There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I've read other reviews that complained about the device over-heating. I've never had that problem and I've done LOTS of cutting with this tool. I've found that if I'm not careful, I'll cover the ventilation holes with my gloved hand(s). This will cause the tool to warm up. For me, keeping the vents holes open (as I'm sure it was designed) prevents over-heating.
Bottom line: If you're looking for a multi-tool that's fun to use and will last a long time then get this one.
If you ever need to cut into a wall to insert an electrical box... you need this tool.
I should probably give it a 4 1/2 if it was available, because there are a couple minor issues - but not enough to drop it from a 5. First, the tool gets pretty hot after just a minute or two. I have a tendency to "choke up" a bit on the tool by placing one hand fairly near the "business end". This gives me precise and fine control, but unfortunately, this is where the source of the heat is, and it becomes too hot to hold there after use.
You have to hold the unit further back, which does not give you as much control. If the tool could have been designed to allow this, it would have been perfect.
The other issue is the blades. Some of the competitors have teeth on the side, where these are only on the front tip. While you can move the blade to the side, this is not often the solution as it changes the blade orientation. There is an adapter so 3rd party blades can be used that I have not tried so that might be a solution. Otherwise, should Porter Cable make a "side cutting" blade, it would enhance the tool's usefulness.
But again, these things I consider minor, and I did not want to give it 4 stars as otherwise it is a great tool.
