SKIL PWRCore 20™ Brushless 20V Oscillating MultiTool with Battery and PWR JUMP™ Charger-OS5937-10

I was glad to find that Skil made a multitool that takes the same battery as the rest of my battery tools. Skil tools have been great tools for my smaller homeowner projects.

Excellent tool. Easy to change cutting blade and other accessories -- magnetized so holds blade in place while completing the "locking in" process. Battery provides lots of power. Having a USB port on the battery is very handy -- used it to charge my cell phone when we had an eight hour power outage due to bad weather.

I actually tried this multi-tool after I bought the bright red multi-tool and it almost vibrated my hands right off. This Skil multi-tool has great vibration reduction and it's done great the last couple projects I've put it through. If I went back I would definitely buy it again.

This oscillating multi-tool is terrific! My first job over the weekend was to replace a section of drywall (about 22"x15" in our dishwasher cabinet. The wall was damaged when our dishwasher broke and flooded the cabinet with water. I never could have made as close fitting, right-angle, and straight cuts with a normal hand drywall saw. I watched a couple of training videos online, but found that the best way for me (at least until I get more experience) to cut a long straight line, is to "plunge cut" along the pencil line. It took a little more time, but worked well. Shorter cuts may be less of a problem. I did get a specialized drywall blade. The tool itself is lightweight and well designed. Vibration was not a problem. This tool uses an on-off switch rather than a trigger and a dial speed control. I found this well-suited for the way I had to work in a confined space. I could use two hands and concentrate on the work rather than controlling the trigger (especially a variable speed trigger). The blade change is done by flipping a lever on top of the head of the tool to the side which opens the mandrel allowing a universal type blade to be inserted. If you need to use a blade that has a closed end mount, when the mandrel is open, you can twist a knob and remove the lower part of the mandrel to mount the blade (you will need to replace the lower part of the mandrel to complete the process). This system was the main reason I selected this tool. The other brand I was contemplating had a lever to squeeze to open the mandrel. A faster system, but the pressure required was almost too much for my older hands and my wife definitely could not do it. Battery life on this tool seems great so far. I was able to complete my project using only 1 bar on the battery (4 bars total). That included cleaning up the hole, cutting the piece to fill the hole, cutting off a stray nail and trying to cut some molding. Everything worked well except the molding, I think I will go back to a miter box and saw for that. The tool comes with an assortment of blades (well marked for materials/function), sanding attachment and sandpaper. The accessories even have a little case to keep them from wandering (a very thoughtful inclusion). It also includes a 2ah battery and rapid charger (the rapid charger is also thoughtful). The only thing missing is a case to replace the box and I will probably get specialized blades as I need them. A suggestion would be to include a depth guide to help work with drywall.

Why isn't this tool spoken about more… Great tool works like it should had the power comfortable in hand attachments snap on and off with ease with that said when it's locked in it's locked in… Vibration barley exists if any….. all in all fantastic oscillating tool…

Works GREAT, lots of power the adjustable speed control is very nice. It really fits your hand well and balance is the best. I have two others and the skill is definately my choice to use because of the power and the ease in operating and handling.

Excellent tool! Wish I had bought it sooner. Has saved me a lot of time helping my grandson with his fixer-upper house. The tool has worked flawlessly and the battery has plenty of strong power to get the job done. Sturdy, well made, balanced and easy to use. I'm very pleased with mt Skil Omni tool.

This was my first Skil PWRCORE 20 tool purchase. I bought it for a specific job (cutting out the cabinet shelf under my kitchen sink) and bought it based on the reviews. I had an old corded tool that vibrated so much I hated to use it and decided it was time to upgrade to cordless. This tool has been awesome! Vibration is barely even noticeable which helped me get more precise cuts. The blade change is quick and easy, and the PowerJump charger is great for quick recharging. I've since used it for cutting off rusty screws, cutting PVC for my sprinkler system, cutting out drywall openings and more. Pretty much vibration free, plenty of power, and so quick and easy to use. Really pleased with the design and quality of the tool.

A good price for this unique tool. My first oscillating tool. I had a bit of trouble with removing joist hangers

Not as i first expect, the 12 c is better than the 20v one, to bulky plus the tool doesn't work well, there is time that you have to turn switch on and off different times because it doesn't work, and one day when i was working with the tiol i noticed some burned smell coming from the motor, weird because was just one simple cut.
