Community Reviews

Milwaukee's M12 FUEL stubby impact wrench stands out as a compact 3,8 inch tool that hits well above its size, especially with the included 5.0 Ah high output battery. The 3,8 inch drive is the preferred fit for Torx and triple square sockets, and the bundle is attractive because it includes the battery. The main drawback is that the deal is not the lowest seen, and the 3,8 setup may require buying more impact sockets. It is a strong compact option if that size matches your socket set.

The stubby form factor delivers strong impact performance when paired with the included 5.0Ah XC High Output battery.

A standard M12 charger can charge the included M12 XC High Output 5.0Ah battery.
BigTonyTones
The 3/8 size matches common sockets like Torx and triple square for users with existing 3/8 setups.
ortence91
The bundle can be worthwhile when you specifically want the 3/8 impact tool plus the included battery.

Customer service may refuse price matching for Deals of the Day or other special buy promotions.
BoomDeYada
Timed sales adjustments may require returning and reordering instead of a simple adjustment.
BoomDeYada
Buying the 3/8 impact wrench can require additional spending on 3/8 impact sockets.
wcs
Upgrading may feel unnecessary for users who already own a first-gen stubby or an M18 mid-torque impact.

Common Questions (5)

The 2nd-gen stubby is reported as much stronger than the first-gen and useful when an M18 mid-torque does not fit in tight spaces. If you already have a first-gen stubby or mid-torque that covers your needs, it may be hard to justify unless you want the smaller 3/8 form factor.
RelaxedPenguin2752 Audizzz MX400ex72 samGD3
The 3/8 in. version is the better fit if you use Torx, triple-square, or other 3/8 sockets and want a compact tool for tighter access. The 1/2 in. combo is also listed at the same price, so the choice mainly comes down to your socket set and preferred drive size.
ortence91 Spyro777 eeagle VINdecent
Deals of the Day and other special buy promotions reportedly cannot be price matched. Some reps will still do a price adjustment as a one-time courtesy, but others may require a return and reorder.
BoomDeYada rmtdeals BoomDeYada Taco_Doomsday
Yes. A standard M12 charger will charge the included M12 battery, though it is not the fastest or most efficient option. The slower charge can also be preferable for battery longevity.
garycoleman BigTonyTones RelaxedPenguin2752
Yes, if you choose the 3/8 in. wrench you may need to spend more on 3/8 impact sockets. The deal includes the tool and battery, but not a socket set.

This seems to be the lowest price iv seen on it . What are the thoughts?

Yeah. It is for this combination. I got it with 2 3ah batteries for $159. I have 2 1/2 inch but have been waiting on a worthy deal on a 3/8.

The 36 piece packout socket set sells for 175 normally. Add the Tool deal and socket kit and price is 358 so nothing special. Socket set is way overpriced but if you wanted it choose the tool deal then it gives you a choice to "buy with" for 5% off. You'll get both for $350.

If a Mil/Vet this is just too hard to pass up $164.70 @shopmyexchange.com HD link
also, the 1/2 in is also the same price, but a quick review of the use of forums convinced me the 3/8" is the choice for me.

Common Questions (5)

Is the Milwaukee M12 FUEL stubby 3/8 in. impact wrench worth upgrading from a first-gen stubby or M18 mid-torque?

Should I buy the 3/8 in. or 1/2 in. Milwaukee M12 stubby on this deal?

Can Home Depot price match or price adjust this deal?

Does the included M12 XC High Output 5.0Ah battery work with a standard M12 charger?
