It’s not lightweight but it seems to make my hands less sore

I’m well invested in the 18v Makita platform. As tool people know cordless is about the battery and the quality of tool it is designated for. IMO Makita builds tough cordless tools with top notch batteries. Most of which are contractor or shop grade tools. I have decades of construction experience and have thru use landed on Makita for most of my cordless top contenders. This multi tool seems to hit the mark. Not their top model but fits the needs I purchased it to do. As IMO these are a niche tool and they can do things other tools cannot. So a good addition to my 18v. Stable.

Works great. I have so far used it to cut the nail heads off of pallet boards.

This is a very good multitool. It’s powerful and it doesn’t get stuck or stall. It’s pretty decent on battery consumption. It’s built very sturdy. It’s blade release mechanism is really satisfying and easy. I don’t like that there’s no front LED. It’s honestly pretty necessary to see what you’re cutting so I’m gonna have to compensate. All in all though, a very good tool for professional craftsman.

This is might be my new favorite tool now. It’s relatively light. It feels durable. Good battery life and so many attachments. It can do it all. If you come up with even one remotely justifiable reason to buy this tool do it.

As we all Makita products it’s well-made. Works very well. I like the variable speed on the oscillation.

The tool is bigger than competitors but it runs smooth, less chatter.

First of all let me say how I am a huge fan of Makita battery operated tools. Battery operated tools are just something I adore and have been through all of the major brands. When you compare that brands pricing of their product to the longevity, reliability, battery life, and quality of built. Makita will win every time. Im a fan of Milwaukee tools as well, as the quality of their tools and the variety of battery operated tools they off is unsurpassed. That being said. Milwaukee tools are also more expensive and dont offer enough gain over Makita to make the higher price worth it. Dewalt tools are my least favorite. I too fell victim back in the day to the overly hyped and overpriced yellow tools targeted towards the every day professional. The simple truth about dewalt tools is that they just dont last. Every dewalt tool I have owned had to be replaced before it should have. The stuff is just garbage.
Anyway. I love these multi-tools and have found them useful for so many things. Most recently in my master bathroom. I am remodeling my master bathroom. The bathtub surround is going to be tile, which means out with the drywall and in with the cement board. The tile is not going to go all the way to the ceiling nor will it go all the way to the edge of the wall. So i wanted a fairly precise way to cleanly cut out the drywall that would be replaced with cement board. Thus the Makita Multi tool. Now I do have a corded Multi-tool, but I just didnt want to be tethered to the wall for this. Seeing as since I am redoing the entire bathroom. There is stuff everywhere in there and didnt want to add an extension cord to the mix. I chose this Makita multi tool, because I already have a bunch of Makita Batteries. Just so happens this is a great tool that Makita put some thought into. First of all I love the tooless blade chages. Simply pull the release lever back, pull the threaded stud out, put the new blade on, put the threaded stud back in place, and lock it down by pushing the lever forward. Makita also includes adapters so that you can use just about any brand multi tool blade with tool. I am so happy that Makita opted for a simple on and off switch with this tool instead of a trigger pull. Some brands use trigger pulls on their multi tools and it is so cumbersome trying to wield a tool such as this one and keep a consistent pull on the trigger. So instead Makita opted for the simple on off switch with a variable speed setting knob. Way to use the ole noggin Makita. Another great feature of this tool is the action casing part of the tool that holds the battery. You will notice you are able to wiggle this part of the independently from the main tool. Dont freak out. It is not defective. Its meant to be that way. The battery casing is slightly articulating so that it can vibrate independently from the tool itself. This does 2 things. Mainly it increases the life of your battery, because vibrations can be detrimental to batteries and this tool decreases those vibrations by allowing the battery case to vibrate independently of the tool casing itself. This also helps reduce some of the vibration that is transferred to your hand, because it acts sort of like a pendulum counteracting the vibrations from the tool.
Just make sure you get yourself a good set of headphones or earplugs, because these things are loud when you are cutting with them The loudness is not unique to this specifically multi tool. Every multi tool I have ever used is ear shattering loud during cutting. So make your ears happy and use some earplugs.
