Decent tool and a reasonable price.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an adequate tool for the weekend DIY warrior. It fits all the universal blades and has really no trouble running any of them. I got the tool on sale so the price point was the deal breaker for me. Most likely would’ve gone with a Dewalt or Ryobi if this one had not been substantially cheaper.
The only real negative I have is that the motor gets very hot after a few minutes of use and I’m not sure of the longevity of the electric motor because of it. I just have never had this issue with a little higher grade power tool.

Must have tool
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've always wanted one and pulled the trigger. This tool is fantastic and has more power that I thought. I bought it to sand the corners of my wood floors and this dis the job. It came with 89,100, 240 grit paper. The 80 grit made the job much faster. I would buy this tool again as a gift for someone.

Plunge cut in tight quarters.
I hadn't used an oscillating cutter before but it looked right for plunge cutting a vent hole in 2x6 stock mounted in tight quarters. At first, I wondered if I had made a mistake. Turns out too little pressure doesn't cut and too much pressure stalls the oscillation and also doesn't cut. Making no progress I couldn't figure out what was wrong. Fortunately it was getting dark and by headlamp I observed this oddity in the sweep of the blade and could then make adjustments in pressure to ensure continued progress. I was pleased with the result. The tool is definitely suited to plunge cutting in tight quarters, much less concerning than a reciprocal cutter when you have no idea what is behind the stock you are intending to cut. I haven't had a chance to try the other applications of this multi-tool but look forward to discovering them.

Great tool for the money
Great tool so far. A little skimpy on attachments but for 80$ you can't go wrong. Not too whiney (compared to others I've used). Changing blade/angle is easy and quick. Size is right, with a sturdy build and high to low power. Very happy with a week of heavy use on site.

Good power, ergonomics, and utility
I got this tool today. I chose corded, since wired models generally have better overall performance regardless of brand.
Using the tool for grout removal was a synch. It sawed out grouting quick and easy.
The only downsides were: vibration, heat, and noise. Tingling from vibration did not effect precision, nor was it ‘uncomfortable’ at all settings; however, the sensation was noticeable after use it for a while. Heat buildup, as stated in the tool manual, is worse at lower OPS settings on the speed dial. However, quickly removing the head, and running the multi unloaded at the highest setting for roughly 1 minute (as instructed) cools the tool enough for continued use.
Lastly, sound from idling was significant enough to warrant wearing earplugs.

Definitely worth it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this to cut some tile (didn't get the right attachment though) ended up using it to cut wood trim. All I have to say is....AWESOME!!! I am going to use this tool for everything now! It has lots of power and is easy to handle. I love that you can put the attachments on in any direction for ease of use. I don't know why I waited so long to get one. Happy, happy, happy!

compatible with Versatrack? not so much!!
The box and online specs state that this and many of the other V20 cordless tools are compatible with the Versatrack system. Then the fine print says the clips are sold seperately. I was able to research an discover the needed clips are part number CMSTC4VT, but Guess what? The clips cannot be found anywhere. I even spent 42 minutes on the phone with Craftsman customer care and parts department. They said they don't have any information on when they will be available. This is not Craftsman like. I am not sure what is up but I am very disappointed that I cannot get them to work with the Versatrack system.
