Nice tool for remodeling July 6, 2009 D. Patelzick (West Linn, OR United States) 37 out of 37 found this review helpful
I have watched the advertisement on television for the Fein Multimaster but not having deep pockets I decided to purchase the Multi-Max and try it out. I have used it for a number of different jobs and for the most part it did a good job. Here are some of the tasks that it took on.
Cutting holes in drywall: It works great for cutting holes for electrical boxes - the straight blades leave a nice clean hole without a lot of dust. For those times when you need to get access to plumbing to make changes or to repair a pipe it works nicely. In one case I removed the drywall, made the necessary changes then I was able to reuse the drywall to close up the hole.
Making a flush cut in wood siding: I installed new sliding glass doors that opened on a deck. It worked perfectly to cut the siding at the deck plate so I could get the old door out while leaving a clean cut for the new trim.
Removing underlayment (flooring) next to cabinets: The old underlayment was not reusable and I did not want to remove the cabinets so I made a cut in the the underlayment at the cabinets then removed the majority of the underlayment.
Cutting plumbing tubes and pipes: It did a good job on copper pipe buried in the wall and it did ok on plastic drain pipe. It would cut the plastic but it would melt if you didn't move fast enough.
I probably used this tool for 16 hours total over two months and it worked fine. I didn't have problems with the blades coming loose and it never got hot enough to stop because of overheating. The only blade I didn't use very much was the half circle - with drywall it seems to throw a lot of dust.
Could I have done this work with other tools? Almost certainly but it would have taken longer or there would have been a lot more extra work to repair the damage from other tools. The last job I did with it was to add an electrical box inside a cabinet above a stove. I had to cut through 1/4" of plywood and 1/2" of drywall. It was really tight and this little tool allowed me to get inside a make a clean cut that was a perfect fit for the box.
I plan on getting a grout blade next for replacing the grout lines in a tile surface. If I did a lot of remodeling I would purchase the Fein but even so this tooled payed for itself on this one remodeling project.
Great Tool - Problems Solved February 4, 2009 J. F. Richards 19 out of 19 found this review helpful
Dremel 6300-01 1.5 Amp Multi-Max Oscillating Kit
This is a great tool, and no, I don't work for Dremel. The problem with the screw has been solved by using a beveled washer on the allen screw that holds the accessory on the tool. This is the same method used to hold the harmonic balancer on the crankshaft on a car engine.
The storage case is pretty good with good hinges and above average locks. The only issue I have with the case is I wish the case contained a storage area for the accessories.
This tool works great. I am sure my friends will be borrowing it.
Fantastic addition to the DIY Toolchest February 12, 2009 Anthony Shoemaker (Pittsburgh, PA) 19 out of 19 found this review helpful
I think many of us have come to this product due to the commercials on TV for the Fein Multi-Master- a similar tool that sells for hundreds more. Frankly the quality feel of this product coupled with its performance has me convinced that Dremel belted one out of the park on their Multi-Max.
I have already put this thing to the test by using it to cut very precice holes in our plaster walls for the purpose of installing new power outlets. We have very old heavy plaster walls that use a "scratch coat" material which approaches the density of concrete. While there is no real masonry blade for this unit, the Grout Removal blade performed very well, but I admittedly wore out one half of the edge of its blade already on that rough dense plaster. The grout blade works on fine plaster as though it is not even there. And the wood blade cut through the lath like butter.
What was such a success was the control and precision that I had with the cut- there was nearly no damage to the wall outside of where I was cutting, and the hole itself had nice square edges. This, in comparison to drilling into the wall with a masonry bit, then with a wood bit, at each corner of my planned cut, then using either a jigsaw or a reciprocating saw to do the cutting; this old process does nothing but damage your walls and create really rough cuts that need a lot of repair afterwards.
Not to forget the dust control. With the old reciprocating saw method, dust gets thrown everywhere due to the violent nature of the cutting blade. With the Dremel Multi-Max, the dust simply falls straight down. (to be sure, very fine dust does go into the air, so wear a mask) For the most part the dust is controlled to a very close perimeter, and will not be all over the room.
This tool is going to revolutionize the repair and renovation work that I do on my house. Its not very loud, its compact, solid and high quality. The blade change is simple and robust. My two criticisms 1) that it does get hot during prolonged use, and 2) when cutting into deep plaster (which is was not really intended for) it takes a bit of time to get the cut done. BUT! The quick cuts that I will now be able to make, with the level of control that I never had before will be well worth this tool even at twice the price.
Note also that these things sold out at our local big box stores prior to Christmas, and they haven't received a re-order yet. Buy it now while its available!!!!
How did I ever get along without this tool! May 14, 2009 Don Riead 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
I bought my first one six months ago to use in my remodeling business. At first I thought it would be good for trim work. Well, it is great for trim work. But it really, really excels at window repair work. Regardless if you are repairing rotten frames, sashes or sills, this is a must have tool. I know that Fein has had this tool for years. My hardwood floor man has one and I always thought it would be handy, but $300+ was a little steep for me at the time. What I like about the Dremel and the cordless Bosch over the Rockwell and Fein is the accessory mount. I like not having to remove the screw to change blades, especially when I'm 20+ feel up on a ladder. I can't help but think the cordless version would really be handy for window work. Being able to get new blades at Home Depot and Lowe's is the icing on the cake. Now I have 3 multi-max tools working nearly every day. Buy one, you will love it!
Great tool for the money... March 31, 2009 Chris Keever (Seattle) 20 out of 21 found this review helpful
I've been a finish carpenter for 25+ years, and I've owned my own remodeling company for over 15 of those years. I'd used other's Fein tools on almost a daily basis but the price always upset me. I finally bought the Dremel Multi tool and I can honestly say that it does everything the Fein does for a whole lot cheaper. It does sound a bit different, the motor whines at a higher pitch. The blades are harder to come by but they are much cheaper. I make my own blades out of Japanese pull saws, they aren't offset, but they work just as well for a fraction of the price.
In my opinion.....Save your money and buy the Dremel.......
