Home Improvement Projects Just Got Easier With This Harbor Freight Tool

Whether you're planning a new bathroom, looking to get the most bang for your buck on a kitchen remodel, or refreshing your outdoor space, doing it yourself can save hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars. That will obviously require investing in some materials and equipment, and what you need will usually depend on the task. However, there's one tool that will make a range of home improvement projects easier: the oscillating multi-tool.

Harbor Freight's Warrior 2 Amp Variable-Speed Oscillating Multi-Tool is remarkably affordable at $19.99. Its ability to cut through wood, drywall, plastic, and metal, and to be used for scraping and sanding, makes it one of the tools every homeowner should have. The compact size and comfortable grip make it easy to handle when accuracy is required. The key to its versatility is over 30 different attachments, which are also available from Harbor Freight. Six speeds, up to 20,000 oscillations per minute (OPM), provide the necessary flexibility and control, whether high power or finesse is required.

Given the budget-friendly price, it's no surprise that the Warrior oscillating multi-tool is popular. Well over 1400 buyers give it an average rating of 4.5, and 93% would recommend it. Let's take a closer look at what these people have to say.

The word 'great' comes up a lot in feedback from owners. Great price, great value, great saw. Customers have used the tool for bathroom work, flooring installation, and even motorcycle restoration. Some were surprised by the performance. Comments like "The power, the ease of use were spectacular" and "Extremely powerful" are typical. Others praised the low vibration and the quality of finish that could be achieved. Not everybody loved it, and a few found faults with the blade-tightening mechanism, but even some of the critics admitted it got the job done. 

It's worth noting that none of the blades or accessories that work with the Warrior oscillating multi-tool are included in the price. Individual blades start at around five bucks each, and numerous sets are available, offering savings over buying them separately. Universal fit means any Harbor Freight attachments will work, as will many accessories from other multi-tool manufacturers. The Warrior is one of several Harbor Freight multi-tools that customers love for home projects. While the others are more expensive, if you'd like the convenience of cordless or need even higher specifications, those from Bauer and Hercules are worth considering as well.
