Milwaukee warranty for trimmers, blowers & chainsaws
The short version
Milwaukee doesn't cover everything, but keeps whole tool (excluding battery) covered to 3 years. That full coverage is shorter than most of the 9 brands we compared, which typically cover 2 years in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Milwaukee's published warranty, checked October 2026.
