BoschCordless Multifunction Tool UniversalMulti 18V-32 (for Repairing and Adjusting; 1x Saw Blade, 1x Cut Blade, 1x Sanding Plate, 6X Sanding Sheets, 1x Allen Key; Without Battery)

This was a present for my husband. It was great to have the option to buy without the battery as we already have two or three. This saved me a few quid.Since my chap received it, he's got all manner of jobs done around the house, quickly with no fuss. That's before he buys additional attachments. Everyone seems to have their favourite brands - we're a Bosch house because we've never bought anything that didn’t work well or wasn't well constructed. This addition hasn't disappointed and has a load of potential to do a whole load more. It is certainly a winning pressie to give - he is delighted with it.

Well done Bosch. A lighter d smaller version of the multi tool but still with the power.Very pleased to use to fit cabinets. Excellent tool. Highly recommend it. I used it to trim Skirting board to fit base cabinet and also to trim sides so cabs fit perfectly. Thank you.

makes many DIY jobs easy

As someone that does the vast majority of work in house and garden I definitely appreciate good quality tools that make any of those jobs easier and this cordless multi tool certainly falls into that category. I first used the corded version of this tool many years ago and I've never been without one since, the range of jobs it can do and do well makes it an indispensable addition to any keen DIY enthusiast's arsenal, the rapid, short oscillations allow you to cut fairly quickly and easily near enough flush with surfaces that would otherwise be extremely difficult and tedious to do.Over the years I've used versions of this tool to remove old grout in seconds compared to digging it out with hand tools, cut skirting boards and doors flush to floors without removing them, cut out square holes in plasterboard for socket back boxes easily and quickly, sanded into corners which would otherwise be tricky with bigger tools, cut screw heads flush to surfaces prior to finishing and I could go on and on as there are so many different attachments available in an ever growing list of accessories so it's probably best to say once you use one of these tools for the first time you'll wonder how you managed without it!Additional features include the ability to fit a screw in handle (optionally available) either side to assist with stability, a wide range of attachments to allow many different tasks to be carried out, the Starlock fitment system allowing for maximum transfer of power to the attachment and easy placement to the desired angle, the included depth stop to allow easy cutting of depth limited blind cuts into material.This tool is aimed at the midrange user and as such doesn't have some of the more advanced features the higher spec models come with so check your required specifications before buying as there are many different models for all users, it is definitely very useful in many situations and would suit the majority of DIY users.Some commonly asked points to note for this tool:It comes as a bare tool so will NOT have a battery and charger.It only works with the Bosch DIY range of batteries (green) and NOT the Professional range (blue)It will work with the Starlock accessory range but beware it is NOT compatible with Starlock Plus or Starlock Max.

If you already have a range of BOSCH cordless tool then getting this multitool does make sense, it make easy work of cutting around tight corners and spaces. You can change the front tools with the hex key and sanding with the stick on sand paper is quick and effortless.But for £20-30 less you can get a Makita battery compatible multitool which has a faster speed and easier tool loading mechanism than the Starlock screw with a hex key. To load the accessories you will need to use the hex key and undo the nut all the way out and then put the accessory into the slot and replace the net. Not something you want to swap out in the middle of a job.
