What can the Makita Oscillating Tool Kit cut?

It handles plunge cuts, flush cuts and detail sanding. The included plunge blade is meant for wood and similar soft materials; harder materials need the right blade fitted.

Does it have variable speed?

Yes. The dial varies output from 6,000 to 20,000 OPM, so you can run slow for sanding and fast for cutting.

Is it corded or cordless?

It is corded, with an 8 ft cord. There is no battery to charge, but you need an outlet within reach.

The tool and a plunge blade (A-95255). Other blades and sanding pads are sold separately.

How does it compare with a cordless oscillating tool?

It gives constant power and never needs charging, but it is heavier and tied to a cord. Cordless models trade some power for freedom of movement.

Contractors and DIYers who want a straightforward corded multi-tool for trim work, cutouts and sanding in tight spots.

Our take on the Makita Oscillating Tool Kit

The Makita Oscillating Tool Kit is a corded oscillating multi-tool built around a 3 amp brushed motor with variable speed from 6,000 to 20,000 OPM. It comes with a plunge blade and an 8 ft cord, so it handles flush cuts, plunge cuts and detail sanding without hunting for an outlet. It suits contractors and DIYers who want a simple, durable corded tool rather than a battery platform. Against cordless rivals it never runs out of power, but it is heavier and tethered to a cord.
