510 owner reviews, more than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other power tools and workshop machinery we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
The Milwaukee 2807-20 runs on the widely adopted M18 platform, giving users access to Milwaukee's extensive 18V battery ecosystem. Its 1500 RPM top speed and 7.7-pound weight position it as a capable general-purpose right-angle drill rather than a specialty lightweight or super-heavy-duty option. Based on specs and verified owner reviews it handles drilling through wood framing, pipe strapping, and concrete anchor driving with the right bits.
With 510 reviews at 4.5 stars and 200 units bought last month, the 2807-20 shows consistent demand from the trades. The price of $199.50 is reasonable for an M18-platform bare tool, meaning buyers who already have M18 batteries get immediate value without extra purchase. The 1-amp draw listed in the specs is notably low relative to typical M18 performance and may reflect a listing data issue rather than true load current.
The 7.7-pound weight is heavier than compact 12V options and will be felt in sustained overhead use. Buyers who routinely run wire in attics for hours at a stretch may prefer the lighter Milwaukee 2505-22. For intermittent but demanding angle drilling on an M18 platform, the 2807-20 is a solid and well-proven pick.

Performance notes
The Milwaukee 2807-20 is a cordless 18V right-angle drill spinning at up to 1500 RPM and weighing 7.7 pounds. The M18 platform draws on a large ecosystem of compatible batteries and chargers.

What buyers say
