Default Bosch oscillating tool review

I wanted a better oscillator as I have a full kitchen and two
bathrooms coming up, and these tools are made for
maintenance/repair/remodeling contractors. I saw this one at the low
price, and now I wish I had bought two! Still, even at $129 it is
well worth the money. Then of course, the elephant in the room if
you are looking for a multitool... compare the price of this tool to
the commensurate model Fein and look at the price difference. You
could almost buy 3 of these for the cost of the Fein!

Great review! The only issue I have is the last statement.
The Fein can be had for $150-199 at many places.
The great news is that with another multi-tool equal in performance to
the Fein, that means competition and competition mean lower prices
and/or incentives for us, the buyers.



ALso the big advantage to the competition is that blades are no longer
$35-$40 each!
