0622-24 Cordless Drill Review

Smooth-running and comfortable, this 18v cordless drill from Milwaukee has a battery position that can be reversed to optimize the balance of the tool

By Rex Alexander

Smooth-running and comfortable, this drill has a battery position that can be reversed to optimize the balance of the tool, which may reduce fatigue. The metal keyless chuck works well but is not as comfortable as the molded plastic chucks. It performed well in both of our large hole-boring tests. Its battery combines with 11 other tools.
