zero vibration

I have had multi tools in the past, but this model is far superior to any I’ve ever owned! There is almost 0 vibration while using the tool, I could use it for long periods of time in odd angles without feeling arm fatigue. I also love the fact that you don’t need another tool like a Allen wrench to change bits. It’s a simple twist off pin that you use with your hand, couldn’t be simpler. I love this tool!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First time using this tool. Most impressed with this tool of all skil tools. This tool has far less vibration than my other multi tools. the design is slick and innovated. My only complaint would be the quick release. I don't like the twist top. The tool is great with a long lasting battery. I'm a fan

It was worth the wait

I want to say that I am very impressed with this oscillating tool. The whole idea of reducing vibration and being brushless/cordless was the very reason why I wanted to try this out and it truly delivered. I have used the Dewalt and I wasn't happy with the vibration especially over long period of time and even owned Ridgid jobmax at one point for its multiple head attachments. I have been looking for other brands even outside of Milwaukee, which it's my main platform and eventually I came across Skil, a brand I heard of but not very familiar with till the very day they were bought by Chervon and announced their new line of cordless tools. The first tool that caught my attention was their 12v brushless oscillating tool, which I currently own as well. It's a much better tool than Dewalt, but there is still room for improvement. Its 20V cousin is really something I have never experienced before with their VRS technology and I hope Skil continues to improve on it from here on out. If I had unlimited battery, I can basically cut all day with this tool without being bothered by its vibration or lack there of. I have control over the piece I am cutting and it really CUTS LIKE BUTTER. Do yourself a favor and give this tool a go and Skil, don't slack off and continue to release this tool. Only time will tell if this is going to last long.

No more itchy hands

The Ridgid multitool I was using before this would vibrate so much that it would cause my hands to itch - but that no longer happens with this one. It's easy to switch the tools - the light in front is great and the ability to charge my phone from the battery is a huge bonus.

Very Helpful tool when doing work inside kitchen sink cabinet. Really speeded up the repair process in such a close work area.

COULD BE BETTER
on June 10, 2021

I just bought this today and was very excited. However, the blades my 20v combo came with were horrible. I was not able to cut off a wood screw. And what is more concerning is that when installing or removing blades the head (motor) would move as it's not 1 complete piece. I know it has VRS but having the motor move easily makes me think eventually it will get loose enough to where it will break off or not functions properly anymore. Nice looking tool, but needs to be better built.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great new tool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was able to use this tool for the first time today. Could not get over how fast the battery charged. Also substantially less vibration than my old multi-tool. I had carpal tunnel surgery a year ago, when I got done working today my hands didn't hurt, that would not have been true with my old multi-tool.
I would recommend this to a friend!
