Our take on the Milwaukee 3453-21 M12 FUEL 12-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 1/4 in. Hex Impact Driver Compact Kit

The Milwaukee 3453-21 is a 12-volt subcompact impact driver built around Milwaukee's brushless POWERSTATE motor and 1/4 in. hex quick-change chuck. Milwaukee markets it as the fastest and most compact driver in the subcompact class, and the small body is aimed at cabinet installers, electricians and remodelers working overhead or in tight spots. Against 18-volt drivers it gives up torque and runtime; against other 12-volt subcompacts it trades on speed and size, and it shares the M12 battery platform with the rest of Milwaukee's 12-volt line.

What reviewers say

Owners of the M12 FUEL impact driver line praise its speed and small size for light and medium fastening, and many treat it as a go-to for cabinet and electrical work. The recurring complaint is that 12-volt power runs out on heavier jobs, where an 18-volt driver is the better tool.

What people mention
  • SizePraisedOwners say the short body gets into cabinets and tight framing where larger drivers won't fit.
  • SpeedPraisedReviewers describe fast driving speeds for a 12-volt tool on screws and small fasteners.
  • TorqueMixedIt handles light and medium fastening well, but owners say it stalls on larger lags and heavier work.
  • Battery lifeCriticisedContinuous use drains the compact M12 pack quickly, so owners keep spares on hand.
  • BuildPraisedThe brushless motor and Milwaukee's tool build are described as durable for daily trade use.

Questions and answers

Is the M12 FUEL impact driver powerful enough for deck screws?
It drives standard deck and wood screws, but it is a 12-volt subcompact tool. For long lags or repeated heavy fastening, an 18-volt driver is the better choice.
What comes in the kit?
The kit pairs the 3453-21 impact driver with an M12 battery and a charger. Check the buy box for the exact pack included.
Does it use the same batteries as other Milwaukee M12 tools?
Yes. It runs on the M12 12-volt battery platform, so packs are shared with other M12 drills, drivers and saws.
What bits fit the chuck?
The 1/4 in. hex chuck takes standard 1/4 in. hex-shank driver bits, including impact-rated bits.
How does it compare with an 18-volt impact driver?
It is smaller and lighter but gives up torque and runtime. Choose it for tight spaces and light fastening, and an 18-volt driver for heavy work.
