Great tool. Appreciate the smooth oscillation action. Quick release blade feature is the bomb.

The tool does what it is made for but the only thing I did not like is its to heavy and it does not have a variable speed on it but i do like the quick release to change the blade.

The oscillating tool I received appeared to be one that was previously returned. I was fine with that as long as it functioned properly. After using it through the duration of 2 battery charges and then stopped working completely, no clicking, vibrations, sounds, nothing. Great machine when it was working. I will return it for a replacement soon.

Been in carpentry for years and use these multi tools every day. Dewalt makes a more superior multi tool. Dewalt is brushless has a really bright light and the blade removal is way easier. Normally I choose makita over Dewalt and bought this only because it works with all of my batteries. It does the job and works ok but come on makita, you can do better.
