Summary: Only 2 Stars because of the price...
Comment: I was looking for a corded oscillating tool and looked at the Fein Multitasker and blades, but it is just way too expensive to purchase for my needs. So I bought the Dremel and the Rockwell to compare side by side...
The $100 Dremel is lighter and a bit smaller but the buzz the motor makes compared to the Rockwell motor [a little bit heavier and slightly bigger] which humms smoothly is like comparing a Vespa scooter to a Victory street bike.
Since the basic Rockwell is only $20 more than the Dremel and the extra blades are about the same price, there was no question about going for the quality/durability of a Rockwell.
The only convenience problem that I can foresee is getting replacement blades:
Dremel is carried by big box hardware stores; hobbyists who do crafts on the spur of the moment and do not need to rip open walls, will appreciate the around-the-corner convenience.
Rockwell is carried by speciality woodworking stores or the internet; the Home Proj. kind of guys have to plan ahead before ripping into a wall for remodeling. So ordering parts in advance should be a no brainer.
I also really liked the Rockwell case, it is created with niches and screw-downs to hold lots of blades/attachments in place.
I looked at the Bosch 12v battery operated version, and that would have been a good choice but I do not want to have numerous 18v tool systems and chargers for the various power hand tools that I use. I read that the Bosch delivers 20 min of battery power and I might need more time than that between charges.
All four tools mentioned above have variable speeds pretty much the same: 10,000 - 21,000 opm. The Bosch details that I read boasted of 5,000 - 20,000 opm, but I do not know if I need to go that slow. If I did I would have researched more into the rare Praxon version of oscillating tool, which is reportedly underpowered and equivalent to size and weight of the Dremel.

Summary: Excellent Tool
Comment: I've owned the Fein Multimaster for about a month now, and use it in conjunction with the Turbo II vacuum. This is a convenient and aggressive tool. I held off purchasing it for several years because of the price but now I see that I could have used it for many purposes during my home remodel and could have used it more effectively than the sawzall for most, if not all, of the tasks for which I needed it. The sanding capacity alone will save you significant time and sweat. When I think back to all the sanding I did to the window frames while standing on a ladder I feel somewhat foolish. The vacuum attachment works quite well and is excellent when sanding. In conjunction with the HEPA filter, I cannot detect any airborne particles and there is no cleanup. Be careful when selecting which model to purchase. The new 'no-tool' feature is very nice and I'm glad I didn't buy the previous version that required a hex tool. Look carefully at the supplied items for each of the 3 levels available. The 'Top' version provides the best value and not all of them come with the case, which is somewhat of a necessity. I've read complaints about the case but it certainly seems adequate to me and I can shove a great amount of sandpaper and attachments into the 2 compartments and 1 miscellaneous storage area. You definitely want ear protection. I know the promo. videos show everyone happily using the Multimaster and even talking to each other while it is running, but at 85db+ you WILL damage your hearing. For those who don't need to act manly and go without protection, my standard is a set of silicone plugs combined with the Bilson Thunder T3 ear muffs.

Summary: best tool for remodeling
Comment: This is the best tool I've found for remodeling anything around the house, it makes doing things like making holes in the wall a snap and for refinishing wood without taking it all apart.. would recommend highly to anyone with a lot of projects or professional carpenter who does remodeling.

Summary: Works pretty well but very expensive
Comment: Seems well-built. I've used the grout saw, the e-blade, the scraper and the segment blade. The e-blade and scraper were a little disappointing. The grout saw and segment blade worked great. I understand the sander works very well, too, but haven't tried that yet... The replacement blades seem a little over priced which is disappointing. I hope the tool pays for itself. Time will tell.

Summary: Expensive but...
Comment: My review will be just like most reviews of the Fein Multimaster. It's very expensive, the attachments are really expensive, but this tool does the job that other tools don't do. The first week I used it a half a dozen times. It really works, I'm glad I got, I wish the accessories were cheaper.
