 Great tool, great price. December 15, 2009

I would put myself in the 'active homeowner' category in terms of my tool usage. I use my tools a lot, but I don't use them for a living. I also appreciate well-built tools and will spend a bit more to get a tool that feels solid and not likely to fail after a few hours.
After considering a number of different hammer drills I chose the Milwaukee 5380-81 9 for its keyed chuck, power and positive reviews. I decided to buy a reconditioned tool because of the substantial savings. I was a little worried about some of the comments reviewers made about the condition of reconditioned tools they received, but decided to take a chance.
The hammer drill arrived and I carefully inspected it and drilled some test holes to check out its functionality. Cosmetically, the tool is 'near new'. There are a few very small scuffs on the plastic that are not noticeable unless you look very closely, under a strong light. There is a very small bit of surface rust on the chuck. I drilled some test holes in wood without the hammer and in concrete block with the hammer. The tool feels very powerful and well built and everything functions perfectly. In addition to the hammer drill, the kit included a new carrying case, detachable side handle, depth stop and chuck key. All parts were in the box and are in new condition.
The first actual job I did with the tool was to drill a dozen holes through floor tile and into a concrete floor to anchor a 2 x 4 with Tapcons. The hammer drill functioned flawlessly.
I chose the free shipping and didn't expect to see the tool for 7 - 10 days. Much to my surprise, CPO Milwaukee shipped the tool by FEDEX and it arrived on Saturday, 2 days after I placed the order.
I'm very happy with this tool and the service from Amazon and CPO Milwaukee.

For a hundred bucks this drill is a thing of wonder. But one third of the teeth on the chuck key supplied are broken making it a huge pain to use, and now I have to get another. So it's a bargain, but not restored to new condition as advertised. I would give it 5 stars otherwise. Judging from other comments there's a real problem with the folks who re-package these for sale.

Recieved in good shape, looks like new. The unit I got is labled on drill body as "5380-21", The front case is black rather than aluminum color as pictured.
What a deal! June 28, 2009

This was supposed to be a refurbished item. The only thing that looked refurbished was the "Refurbished" sticker on the very sturdy case. I am partial to Milwaukee tools so I may be biased. As a hammer drill for drilling concrete this is all you will need. I did a number of 5/8" holes (the max capacity as a hammer drill) and it never slowed down. Be careful. I hit a really hard piece of aggregate and the drill never slowed down but it did get snatched from my hands by the torque! As a regular drill it's just the ticket for mixing mortar or grout. The average homeowner will never need another.
Reconditioned?? You can't tell! June 17, 2009

This is a monster drill-driver, and the one I received looked brand new. No scratches, scuffs, scrapes, paint, marks, or damage in any way. Case was like new too. A great buy, and makes me a real believer in buying reconditioned tools from Milwaukee.
