    I'm looking forward to getting this. I'm heavily invested in the M12 line. I also have the Bosch line too and that planer is great. Just got the new barrel grip M12 Jigsaw and wow...took them long enough but it was worth the wait. Got it on sale for $129 and couldn't be happier. Can't wait for the Brad to come out. Only does 1-1/2" nails but for the size you can't really complain. 12v technology has come such a long way and alot of them work like full sized tools. As a finish carpenter and woodworker, they can handle anything. The Milwaukee and Dewalt 5-3/8" circ saws leave a lot to be desired (I have the Dewalt and Makita 12v lines also🤷🏻‍♂️)....now that I'm thinking about it, my addiction to tools probably has something to do with being divorced twice🤣

    Finally somebody did another small cordless planer. I have the "original" Bosch 12V model for a few years already and use it almost every day in the workshop. It is way more useful than the bigger 18V planers! A fabulous little gem. And now Milwaukee have literary copied the design, but made it with two blades and substantially more powerful. Excellent!

    Why they don't do an M18 fuel planer is beyond me.. I have the M18 brushed planer and agree with what has already been said. It's heavy, isn't very efficient on battery power and snipes way more than my old Bosch which felt much better in the hand. Milwaukee.. please bring out an M18 fuel planer.. I'm definitely going to look into getting this M12. It looks a lot more nimble than the M18.
