Einhell Varrito 18 Volt Power X Change Cordless Oscillating Multi Tool Kit

This tool arrived quickly and is exactly as depicted in the Amazon listing. It's comfortable to handle, doesn't leave your hand tingling after extended use, is easy (and quick) to connect an attachment, and has plenty of power to smoothly and effortlessly cut and sand. The red color of the tool makes it easy to spot on the job site. I generally set my tool down horizontally, so it doesn't bother me that the tool doesn't stand up on the battery for some users (although I did find that mine will indeed stand up but can be easily knocked over, so I set mine down horizontally). Battery life between charges is acceptable and typical for a cordless tool. My other multiuse tools are corded and I now greatly appreciate the portability of a cordless tool, especially when I'm on a ladder or far from a power outlet. Great tool at a good price.

While I think the various sawing and grinding attachments available for these tools speak for themselves, I must admit I'm blown away by the usefulness of the scraping attachments. For the most part, the lowest setting has been the only one I use, the exception being that sawing through some flexible materials required a higher setting to prevent the material from simply vibrating back and forth with the saw. As for this particular tool, it works better than expected and holds a charge for a long time. The only complaint I have is that the LED indicators on the battery I have are apparently defective, showing various combinations of on, off, and levels of brightness depending on the state of charge.

This is my first such tool and I wish I'd bought this years ago. Just finished using it to scrape off old vinyl flooring from my bathroom. Including the glue. Saved the job, otherwise it wasn't going to get done. Doing it by hand was an impossible task. Using various methods I saw on youtube were unappealing to me. Nobody suggested using a multitool. It might not work on a wood subfloor, but for concrete it was perfect. One charge on the battery has lasted over 5 months now; incredible. I've used the other fittings to cut screws and things. I like using it! I highly recommend it.

All was good

Excelente calidad, muy buena, confiable y potente. La probé como cortando metal, pvc y madera. El cargador es 110 así que antes de de volver voy a tener que lamentablemente tirarlo por que no me sirve

Purchased to trim my door frames after installing a new floor. It worked perfect. Was very satisfied with the way it termed out the door frames. Would highly recommend.

This is one of those tools that you didn't know you'd use all the time until you have one. I had a cheap corded one from H.F. and that made me want to get a better one that was cordless. This one definitely fits the bill. I've used it for cutting wood, acoustic ceiling tiles, scoring brick, sanding, cutting aluminum, and a variety of other materials. It has plenty of power and battery life with the included kit battery. It's easy to adjust the oscillation speed. I like that they include a variety of attachments - sanding pad with a variety of paper grits, metal blade, wood blade, round wood blade, and round diamond blade. Basically, you're getting a good sampling of all the different blades. They aren't cheap as individual purchases, so that's a nice touch. I've used all of them, and can't complain about any of them. The quick release is much nicer than having to use a chuck key or spanner. To that point, if you buy blades, you can use ones meant for a quick release, but Einhell also includes a washer type thing that lets you use non-quick-release blades as well. I really like the battery system - the charger works well and the LEDs give good status updates. The charger also has some wire management on its backside to support different usage layouts, and it has keyholes in it (and dimensions supplied) so that you can securely wall mount it. The battery also has a button that shows the status in a 3-bar capacity indicator. As for things that would be good improvements...The quick release is a bit hard to unlatch at the very end of its swing. Not a huge deal, but when it snaps back, it catches you a bit off-guard and I've pinched my hands a couple times, since you're trying to hold the blade on while rotating the latch. It would be nice if the quick-release were magnetic to hold the blade, thus leaving you both hands to hold the tool and latch. The other improvement, and I've found this across several Einhell tools, is that they could improve sliding buttons and switches. They are just kind of sloppy and don't have firm engagement points. This sometimes causes you to slightly miss that critical point where the tool turns off or on. Since there's no saftey lock on this tool, I actually once turned it on by accident with a slight mis-tap to the power switch. I would like it to have a more firm click at a clearly defined point between off and on. Currently, that point is a bit sloppy. Otherwise, the ergonomics and material quality is very good. I'd say it sits somewhere between something like a Black & Decker and a Dewalt. Basically, it's better than the cheap stuff, but not necessarily job-site or contractor grade. The plastic is good quality, and the grips are good. Everything feels heavy and well made...except for the power switch and to some degree the quick-release lever. But for me, just a normal house-owner that uses this for weekend projects, it's a great choice that's affordable yet sturdy and powerful. Given that Einhell tools are distributed in the USA by SunJoe/SnowJoe, I think this fits well with their other products - a bit of a step up above the cheaper stuff you find, but more affordable than professional level tools.

Pros: More durable than some of the oscillating tools on Amazon. Screws haven’t fallen off yet. Great value so far after 1 month of use. Cons: The plasticky part of the battery that attaches to tool is stripping off. I suspect I will have to reach out to manufacturer for replacement parts soon.

Excelente herramienta. Muy versátil; he hecho cortes en lugares incómodos y me ha sacado de apuros. Y con los accesorios que incluye el kit es una herramienta que no me arrepiento de haber comprado y agregado a mis herramientas personales.
