Is this kit worth it over buying the drill alone?

Yes for most buyers: the kit adds the impact driver, a second battery, the charger and a bag for less than buying those separately. If you only ever drill, the bare drill is cheaper.

How does it compare with an 18V combo kit?

The M12 kit is smaller and lighter and costs less, but 275 in-lbs of drill torque and 12V power trail 18V kits. Choose M12 for tight spaces and light-to-medium work, 18V for heavy drilling.

What comes in the box?

The drill/driver, the 1/4 in. hex impact driver, two M12 lithium-ion batteries, a charger, two belt clips and a tool bag.

What size drill bits and accessories fit?

The drill has a 3/8 in. keyless chuck, so standard 3/8 in. shank bits fit. The impact driver takes 1/4 in. hex-shank bits and drivers.

What does the warranty cover?

Five years on the tools and two years on the batteries, through Milwaukee.

How does it compare with the M12 Fuel version?

The Fuel tools use brushless motors and deliver more torque and longer runtime per charge. This kit's brushed drill and impact driver are lighter on the wallet and fine for light duty, but the Fuel line is the better pick for daily trade use.
