This impact wrench is amazing. It's powerful, has a great grip, and durable. It's heavy, but it has a lot of power. It's super smooth when it starts and easy to manage the speed. It's not cheap, but it's well worth the money. Battery life depends on the size battery you use. But my 3 amp batteries last plenty long. It won't fit in a tight place, but for most job where you need a lot of torque this is the bomb. I wish I bought this a long time ago. You won't regret it.

I bought this as used like new. There was quite a discount from the new price. It didn’t come in the original box but all parts were there. There were also a couple small scratches that are barely noticeable. As for the tool, it worked like new. Right after opening, I grabbed a socket and checked to see it it would free the lugs on my truck. The lugs were tightened to 150# torque and came off easily. Removing lugs was one of the main reasons I bought it. That alone makes this tool worth having. I was fortunate to find it used, but It’s still a nice tool to have if you DIY any type of vehicle work. The portability is a big plus over air, I’ll be keeping it in my trucks tool bin just in case.

My compressor is just taking up space & is ready for the scrap yard. Its been the 2nd one I work until it becomes scrap metal. I have seen these Cordless Impacts for years. I can't do many lil side hustles without a compressor. so I took a big chance on this Makita Impact. My nephew said get one you have lots of Makita tools that haven't let you down. Years go by Makita can only get better. When I finally got it man I was so surprised. i mean just solid & nothing but brute strength. I broke it in on a 99 Chevy Tahoe removed all the wheels & reinstalled them on one Battery. Just to be safe I took my Torque Wrench making sure they were tight enough. I set my Torque Wrench to 150# out 24 lug nuts i only had to retighten one or two & to this moment think it was my fault. I have only used it twice so far but it has paid it's self off twice over. Can't say its as good as an air Wrench but close enough from my point of view. Its under priced as good as it works. worth every dollar invested in it. I highly recommend it. I am sure with new batteries the torque will be amazing. It beats doing a brake bleeding job by hand. Saves you time & effort

Bought Makita XWT08Z impact wrench to do one thing...remove a honda harmonic balancer crankshaft bolt at 181 ft-lbs known to be extremely difficult to break lose. I'm a weekend DYI hobbyist but I could not believe it took only 2 short bursts to loosen this bolt after all I read online about how difficult it was to remove. It was so easy with this tool and highly recommend it for this type of work for those looking at a tool for that purpose. I only used the Lisle 19mm socket made for crank bolt removal with this impact wrench and prepped crank bolt with PB blaster couple days beforehand..did not use any crank immobilizer tool for removal..amazing power! Tried on lug nuts at the highest setting to loosen and tighten but be careful when tightening because I did tighten a lug to 85 ft-lbs with 1-sec short burst that I discovered after using a torque wrench to do the final tightening and suggest a lower setting. Tool is on the heavier side but evidences the metal build quality with strategically placed rubber the around the head for good grip and high impact plastic handle, like all Makita impact tools. Also has a brake to stop rotation when you release the trigger, which is something I wish corded impact wrenches would provide. I also own a 18V Makita impact driver set and did try the 3.0 Ah battery on it, that does work but only at the lowest setting. I did not actually try to hammer anything with that battery just fitment and to know battery would work. Deferred to use the new 5.0 Ah battery for any work at the highest setting uses. I have to admit my 3.0 Ah batteries are the older (no star) type... guessing that it may have slightly different chip on it that limits the power setting on the wrench. Overall extremely impressed and happy with this tool and will find many uses for it.

I am huge fan of Makita power tools, and I own multiple Makita products. All of my Makita tools are corded except for my drill and now my impact. I have a 1/2" and 3/4" Ingersoll Rand air impacts that have tons of power and super reliable like most air tools. Unfortunately, I don't always have access to an air compressor, and I would prefer not to have to use manual hand tools to change a tire when I travel. I've been told by many people that the battery powered impact guns have plenty of power to the job and I can say that this Makita has more power than my 3/4" air impact. This impact is an absolute beast to put it lightly. I will suggest buying a 5.0- or 6.0-amp hour battery to use with this impact gun. If you're looking for a powerful impact that will last and probably replace all of you air impacts, buy the Makita!

Torque is excellent, removes nuts my air impact won't get off. I like that it has 3 rpm/torque settings. Surprisingly heavy but fits my hand OK. Build quality is good, seems like it will take a lot of abuse.

Purchased this because I have the Makita platform and I needed a 1/2 impact wrench for multiple tasks, one being removing stubborn rusted bolts on my vehicle while doing a suspension lift and upgrade. Positives, this is a power packed impact capable of removing some large stubborn bolts. There is very little vibration while using it. The lights is a great feature and functional. Negatives, it's heavy and with repeated use you will need to take breaks in between. Because of the weight, I found myself accidentally hitting the drive button while trying to remove a nuts while laying on back, I don't have this problem with my drills and smaller impact tools, just this one due to the weight and working in awkward positions. Overall this gets the job done and I no longer use my pneumatic impact tools. I would buy again but future redesigns should focus on weight, hence I give it 4 stars.
