Review Summary

Fein created the first oscillating multi-tool and dominated the category until its patent expired a few years ago. So those German engineers know a thing or two about making these tools. This model has the most robust motor and body, weighing in at just over 4 lbs—nearly double that of most competitors. It's got a 16' cord to give you lots of flexibility, and it packs away easily in the nice plastic case (as does the tool, which can keep an attachment in place).

…

This is the most comprehensively equipped sanding tool in the test: It comes with triangular sanding pads with and without dust collection holes, a round sanding pad, and a set of linear profile sanding contour pads, as well as lots of sanding sheets. Dust collection was great when hooked to a shop vacuum. Its tool-changing system is tool-free, the first to achieve that; it's a little stiff, but works aptly. But this is the loudest tool in the category by far, topping out at an ear-splitting 106 dB.

You've got a tiger by the tail with this tool

Reviewed by: mswoodcraft

Review Summary

As said above, prepare to need hearing protection with this tool. At 106dB it was four times louder than its nearest competitor. I performed the head-to-head tests in the recent WOOD magazine shootout of these tools. It is beefy and heavy. You are going to need two hands to control this tool - especially if you're doing something delicate like grinding out a grout line in tile.

…

It's extremely easy to get off track without a two-handed grip on this monster. It does sand more aggressively than does its competition. Lingering in one spot too long can create divots. Practice first before committing to any delicate work. It is very good at what it does. Just be aware that you will have a tiger by the tail when you use it.
