    In this video I review the Harbor Freight Multifunction Oscillating Multi-tool. This video is a Buyer's Guide since I will be looking at all 3 models available currently and discussing the pros and cons of each model. I will explain which one I think is the better choice but ultimately you have to decide which one is best for you! Hopefully as I go through the features it will help you make a more informed purchase. Any questions or comments add them below and I'll be happy to address them.

    I just paid $16.84 for the Variable Speed, 2.1 Amp, oscillatingMultitool with the 7 piece kit at Walmart and Harbor Freight wants $34.95 at this time. Found this while taking your sanding pad advice. Saved a bunch. Thanks

      I too have noticed that Walmart is making some really good tools with their HyperTough line, and cheaper than Harbor Freight as you mentioned. I will be reviewing some of their tools in the near future since I am all about the best bang for the buck.

    If you ever get a chance to, check out the Hercules oscillating multi tool, just picked it up, pretty good quality multi tool, a tad pricey for the usual harbor freight pricing, but well worth it..

    Just use a saw for cutting like that. Those are nice for cutting door trim for tile projects

    I've had to replace switches in a couple harbor freight tools, otherwise they've been solid workhorses.. cheap fixes. Great video 👍👍

    Heavier doesn't necessarily mean better.cll components. I have no idea about this tool specifically, but lot of times manufacturers will actually put dummy weights inside products to make them feel more substantial.

  • @dallaspilotcar9293
    @dallaspilotcar9293 Рік тому

    THe issue that I have is that I used the sander attachment one time and now none of the hook and loolp sanding pads will still to it any longer

    • @ModernDIYProjects
      @ModernDIYProjects  Рік тому +1

      Yeah, HF stuff can be rather poor quality in some situations. Get a new pad from a different manufacturer and you will have much better results. The parts are universal fit, so any vendor will do.

    I’m about to order a package of 66 different attachments from a generic vender. They say they fit Black & Decker Bosch Craftsman Dewalt. They look just like the ones that came with my Chicago Electric. The only difference is they are quick release blades. I watched another video that had the same quick release blades on the tool. Would you buy the package deal or stick with single non quick release blades?

    • @ModernDIYProjects
      @ModernDIYProjects  4 роки тому +1

      I have never used a quick release on mine so I can't say if it will work or not. I would suggest before making a decision, you contact the vendor and ask if 1- Will it fit the Harbor Freight tool, and 2- If it doesn't fit, can you return it for a FULL refund. That should give you safe way to deal with this decision. If you decide not to buy this set, go check out Walmart, they have good prices on attachments for these and they always take things back if it doesn't work out.

    I own that same oscillating tool I was wondering if anyone see the similarities to the Fein multimaster the old one i wonder if i found one cheap with a dead motor would the front end fit this one because of because of similar look

    • @ModernDIYProjects
      @ModernDIYProjects  Рік тому

      That is a tough question. The look on the exterior may be the same but I can't say if the internals are the same.

    • @ModernDIYProjects
      @ModernDIYProjects  3 роки тому

      You really need to crank it down for it to stay. If it continues you may want to return it for another one.

    I've beat the #$&@ out of this tool and it's still running. Bulky though.

    • @ModernDIYProjects
      @ModernDIYProjects  5 років тому

      That is true! Like the old Craftman power tools, very bulky.
