Does it work with other brands' blades?

Yes. It uses a universal adapter and is compatible with most multi-tool accessories, so blades and sanding pads from other brands generally fit.

Is it corded or cordless?

It is corded, so it runs on wall power with no battery to charge. That gives steady power but limits how far you can work from an outlet.

What comes in the box?

The tool, a segment blade, a 1-1/8 in. wood cutting blade, a sanding pad, five sandpaper sheets, a universal adapter, a tool bag and the manual.

How fast does it oscillate?

Up to 20,000 oscillations per minute, controlled by a two-finger variable speed trigger.

How do I get the lifetime service agreement?

Register the tool within 90 days of purchase to get free parts and service for life under RIDGID's agreement.

Is it good for flush cuts?

Yes. The low-profile head and oscillating action suit flush cuts against flooring, drywall and trim.

Our take on the 4 Amp Corded Oscillating Multi-Tool

The RIDGID R28700 is a corded oscillating multi-tool with a 4 amp motor that reaches up to 20,000 oscillations per minute. A two-finger variable speed trigger lets you match speed to the cut, and the tool-free accessory change works with most multi-tool blades and pads. Its low-profile body is built for flush cuts and reaching into tight spaces. It ships as a kit with blades, a sanding pad and sheets, an adapter and a bag, and it is registered for RIDGID's lifetime service agreement. Against cordless rivals it trades battery freedom for steady power and no charging; against premium brands it is a simpler, heavier tool with fewer speed presets.
