Our Take

Best for: Mechanics and DIYers needing a compact ratchet for tight spaces.

The Milwaukee 2457-20 M12 ratchet is a sub-compact powerhouse for tight spaces. Its low-profile head slides into engine bays and tight spots where a standard ratchet won't fit. The 35 ft-lbs of torque is enough for most bolts and fasteners, and the variable speed trigger gives you precise control. Standout features include a recessed forward/reverse switch that prevents accidental direction changes, an onboard fuel gauge so you know your battery level, and an LED light to see in dark areas. Redlink Intelligence protects the tool and battery from overheating. The main tradeoff is that this is the tool only - you need an M12 battery and charger. If you already own Milwaukee M12 tools, this is a no-brainer. 99, it's half the list price and a steal for the quality.

Price Analysis

At $84.99, this is 50% off the original price of $169.00 - a solid discount on a premium tool. This is a great time to buy if you need a compact ratchet, especially if you're already in the M12 system.
