   This is the 2nd Milwaukee 3/8 in. 2,800 RPM Tradesman Drill I have purchased. The first developed a tiny wobble after about 8 years of fairly heavy use. I probably could have used it a few more years but I decided to purchase a new one and give the old one to a friend who would only use it occasionally. I certainly received every penny’s worth of my purchase.The drill can deliver almost unbelievable torque! The variable speed switch gives you great control of the speed and torque. The cord is heavy duty yet very flexible. The keyless chuck opens and closes perfectly never gets stuck. The drill fits comfortably in ones hand. I doubt if there is a better drill in this price range.

   Drill is perfect for my needs , well made . The only thing I wish it came with a removable handle as it gets heavy to hold long time use . Great for the money . Had it a month and used it several times

   This is an excellent drill – looking forward to many years of use. Kind of heavy, but then it’s made for heavy duty service…..

   Wish chuck would grip well under pressure, lever made for direction of rotation is cheaply made. Will see if it withstands the test of time

   This drill came highly recommended by a contractor friend of mine. It is everything my ‘fix it’ husband needed and wanted for his projects around the house.

   After many years of using cordless drive I finally got tired of not having charged batteries when I needed them, so I went to the corded side.Drill is all I expected and delivery was on time at good price.Only knock is that the rpm on this model is higher than cordless and thus low speed use for securing items by screws is more touchy…need more practice!

   It’s a good drill. The trigger is sensible enough to squeeze just the right speed out of it per your needs. Changing drill bits is super easy, just twist off and twist on. Weight / size is perfect. Although this drill didn’t come with a case, it sure deserved to have one.

    Works great! So prefer a corded drill that is always ready to go for any home project.

    Just moved into my own place and had a Milwaukee palm sander so stuck with Milwaukee and it has been great! Plenty of power for everything around the house!

    Powerful drill does the job. Drilling through stucco was a cinch. My battery powered drill couldn’t make the cut.

    For those tasks where you need a corded drill with consistent power, such as drilling plugs for pocket hole screws this drill doesn’t disappoint.

    I went through two “yellow” cordless drills and really got fed up with the dying batteries and lack of consistent or available power. I have plenty of long extension cords so getting AC power 360-degrees around my house is really a snap. Thus upon careful consideration the corded drill became my favorite option.Milwaukee has an excellent reputation, but I did not want to blow an arm and a leg on a new drill. Suffice to say this drill runs circles around anything I have ever owned. It has a powerful sound that smacks of durability. The variable speed trigger allows you to easily gauge you drill’s RPM’s. Yes, this baby is a monster and runs powerfully throughout the task at hand. Now I’m looking at other Milwaukee models to increase my stable.

    Lots of power. We only tackle small projects and it will make them easier to build.
