Easily beats dewalt.

I'm a millwright. My job requires strong well built tools. I was going through dewalt 20 volts drills. They would lock up and get smoked. This drill has way more power than the dewalt and takes more of a beating.

Strong drill

This drill is stronger than most electric drills I've ever owned. The electronic clutch doesn't give me the feeling of anxiety that I'm destroying my tool like the conventional clutches do. I am a contractor and use this every day. So glad I went with Milwaukee.

Honestly, a well made drill is an understatement

I do both residential and commercial almost 7 days a week, most weeks. I have switched over about a year ago to Milwaukee from a big orange colored tool line. Can't say I have regretted it once. I just feel like I don't really treat this thing well...tossed in the work van constantly. this drill is better to use daily and charges fast, battery of course last plenty long enough for what I do. Sometimes lasting over a couple weeks no problem. NO kidding I love this product. It's made to go to work, not just look at

Long time user.

Hi, I have been using Milwaukee drills for a long time. I was a lineman for 20 years, and I have to tell you guys that I had to pull an electric drill, cord, and bolts and tools up poles in an easement to frame up new builds. Any time I could lighten the load I would. My old Milwaukee drill was a badass and I would not have gave it up for anything. If I would have had this little power house I think it would have been a great substitute. The short amount of time that I've had my new drill it has kicked butt. Very powerful and built tough. The battery lasts, and charges quickly. Just feels good in the hand. Nice product, thanks Milwaukee.

First drill and love it.

I'm a women about the house, living in the back woods, love the cordless and how long the battery lasts. Easy to change bits and drills. Plenty of power for my projects and repairs. Was recommended to me because of quality construction and durability.

Great for DIY use.

Bought this in a set with a impact driver. Out performs the dewalt I had hands down. I have a couple of 5.0ah batteries and they last very well and the drill and driver keep power up until the battery is completely dead. One flaw I have noticed is the drill and driver both seem to have some glitch where it randomly doesn't work as if the battery is dead. If you unhook the battery and reconnect it then you are good to go. Other than that this drill is great.

It's not an upgrade from the 2703.

I blow up my 2703 drilling out bore holes with a 7/8 ager bit. Still trying to find a place to get it rebuilt. Got the 2803 from work and its good, but the torque is just not there it's a good all around drill, but the hammer mode is not the best my 2703 would drill out holes for z nails and plastic anchors in concert and want more. The 2803 gets hot after drilling out 4 aluminum studs 1"1/8th holes for wire. Over all it is a good drill for work. Just have to watch the temperature gauge...lol.

I would buy this again

Being an electrician can I drill lots of holes into metal wireways (cans troughs etc). This drill works well and I rarely have any issues. The 1st speed is just the right rpms to effectively drill holes with a 1 1/8” hole saw without burning them out.

Don't consider this an upgrade from the 2703 drill

We use a lot Milwaukee Fuel tools at our manufacturing facility. We bought several of these new drills to see how they perform against the one they are replacing (2703). We are disappointed, it seems Milwaukee backed down some on the Heavy Duty quality. When we are threading steel plates they run out of torques quicker. In a place where the 2703 would just dig in and keep on going, the 2803 just stops, it seems the electronic torque setting is too low.

Problems once again with the new drill driver
Rating: 1
I am going to be as honest as I can be, I am going on my 3rd replacement drill and this one so far has been the worst. The clutch(torque) setting on number 2 with the low speed set on #1 is snapping screws behind the hinges when I'm setting doors, clutch does not break free. When I press the trigger to start drilling intermittently the drill does nothing until I release and re- engage the trigger . This is a brand new tool
