Community Reviews

Milwaukee's M12 Fuel stubby 3 8 inch impact wrench is drawing attention as a compact tool that punches above its size, especially with the included 5.0 amp hour high output battery. The 3 8 inch drive fits common Torx and triple square sockets, and the bundle is seen as strong value compared with buying the tool alone. The main drawback is that the deal can still lead to extra spending on 3 8 inch impact sockets, and price adjustments for timed promotions are inconsistent. A solid compact setup if the socket size matches your work.

Common Questions (5)

A regular price match may be denied for Deals of the Day and other special-buy promotions, but a price adjustment has been successful for some chats. The practical route is to ask for a price adjustment rather than a price match.

If you already have a first-gen stubby or an M18 mid-torque, you probably do not need this upgrade. The 2nd-gen stubby is still tempting, and the compact 3/8 in. size is especially useful for Torx and triple-square sockets.
RelaxedPenguin2752 RelaxedPenguin2752 ortence91 Spyro777
Yes, if you do not already own 3/8 impact sockets, you will likely need to spend more on them. The wrench bundle is the main deal, but the socket set is a separate purchase.
wcs Spyro777 45root
Yes, this bundle includes an M12 XC High Output 5.0 Ah battery pack. The included 5.0 HO battery is a big part of the value because it gives the compact stubby noticeably more punch.
Bartrand ortence91
Yes. A standard M12 charger will charge the included M12 battery, though it is not the fastest or most efficient option.

This will be frontpage material, for sure.

Anyone who's been holding out on picking themselves up one of these, you won't be disappointed.

What these can do in such a small form factor is game changing, especially when paired with the 5.0 HO batteries like that comes free with this. 👌

Damn, I just bit on the $206 Home Depot deal a few days ago. I'd have to take a ride share to return it so not worth it. Feel like a sucker.

Just use the customer service chat feature and they should price match you. I did that when I bought a M12 heated hoodie last year, and instead of dropping my price down by $20, he ended up dropping the price TO $20 in error. That was a killer score.

Just did customer service chat. Rep says, "Deals of the Day" & other special buy promotions can't be price matched. Really appreciate you trying to help, though. Thank you, Taco!

Try again with a different service rep. You aren't price matching you are price adjusting for HD's own lower price. I just did the price adjustment and got my $23 back by the end of the chat. Good luck.

Ahhh, screw it. I got one. I have a 12V 1/2 DeWalt that rips and love the darn thing, however more often than not I want something that's 3/8 for sockets such as torx or triple square.
Very good deal especially considering that it comes with a battery.

I just tried w/ another rep, & got the adjustment. Was told this was a 1 time courtesy, & they don't adjust for timed sales. The required process is to return & reorder. Doesn't make sense to me cuz that just wastes their time. Thank you for letting me know you were able to get an adjustment. Thank you both, Taco & rmt! Repped!

Of course it does! M12 charger will charge a m12 battery . It's not the fastest or most efficient way but there's nothing wrong with a standard m12 charger. Many people will say they prefer the slower charge for longer battery life.
