Our take on the DeWALT 20V MAX XR Brushless Cordless 3-Speed Oscillating Multi-Tool, Tool Only (DCS356B)

The DeWalt DCS356B is a cordless oscillating multi-tool built on the 20V MAX battery platform. Its brushless motor delivers up to 57% more runtime than a comparable brushed tool, and a 3-speed selector plus dual-grip variable-speed trigger let you slow the cut for clean trim work or speed it up for faster material removal. The Quick-Change system swaps blades without a wrench, and a universal adapter fits other brands' accessories. It suits trim carpenters, remodelers and DIYers already invested in 20V MAX batteries; it is sold as a bare tool, so batteries and charger are extra.

About the DeWALT 20V MAX XR Brushless Cordless 3-Speed Oscillating Multi-Tool, Tool Only (DCS356B)

The DeWALT DCS356B is a cordless oscillating multi-tool for cutting, scraping, detail sanding and flush work in tight spaces. It runs on the DeWALT 20V MAX battery system and is sold as a bare tool, so the battery and charger are sold separately.

It has a 3-speed selector and a dual-grip variable speed trigger. The speed range is 0 to 20,000 oscillations per minute, with a 1.6-degree oscillation angle. The brushless motor delivers up to 57% more run time than a comparable brushed tool. Run time can be extended by using FLEXVOLT batteries with compatible 20V MAX tools.

The Quick-Change accessory system swaps blades and attachments without a wrench. A universal accessory adapter lets the tool work with most oscillating accessory brands. A built-in LED light helps light the work area.
