Milwaukee Has A 9-Tool Combo Kit To Tackle A Variety Of Home Projects

Milwaukee consistently ranks among the very best power tool brands. Their products are renowned for their pro-grade performance, reliability, and durability. Currently, almost every Milwaukee power tool you could want for your next home project is available in one cordless combo tool kit that comes with not 1 but 3 batteries, plus a charger, and a tool bag.

The Milwaukee M18 9-Tool Cordless Combo is a well-thought-out collection. There are no filler items of little use that have just been added to bulk out the offer. The kit includes a ½-inch hammer drill, ½-inch impact wrench, ¼-inch impact driver, 6 ½-inch circular saw, Hackzall reciprocating saw, multi-tool, 4 ½-inch grinder, multi-position work light, and a compact blower. The batteries are high-capacity 4Ah models rather than the weaker 2Ah you may have seen in other combos.

The Milwaukee cordless tool set offers solutions to a host of DIY and professional challenges. Having all the tools from one manufacturer also means you don't have to keep looking for the right battery or charger. Build quality is backed by an industry-leading 5-year warranty (2 years on batteries).

Despite the apparently comprehensive nature of Milwaukee's 9-tool cordless combo, there is one glaring omission: there are no sanders. Keen DIYers will probably want to add the brand's random orbital sander or the lightweight and versatile detail sander. The challenge there is that although the included 18-volt batteries will fit the orbital model, the detail sander is a 12-volt unit and often sold as a "bare" tool, so a battery and charger will cost extra.

Which brings us to the second issue. People sometimes wonder if DeWalt tools are worth the heavy price tag, and Milwaukee's products fall into the same bracket. While this is without a doubt exceptional equipment, the 9-tool combo requires an investment that's just north of a thousand bucks. That's a fair outlay for anyone, although it's worth repeating that it should be considered an investment. Milwaukee's power tools are likely to far outlast cheaper competitors and provide better performance. So whether you're setting up home for the first time, upgrading a tired old corded tool collection, or starting out professionally, the Milwaukee M18 9-Tool Cordless Combo could be exactly what you're looking for.
