Metabo HPT MultiVolt 18-Volt 2-Tool Brushless Power Tool Combo Kit with MultiVolt 18-Gauge 18-volt Cordless Brad Nailer

Compact, but still more than capable.

Bought these for a tight space cabinet install, and they did not disappoint. Full disclosure: the battery is the bulkiest part of this setup. They really are incredibly small. The impact doesn't have any settings, but the trigger control is great and doesn't feel like you could over torque a fastener easily. Battery on that thing lasts a while, I usually throw on an old 3ah Hitachi battery and I'm solid for a while. Plenty powerful, I assembled a pergola with it, too, and its solid. The drill is...

Best value for $$ of any tool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the fore father of this impact as part of a set 15 years ago and was immediately impressed by the power and versatility of it. In that time it's driven countless screws, tightened loosened and tightened again (you know how that goes) a zillion bolts, and still works flawlessly. It's survived a fall of the 8' ladder, and occasional dousings of oil from whatever transmission its servicing. And it still packs enough power to cut down job ...

Worthless warranty; failed tool and they won't fix

Warranty is trash, just like the drill. Tool failed about two years after purchase - often when you pull the trigger, nothing happens. Maybe 10-20% of the time; you pull the trigger and the drill just doesn't respond. Plus, the chuck can't grab 1/16" drill bits, only larger ones. I sent it to them to get it fixed under the three year warranty, and they claimed the 'defect isn't covered under warranty.' I'm a homeowner, not even a contractor. If the tool stopped working under normal use and that ...

Excellent power, battery, and weight

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was one of the first brushless cordless drills I used after my much loved Hitachi brushed drills, and I was very impressed with the power in this lightweight drill. Looking at the spec sheets, it has even more power than the heavier brushed drills, and the battery lasts as long as I can imagine needing in this light duty drill. Controls are all intuitive and easy to use. High quality, as are all Metabo tools I've owned.

Lightweight and powerful

I bought this combo set just over two years ago. I’ll tell you I’m very impressed. Small lightweight portable tool combo. Maybe small and light but it sure packs a punch. No more trailing extension cord, no more struggling with a heavy tool when you have to reach over or above your head. So impressed I decided to purchase other Metabo HTP tools. Circular saw and Nail gun. Def. RECOMMEND 👍

I Never Knew What I Was Missing!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been working on my front porch that involves a lot of overhead and ladder work using 2005 era cordless drill that weighed approximately 5 lbs. and an impact driver weighing in at over 3 lbs. The first time I used my new subcompacts, I knew I made to right purchasing decision. They are very lightweight compared to the old combination and using an aftermarket belt clip, I hardly notice it's there anymore. I've been able to drive every fast...

Metabo HPT - KC18DDX - drill and impact combo

This is the first brushless tool I ever bought. It's lightweight and fits perfectly in my hand. The especially lovely color that I see every time I look at it is particularly charming about this tool. The size isn't too big, and the power is just right – not too much, not too little. I was thinking about replacing the battery for my old Makita 12V, but I came to the conclusion that it would be better to just start fresh with a new one. Now that there are all sorts of things around the house tha...

Fun sized, full powered

This is one of the better subcompact kits I’ve tried. They’re pretty much full 18 volt powered drills in a fun tiny form, like your typical 12 volt or less... but full powered! I’m a cabinetmaker and remodel carpenter, so I absolutely prefer to use high grade tools. I was already on board when Hitachi brought out their excellent battery framer, trim nailer, and pinner. Now Hitachi is Metabo HPT, with a 36v lineup and more. Metabo HPT has been impressing me! Using the subcompact drills...

Former Metabo HPT customer

I regret purchasing this cordless drill/impact driver combo kit. I had been looking to replace an older cordless drill, and when I saw that this combo kit on sale, I made the purchase. I loved the compact size and battery size of both drivers, and was convinced that I had made a great purchase. Not long after the purchase, I had an issue with the drill not functioning on the drill or any of the torque settings so I contacted their customer service and mailed them the drill. Weeks later, I re...

Small, light, and powerful

I've been using this impact driver in my workshop for quite some time. It's very comfortable to use due to its sub-compact size, very powerful to handle even work on the metal building.
