However, I do like the lower price. I've seen multiple smaller tool resellers list this combo for $175 to $179 recently... so HD certainly needs to do a better job on their BF pricing as they are paying significantly less than the regional suppliers given their volume / purchasing power.
Edit - Seller now listed as GenuineTools.com. Also, I've never had to deal with Milwaukee warrantee repairs but per the comments in this thread - I doesn't sound like the seller or receipt will be an issue unless you receive really old stock and were nearing the end of the warrantee period.
Community Reviews
This Milwaukee M12 FUEL hammer drill and impact driver kit stands out for compact size and surprising power, especially for a 12V platform. The impact driver gets praised as a workhorse for lug nuts, lag bolts, and tight spaces, and the newer FUEL tools are described as nearly matching higher-voltage performance, including strong hammering into cement. The main caution is warranty uncertainty with the reseller, since authorization is unclear and coverage may depend on the serial number and proof of purchase. Pricing has also swung lower before, with recent reports around $108 to $146 and earlier deals near $139, so the current price is not the low end.
Shoppers who can wait for a deeper discount, because the same kit has been seen much lower during earlier sales.
DIYers who want a compact drill-and-driver kit, because the 12V tools still deliver enough power for most applications while staying small enough to fit tight spaces.
Buyers comparing value against larger cordless systems, because this kit can replace an 18V drill or driver for many tasks and still feel worth the price.
Homeowners drilling into masonry or cement, because the hammer function can punch into cement with surprising strength for a 12V platform.
Drivers and mechanics who need a small impact for vehicle work, because it can remove lug nuts, drive lag bolts, and handle plastic screws without much bulk.
Buyers who need warranty certainty from an authorized seller, because the seller may not be listed as an authorized dealer and warranty coverage can be unclear.
Shoppers expecting the current price to be the floor, because the same kit has sold for much less in earlier promotions.
Tradespeople who rely on a consistent electronic clutch, because the clutch can feel inconsistent and the drill can shut off when the chuck is moved.
Users who want a premium-feeling drill for heavy hole-saw work, because the electronic clutch can stop the tool on a 2-inch hole saw even in lower gear.

They aren't listed as a local dealer by either zip code or city/state. The results list all manner of local small retailers. I doubt they are authorized which means no warranty.
