I am glad I made this purchase. I found it on clearance at home depot. I and glad it has enough power for what i need it for as a hobby farmer. I love the portability of this grinder and the milwaukee 18v system.
Well balanced, powerful, and comfortable for extended usage as well as being a solid, well built tool that keeps with the consistent high quality Milwaukee is known for.
Like the paddle switch - plenty of power - comfort in your hand
Does a great job and more powerful than the corded grinder from another brand.
Easy to adjust guard allowing you to use the grinder at any angle you wish. The handle can screw into both sides for right/left hand use. Paddle switch is an easy to use safety feature that came in handy when accidentally bumping into something and losing grip on grinder, shuts off fast.
