Broke after 2nd use, September 22, 2009

steve m. (mass.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Milwaukee 2610-24 18-Volt Drill/Driver Kit (Tools & Home Improvement)

Watch out for this drill... I purchased most of the new M18 tools with extra batteries etc etc. and this particular drill broke the 2nd time I used it. I had the side handle on it and while using a hole saw it snapped a piece off the drill itself(the piece that holds the side handle on) the cheap pot metal drill casing/body broke right off . Now it cannot be used with a side handle and there is sharp metal on the body of the drill exposed..Not so "Nothing but Heavy duty"! In all my years of using cordless tools on jobs I have never seen anything like this, why they did not use the standard ring type side handle clamp is beyond me. Also the drill cuts out under load like the other reviewer mentioned and the battery life is no more than my Dewalt 18volt Ni-Cads. Back to Makita and Dewalt for me.
