BoschGOP18V-34N 18V Brushless StarlockPlus® Oscillating Multi-Tool (Bare Tool)

You may or may not like that it requires Bosch specific blades but the thing is an excellent performer, especially if you are going to use it for long periods. The balance is good and the vibration-reduction is valuable. It is variable speed, can put blades at 90 degree angles (like cutting a metal pipe from within the pipe - priceless), and the blades are high quality even if not cheap. Using this thing to remove/trim poorly applied caulk - vs. using a knife - is like a hot knife through butter. Cutting tools (which can be dangerous) are one thing your should always buy quality. I'm not saying other manufacturers aren't, but this is a quality tool.

Like everyone else, I wish I'd have bought one of these a decade ago. Solid tool, great balance and weight, doesn't vibrate too much. Sorta wish I'd have gotten the 4Ah battery, but I have an ecosystem of Bosch tools so a few 2Ah packs are always charged. Solid kit

As a pretty avid DIY handyman, I don't know how I made it this long without one of these tools. But with a big basement renovation project after a flood, I had a lot of demo and drywall work to do, and finally decided to pick one up. I have a bunch of other Bosch 18V tools, so naturally I gravitated to Bosch's offering.I was impressed by how useful this tool is - it quickly rips through even the old-growth studs in my old house like butter, and makes short work of drywall. More than enough power for cutting easily through everything I've set it against The grip is comfortable and it is easy to maneuver in tight spots.Battery life is pretty good, I get a couple of hours of intermittent use out of a 2Ah battery. A bigger battery would of course last longer, but makes the tool heavier, so I'm ok with swapping small batteries more frequently. For the money I spent, I'm very satisfied with this tool. Bosch generally makes good power tools, and this one is no exception.

I remember my first oscillating being loud and having poor/no dampening, to the point where there would ghost sensations after using it for extended periods of time. This Bosch tool is lightyears ahead of my old oscillating tool. To start, the tool is very light -- even with the battery. The battery life is fantastic and what you would expect from a Bosh product. The vibrations are almost nonexistent, which makes using this tool for extended periods of time a joy. When you pair the lightweight nature of it, with the dampening quality of the tool, you can make easy precise cuts without issue.

I think of this tool as a "last resort" device. When there isn't room for a rotary saw or die grinder, this tool will do the job. Yes, it is horribly overpriced, but it is built like hammer and just plain works. I will never let mine go (or even loan it out, for that matter).

Larger and heavier, compared to other model I tried before, which results in low vibration during work. Comfortable grip. Feels like the best multitool I've been using so far.Disadvantage: difficult to change position of the ON/OFF switch (no good grip).Problem: I bought this tool in February, been lightly using it for home renovation, and after 4 months the ON/OFF switch got stuck in ON position, so now I cannot move it and the tool doesn't work. This malfunction is really disappointing.BOSCH team, please fix the switch on this model to something reliable and easy to operate.

This tool is designed better than the previous version, you can see your battery life indicator without removing the battery, it can get into more tight spaces, it has the ability to turn the light on by moving the switch to the first position without actually turning the saw on which can be very helpful for getting your cuts lined up if you're working in a dark or confined space such as under a cabinet.The battery fits much tighter in this one than the last generation which drastically helps reduce the level of vibration when using. Quality update, definitely worth picking up, I would even recommend picking it up if you already have the last generation and are looking for a little bit better quality tool. The blade change mechanism on Bosch's multi-tools is second to none and should be the industry standard

Love this tool. Very heavy but feels good in your hand. The only thing that would make this better is a vacuum port for the dust
