Durable and impressive
Not a Milwaukee fan at all, but my beloved Makita ratchet seems to be the weakest link in my Makita line up. This was the highest rated ratchet I could find and Amazon had the best price for tool, battery, and charger. It even came with a tool bag. It hasn’t had an easy life its first month in the shop, but it’s holding up. Not a lot of leverage given the size, but it fits in some tight places. Battery lasts me a day and seems to charge fast. 3/8 to 1/4 inch adapter gets more use than I thought it would. It’s not super torquey which is ok since I often use inch pounds to torque fasteners after running them down with the Milwaukee. Don’t expect to break loose fasteners on its own power. You’ll need to break them free by hand then pull the trigger. Don’t use the battery to grip, the side LEDs apparently don’t like that. Hold it just above the battery. Larger bolts like on brakes may be too much for it. You can help it along though and still be faster than a regular ratchet by hand. It’s light compared to my Makita, but that’s a 18 volt tool compared to the Milwaukee’s 12. I worry about the warranty. Most of team reds tools aren’t exactly repairable like Makita. I’ve had warranty repairs back in a week for Makita. Given the price, if I get 6 months out of it I won’t cry. Happy with it thus far. For a 12 volt tool, it has been great. Highly recommend.

Great tool
Item came with a 1/4 inch adapter, battery charge time is very minimal. Another benefit is if the bolt is too tough for the wrench, the tool will allow you to turn the bolt just like a standard ratchet.

Gotta Get this Thing!!!
Always wanted a power racket. This device exceeds all my expectations with my only regret being not getting it years ago. A huge timesaver when removing screws/ bolts and replacing them up until the point of needing to torque them. Bought this to assist in the arduous task of replacing both head gaskets in my ZTR mower. I had a plethora of screws and bolts to remove. This tool was a game changer and I highly recommend it.

Makes those long days in the garage easier
This thing is a huge lifesaver.Pros:1. Fairly narrow head, so it fits pretty well in small spaces. Not amazing, but generally pretty good.2. Great battery life.3. For those places where you don't have a lot of space to rachet, it's about a million times faster4. Light is a nice perk.5. Generally makings working on my car a pleasureCons:1. Low torque. You'll absolutely have to loosen many fasteners by hand, but you can finish the job with this tool. Not a huge deal. In many instances, I'm happy this has low torque, since I need to finish things off with a torque wrench, or I'm working with some fastener that has a low torque spec.2. I feel like the head could be more narrow.3. Having the "reverse" be on the head is sort of inconvenient. It'd be a lot better if I could change the direction on the stalk with my thumb or something.All in all, absolutely a great tool. I love it and I'll never do without a cordless ratchet tool again.

Great tool, lousy bag.
Works well, seems robust. Early review. Bag in pic did not come with it, got very flimsy top open bag. Annoying as cases are important to me fir moving from job to job.
