This does not require an Allen to change blades. There is a lever on top and a fastener on the bottom that can sometimes be loosened by hand, but usually I use the back end of the new blade into the slotted area to change blades. Sounds like more work than it actually takes. Literally 15 seconds to change with no tools.

That being said, I use this for work more often than I thought and wish I had gotten the FUEL version like I typically do. For homeowner use this would do the job just fine.

Diable Carbide blades are the only good blade on the market IMO.

The fuel version is brushless and much more powerful. This one requires an Allen wrench to change the blade while the fuel version can be changed with bare hand. And the fuel version has a longer life expectancy.

How is this multi tool vs the FUEL one for Homeowners? Looking to frame a basement and might just pick this one up instead of the FUEL if it's good.

I agree on the blades, I picked up some to cut the lower half of my metal door frames and they perform the best, the Milwaukee blades are meh.

M12 fuel is better.

How does this compare to 12v Skil brushless on sale for $59 at Loves and Walmart? Skill 12V brushless($59) vs Milwaukee 12V brushed($99)?

It's not always about how one tool directly compares to another. Whatever the case, this will get the job done, and $99 is a pretty nice entry price into the M18 lineup - especially with this 3.0 HO battery. Hard to say the same for that Skil & some of the other competing tools.

I have the M12 non-fuel version that does require a hex key to change blades - and I'll probably sell it to recoup some of the cost of this setup. $99 for the 3 AH HO battery + M12/M18 charger is almost a deal on its own.

1lb lighter and 2000 open more. But you can potentially get this tool for something like $30 if you sell off the battery and charger. M12 is better but the price difference between both reflects that

Milwaukee is amazing at ONLY offering drill and impact driver at sale prices

After that you're trapped

You either buy very expensive non discounted tools for life there on.

Or you sell Milwaukee starter kit to move to a cheaper brand ecosystem

the non-fuel is junk. Litterally no reason to get it.

If you're investing in the m18/m12 lineup just get the fuel versions, if you aren't just go for something cheap like ryobi.
