Great power
Bought this primarily to zip off and on lug nuts. Works great. Haven't had any so far that it wouldn't break loose. Very happy with the power and battery life.

Like all my 18 volt Makita Tools it performs as advertised. Breaks loose anything I have used it on so far. Great deal as a 5 amp hr battery came with it. Can't get much better than that.

Wrench loosen bolts, and more.
Bought this wrench to tackle replacing brakes & shock on my 5 year old GMC. While the impact wrench worked like a champ on breaking loose a dozen or so rusted bolts, the base of the wrench also came loose. It still works fine, but the loose base & battery don't inspire a lot of confidence toward this tool's longevity. Maybe it's supposed to loosen up ? Maybe a defect ?

Great tool
I’ve been a Makita tool fan since my first cordless drill in 1987.
I have also been highly impressed with every saw, drill, etc.cordless or wall powered. Makita tools have always had their fans of those in the know about their products. That said,so far my 18v xwt08 impact has done everything I’ve asked of it.
The design and feel is first rate.
Makita tool fan? Yes I am.

Very impressive.
Let me just say this thing is a hoss, huge amounts of power for a cordless tool. I have yet to put this on a bolt that it wouldn't take loose.

Another quality makita product, keep it up.
Very strong tool, it's beefy at 8lbs however it quickly makes up for its heft with strength! It's removed lug nuts with easy and no air compressor noise.

What is the difference between the XWT08XVZ and XWT08XZ tools?

Makita XWT08Z 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless High Torque 1/2 in. Square Drive Impact Wrench (Tool Only)

BEST ANSWER: I'm assuming that the difference is that one has the anvil ring and the other has the detent ring. The detent ring style is a PITA because you need a screwdriver or some other tool to push the pin in when you go to chamge the socket, while the anvil ring style uses friction alone to hold the socket on the anvil, thus making it much easier and faster when it's time to change sockets.
