Milwaukee Gen 4 vs DeWalt 860 vs Flex Tools Impact Driver

Join us in the most comprehensive tool testing event of the year as we put the industry’s leading impact drivers to the test!

Our no-holds-barred approach to tool testing ensures you get the unfiltered truth about each impact driver’s performance.

Milwaukee 2953 - Known for its robust build and reliable performance, Milwaukee’s contender shows why it’s a favorite among professionals. Watch as it drives screws with precision and power, a testament to Milwaukee’s commitment to quality.

DeWalt DCF860 - The newest addition to the DeWalt family, the DCF860, enters the fray with something to prove. Despite its inconsistent runs, it often outpaces the competition, making it the fastest impact driver in our tests. However, is speed everything? We dive deep into whether DeWalt’s latest innovation stands up to real-world demands.

Flex Quick Eject - Flex Tools brings its A-game with the Quick Eject impact driver. Its unique features and ergonomic design challenge the status quo, offering a fresh perspective on what an impact driver can be.

While the DeWalt DCF860 showcased impressive speed, making it the best DeWalt impact driver yet, our review reveals why we hesitate to give it our full endorsement. Discover the strengths and weaknesses of each tool and decide which impact driver deserves a spot in your toolbox.

You’re definitely the only channel I’ve seen that shows the battery of each tool, shows the speed of each tool, what you’re drilling into, the type of screw and the specs of the tool.

It really shows a level of transparency that you just don’t see in the other channels.

Keep up the great work sir, your channel is definitely underrated.

I'm a huge advocate for the hydraulic impact drivers. They are so buttery smooth!!! My favorite thing about impact drivers is feeling like I'm in control without any force on my body. The Milwaukee Surge is my daily driver

[doctorlefthandthread]

Please give this man a like no one tests them like him

[TorqueTestChannel]

1:06 pretty close either way, but we said 3840 RPM simply because that's what it measures at. The Flex is 4, 450 IPM

Great test thank you. Too powerful, fast and big for my needs. Really interesting to hear about the effects of using it. If you drive big fasteners I guess it has it uses but as you’ve told us use a drill and save yourself from being deafened and shaken using a monster impact driver.

I would take flex because they sometimes offer the founder warranty they did last year and they might do it again so I'm gonna take flex cause lifetime warranty is also the best

[ethanmunger]

The stuff you have been saying about it being hard to keep on a screw came to fruition in watching Torque Test Channel. Where the impact machanism hits the planetaries and causes that.

[jordenb]

For the money the Flex is untouched! They are so cheap now you can get the flex with a double stacked 10 amp hour battery for less than those other 2. It will be faster for sure with the big battery. Flex for the win!

[anthonynakhoul]

I wish they would start selling Flex here in Australia

[FoxOutdoors]

So for light to medium duty fasteners it comes down to which tool is more comfortable to use (which the dewalt loses) cause they are all about the same

[Crimsonvandal]

I don't know why people would go with flex when it weighs a metric ton when the others perform just as well

[allenpierce]

i would like to make a note that you are using the milwuakee fuel m18 wrong, it is supposed to be with a High output 3ah or 6ah hour battery because it gets 25% more power from it, otherwise using a 5ah attery is just like using a regular milwaukee m18 impact driver

[DOLPEDIY]

Nice video and good test setup more realistic!

[traviscade]

Why is it that with the timber screw you took your right hand off with the flex and milwaukee but not the dewalt?

[hopemosley]

I would love to see your thoughts on Hilti ?

[StewartAntonio]

Hey dude, a bit of feedback, you flash the results way to fast to read I had to go back and pause to read them at 1:47 it would be nice if you left them on the screen a little longer

[kingdom.citizen]

Does it matter that one is 24v, 20v, 18v. Should you use a different battery?

[victorfeliciano]

so big question which one is the best one ? planing to buy a system. thanks

[InaMopar]

I was really exited to buy a gen 4 Milwaukee but then I saw a few videos and a read a bit about some problems they can get and now I’m not sure about it. What would you say about that and have you had any issues, I know torque test channel has bought like 6

[DeutzDXFahrerKalli]

I like impact driver, i've the Milwaukee Gen4 18V and the 12V, Dewalt 12v and the Bosch GDX aka Freak.
