power of a corded tool with out the cord limiting where you can go!
Jeffrey Halvorson (verified owner) –
works great for what i need it for no troubles cutting through older fence posts or cutting free old sidewalks
Wendell Bartoletti (verified owner) –
I use this product at work. I’am a millwright so cut a variety of things. I like the ease of having cordless tools with power. The only downfall of the grinder I think is it seems like the brake holds up while cutting/grinding and wears batteries down faster.
Ebba Thiel (verified owner) –
This is so convenient to use with plenty of power and no cord to worry about.
Boris Runolfsdottir (verified owner) –
Great quality, powerful, and gets the job done. So much better than a corded grinder!
Rose Jaskolski (verified owner) –
Everything you can imagine. Grinding, cutting smoothing out surfaces
Therese Beatty (verified owner) –
I have used this grinder for suface grinding and cutting rebar. Plus side are portability, and the overload protection. The negative: Because of the overload protection this grinder doesnt have the same torgue as an electric grinder.Still a great grinder, just takes a bit longer ta do the same job… and Without a cord!
Maria Rolfson (verified owner) –
I have a dumpster business so I’m constantly welding and grinding on containers it’s flawless!
Marty Kuhn (verified owner) –
i love it use it every day. I am in the maintenance field and these tools ate very important to me if i had more money i would have everything they offer
Kenyon Lehner (verified owner) –
I love everything about milwaukee tools especially their fule line. This grinder has lived up to every expectation I’ve had for it. I do both commercial and residential roofing so my uses for it are limited but when I need it it’s on hand and I know it will get through any job I throw at it without a doubt.
Rupert Hoeger (verified owner) –
I bought two of these grinders for our shop, one has continued to work great. The second stopped working after three days, wouldn’t work at all with several batteries tried. Was returned and exchanged, replacement has worked great. Overall these are great tools, would definitely recommend to anyone.
Gardner Franecki (verified owner) –
This grinder holds up to everything I throw at it. It feels great in my hands and runs very smooth. The braking feature is also very slick. My only issue with it is that the handle on the fixtec nut broke after only a few days. However Milwaukee was very quick to send me a replacement nut.
Diana Kuhn (verified owner) –
I’m in HVAC and use my grinder regularly for sheet metal and iron and threaded rod etc. This grinder is like no other and has a great safety feature that its breaking speed is ridiculously fast. It stops so quickly that it is almost impossible to take my hand off the grinder after I let go of the paddle to stop and touch the wheel while it still spins. Awesome feature. Milwaukee is comparable to no other once again!
Lucius Kuhn (verified owner) –
Cutting, sanding, grinding and carving. This thing powers through it all. Every project I do I have to find an excuse to use it because I love it that much. Pair this with a couple of high output batteries and its unstoppable. I strongly recommend this tool.
