Just picked one up this morning. I'm impressed with how much quieter it is even at full speed than my Dewalt multi-tool. Hope to put it to the test this weekend and see how it performs.

I'm for one to add to my Ridgid tool collection. Ego for the large tools, Ridgid for the smaller things.

Any way of knowing how long the sale lasts?



Have an older Worx. Used it only a few times but it did make things a lot easier and faster. Getting behind rotten fascia boards to cut off nails. Removing rotted bottom sections of door frame and trim. This is tempting as an upgrade and to go with my other Ridgid tools.

Resistance is futile.
Also, you do know you have to register your R's to get lifetime warranty, right?

This makes fast clean cuts in a variety of soft materials. Soft woods, PVC pipe, drywall, the list goes on. There are attachments to sand, cut, scrape, and more. I used mine recently to cut out old caulk from around my windows

Perfect! I misplace mine 2 years ago. I know that a week after this one arrives, I will find the lost one.

They are safer, unlike rotating blades, these will not easily cut skin. The blade position allows for flush cuts in all orientation.

Just ordered one. Anyone else have problems registering this tool? I returned one recently because the website didn't recognize the model number. Now it's $20 cheaper, so it's worth trying again.
