Pros & Cons

Pros

If you are already invested in the makita lxt ecosystem, this tool is an inexpensive and extremely useful addition to your toolbox. The latest version of makita’s multi tool is 10 times better than the previous two models.

No more numb hands and tingly arms. This one is quieter, faster, harder to bog down, and you feel no vibration. Avt also protects your batteries from vibration damage.

Its a lot bigger than my old corded ridgid, but still managable. It's less than an inch shorter than the previous model, but substantially bulkier. The area around the head is a little big but in no way a deal breaker.

Packaging/appearance

Was delivered in perfect shape exactly when they said it would be.

I found that glaziers working on high rise building at one time used specific fein blades to remove caulk without damaging the ... Read More

Competitiveness

The makita multi-tool costs more than other other multi-tools but the anti-vibration technology works as advertised especially ... Read More

Got this because i needed a vibe saw and already had a collection of makita lxt 18v tools.

So i opted for a pricey 18v brushless xmt makita.

The tool arrived and i removed it from the package and installed an aftermarket 18v battery.
