The DeWalt 20v charger works with any DeWalt tool. You can also charge up to 60 volts and 20 volts with this fast charger.

In a multi-oscillating mode It is the latest version of the tool
4/5

My research and reading has led me to find out that DeWalt has three versions of this tool currently available. For your information **There is a DCS354 Atomic 1 Speed, Oscillations Per Minute 0-130 The 18,000. 0 OPM (slowed by 20,000) release in July will be the DCS355 XR (Original) 1 Speed, Oscillations Per Minute 0-96. New 20,000 OPM release due for October 2013
DCS356 XR, 3 speed, 0 to 20,000 OPM The number is 13,000, zero A total of 17,00, and 0 This 20,000 OPM cordless Multi-function monitor is rated one of the best cordless monitors in most reviews when it was released in July. An important tool.

The best so far, but there are also issues
3/5

Testing has been performed on more than eight different multi-platform platforms So far, we have the following tools. Last but not least is DeWalt. A few pros After unboxing, I found it to be well balanced with the battery and without it. Quite a slim tool, however fairly light, and I'm a big fan of the lock on trigger and quick change lever. The cons are There could have been a better location for the multi speed switch (Major disappointment). The handle gets very hot after extended use (TOO HOT to handle even with gloves) it is searing hot even with gloves on. Stopping is necessary to let the body Because it lacks a belt hook, it can be cumbersome to use on a ladder. DeWalt might be able to get a much higher rating if the heat issue is addressed. This is a great design that does a great job. In our opinion, the money value is very good, but it could be worth more if it were.

A pair of blades and an adaptor plate are included
5/5

The description of this item says only "tool" but it does come with a pair of knives and one of two pliers. A HCS blade made of metal and an adaptor plate designed for non-standard cutter sizes Having DeWalt blades will allow you to work efficiently. That would have been nice to know before I bought the blade kit, but whatever. I already own a drill, charger, and batteries, so this was an excellent deal since I do not need to buy those items again. One other factor must also be considered. As DeWalt does not sell a depth guide separately, you are required to buy all three pieces that make up the depth guide This block assembly consists of the N275350 block, the N275341 metal rod, The three are all sold by Amazon.

The hook, unfortunately, does not come with a nut! Generally, DeWalt products are excellent
4/5

The only drawback is that there is no guide tool system for hooks and no nuts for the hooks.

It makes it easy to make straight lines Sanding in tight spaces and cutting in tight cuts
5/5

It is listed as part of the "DEWALT 20V MAX XR Oscillating Multi-Volt Tool 3" line Those who use the "Tool, Variable Speed, Tool Only (DCS356B)" will find there are more and more uses for it as they go along. For my purposes, I mainly use it to make anything that is straight Other kinds of saws would find it more difficult to cut on a flush surface (e. g. Cutting out an outlet box in drywall, or separating a wooden stringer glued to plywood without damaging either the stringer or the plywood), as well as sanding in tight corners (with a triangular sanding adapter that fits uniquely In the future, I will probably use it more on the next project, as it is simple to use and works well. Battery seems long enough to last for most of the tasks one can use this for (it's not a sanding or cutting tool that can handle a lot of volume, but it's perfect for the specialized tasks it performs so well, so I don't mind). The following is my only Due to its high speed vibration and oscillation, it is quite loud. If you plan to use it in the mornings or during the late night when your neighbors might be sleeping, do not use it at those hours. You can think of a gas-powered vehicle The weed whip is powered by a motor. That sounds like a whine which is similar to that of those revving engines, but not quite as deep and throaty. I don't find the volume level painful if you don't use it for long. If you do intend to use it for a long period of time, you might consider wearing hearing protection. It has a similar whine to a high speed random orbital sander, but is bit sharper and a bit more pronounced. Okay, that's it. While oscillating multi-tools are not unheard of, it seems this one seems the best among them My opinion is that it is built, effective, and ideal for someone who is already a fan of the DeWalt 20V Max line of tools. This is a great book!.

This set of guides is not included in the DEWALT oscillating tool kit
3/5

In the product description and its advertising, DEWALT stresses the usefulness of the oscillating tool guide system, but the cut guide block and guide arm don't come with it.

The tight fit feature makes it an excellent tool
4/5

A Mexican tool is made. The tight fit feature makes it an excellent tool. A Mexican tool is made. There will be times when you have to saw something in tight spaces. Using this tool will provide you with the solution you're looking for. Despite its complexity, I find it easy to use. It is easy to operate the There is one thing I was surprised about unlocking the saw blades required quite a bit of force. My ability to do it isn't that great, but it is possible. A key advantage to this mechanism is that you can change the blades without using any This is a tool I would buy It would be more convenient to have it made in the United States.

The only tool you need for demo work
5/5

I've been working on bringing my kitchen up to date for the last few months. The tool came in handy when removing an old back splash as it was able to reach into tight corners between cabinets and drywall, and between counter tops and walls. Though I have a Jig Saw and Recip Saw, I find this tool the most effective. If i hadn't had this tool, I never would have been able to tear all this drywall out. The only tool that could handle cutting down the excess overhang on the sides of the cabinets was this tool. I added two 36-inch under cabinet lights and needed to cut a little of the overhang on the sides of the cabinets. It's a must-have tool, worth every penny, even if it breaks tomorrow, I'd order another copy without a second thought. You can trust this tool 100 percent!.
