    This is a really incredible video. I'm not a contractor. I'm a homeowner and I own zero tools (well not really, I have a full woodshop of antique hand tools--I have no powertools). I needed a multi-tool for a small job and I wanted the best option. I think one thing this comparison doesn't really consider is the tool brand eco-system. I was buying into a new system, buying my first ever battery and charger. Because of this, I decided on the DeWalt. I would have loved the Milwaukee, but looking at the cost, and the cost of their other tools, it seemed to make sense to go with DeWalt--all their tools are 10-50% less in cost, and also well regarded and sell well on used markets. I hope I made the right choice!

    For me, the only tools in this test i would are the ones that can take starlock max. So feil, festool or makita(maybe flex also but i live i europe so...). The system has much better transmission of power and can take longer blades and it Will last alot longer. In the future this will become the standard like sds has become. With the longer blades you get more movement, from the oscilation and better cuttingspeed. I don't think this is pointed out or tested here.
    But i must say, i love your h2h test and all the other stuf you do at Toolbox buzz.

    Milwaukee won with a brand new tool and Dewalt is really second with a 6 yr old tool which goes to show that when Dewalt makes tools they take their time and get them right the first time not three generations of the tool later.
    Also you know you can buy the Dewalt oscillator, 1 battery, charger and bag for $99 all the time throughout the year and right now.

One thing I was disappointed wasn't mentioned was the very useful accessories available for the Festool OSC18. I have both it and the Milwaukee, and when it comes to precision work, especially for trim carpentry, I reach for it every time. Add the dust shroud, depth stop, and plunge guide, and it's on a whole other level compared to the others. Sure, it's not as fast and powerful like the Milwaukee, which I also have and use primary for demo and exterior work, but it is smooth, precise and easy on the hand.

    Great test criteria.....However as a follow up I would absolutely love to see you add two additional tests.
    On the cutting of wood and metal cutting perform the tests with the ideal (for each brand of tool) cutting pressure on the sled platform as a weaker tool or one with a longer stroke will generally perform better with a lower blade pressure but will loose its lead and often will fall behind when the pressure on the tool is increased.
    As far as noise level I would assume that having the tool mounted in the jig may well be altering the results of the test......this is one test where doing a dual test first with sled/jig and second with the tool in the hands of various operators (average the results) may produce different and more accurate real world results.
    Please don't take the comments negatively your reviews are the best out there, I just feel these few changes may be beneficial.

    • @TaelonSHU

      That might explain the weird no load noise measure of Milwaukee despite having variable speed control.
      The insane difference in cutting speed is so baffling that I'm amazed it wouldn't be a bigger talking point, why would any professional use anything other than Milwaukee multitool when it saves so much time. Noise is far less of an issue in a construction site.
      Now I don't have any knowledge in this field, so maybe Im missing something, but it comes across that something is not right in the speed test.

    For anyone who has trouble with the Matabo HPT blade change, if you use open back blades there is a sweet spot with the pin where it can be lose enough to get the blades in and out without using the unlock collar and still have the blade be tight. It can be a pain to get the pin set in the right spot but once you do blade changes a quite fast. I opinion on the tool is that it is well made and a good value, but the more expensive offerings from other brands are better. I got mine on sale at Lowes with the 18v framing nailer for $300, I would not buy it on it's own.
    I love the review(s).

    As a self-employed gardener, I don't use these tools very often, but thinking about replacing my corded Stanley . Recently bought the Milwaukee M12 hatchet, so now on the platform. Would you recommend the M12 fuel multi tool?

      ​@@rickyperkins232 Well I was just being polite. They're actually more than comparable and are better than most, especially the Skil. I know the Skil is better than the DeWalt which ranked high. The Kobalt is on par with the DeWalt. The tool/battery for these are near half the price of the Milwaukee and DeWalt. So it was a mistake to not include these two really good, more economic tools.

    I've watched this multiple times and even decided on a Milwaukee M12 fuel based on this, personal experience with the M18 fuel and other reviews. But then I actually tried the new Makita XMT04ZB myself and as a result, returned the Milwaukee tool after using the new Makita. My personal experience didn't make sense in comparison, so I watched this video again and just saw the possible reason that none of this testing has jibed with other reviewers when compared directly against the Makita XMT04ZB shown in the video. At 16:49 a list of the price comparisons shows the old Makita XMT03Z in the price ranking, not the latest XMT04ZB. So what gives? Did you guys actually test the latest XMT04ZB in your hands or did you just add some footage in afterward and assume the specs would be close to the old XMT03Z? I can tell you they are not at all the same. The M18 fuel definitely has low vibration compared to a multitool without decoupling, and it does deserve its high ranking as a fast and powerful multitool, but there's no way the Makita ranks lower in noise or vibration when compared to Milwaukee. So I question this testing and ranking accuracy here. If you're looking for a quieter and very low vibration tool, the Makita XMT04ZB definitely out performs the Milwaukee in that respect, and for me personally, that's far more important than the slight speed advantage the Milwaukee fuel has.

    Looks like the Ryobi p/n is inaccurate, possibly from an older video. Seems like prices might be off on some these other ones too. I know this is a year old, but did prices really double since then? 2836-20 Milwaukee is $229 tool only at home depot.

    Pretty interesting shootout I own the Milwaukee m12 and metabo hpt now. I hate the metabo because of the blade change. I used to have all DeWalt stuff but it had the least oscillating of any I've ever had. It took forever to cut through something.
