Our take on the Milwaukee 2526-20 M12 Oscillating Multi-Tool with M12 2.0 Battery

The Milwaukee 2526-20 is a sub-compact cordless oscillating multi-tool built for cutting, sanding and plunge cuts in tight spots. It runs on Milwaukee's M12 battery system and uses a brushless motor with variable speed, so it has more power and runtime than older brushed 12V tools. The slim barrel grip and rubber over-mold make it easy to control one-handed. It is a tool-only style kit, so check what batteries and charger come in the box before you buy.

Questions and answers

Is the Milwaukee 2526-20 worth it?
Yes for M12 owners who do trim, sanding and plunge cuts. It is small, smooth and brushless. If you mostly cut hard wood or metal all day, an 18V tool is the better buy.
How is it different from the older M12 multi-tool?
The 2526-20 adds a brushless motor and a slimmer barrel grip. That means more runtime and less vibration than the brushed version. It also has a variable speed dial.
What batteries does it use?
It runs on Milwaukee M12 12V batteries. Listings vary, so confirm whether you get a 2.0Ah, 3.0Ah or 4.0Ah pack, or tool only.
Does it come with a case?
No. The 2526-20 does not include a case. Plan on a bag or a separate Milwaukee case if you need one.
Can it cut metal and drywall?
Yes, with the right blade. It handles plunge cuts in drywall, PVC and thin metal. Expect slower going in thick steel.
When is it cheapest?
Watch for Milwaukee promotions around holidays and tool events. Kit bundles with extra batteries often cost little more than the bare tool.
