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!

Needed for getting rid of that extra all-thread. Love the quick stopping of wheel but would like to see a little smaller circumference on paddle handle.

The grinder has plenty of power, the balance is nice and the switch is much improved over the older models. The braking feature is also nice so you can put the grinder down sooner after you get done grinding. As always,another home run for Milwaukee.

This grinder is my fifth product from the M18 Fuel lineup. I bought it to replace a cheap corded grinder to cut pavers for a patio project. So far, it’s living up to expectations. Always nice to have cordless, toolless lock but to change disks is great. The grinder is a little more bulky and heavy compared to corded grinder so a little more work if trying to use 1 handed. Overall great product. I’m very happy with every tool I use from the M18 ecosystem.
