Great bit of kit, Had a mains powered one before, this is just as good at cutting but now I don't have to trail a cable behind me every time I use it. Update: this failed in 2020 after roughly once/twice weekly use/abuse. Have now replaced with the 51z which seems much more solid with a more satisfying motor noise.

This review is not just for the Makita multi tool but first and foremost for Powertoolmate. I find them to be the cheapest online and their service, communication and delivery speed is excellent. I have many 18v cordless Makita tools and they never disappoint. Long lasting, tough, sturdy, ergonomic with the obvious benefit of sharing the same high quality Makita batteries. I recommend the multitool, its quite chunky to hold but handles all the jobs I throw at it and it invaluable for the things I use it for most, namely chasing channels in plasterboard when fitting kitchens and undercutting architrave when fitting laminate flooring. Powertoolmate is now my go to place for cordless Makita tools without wasting valuable timing googling the cheapest supplier. Nice job

Great tool, as expected from Makita. My only niggle with it is the cutting blade retaining nut. It has a bearing on the outside which means you can't tighten it up by hand before nipping it up with the Allen key. Maybe go for the quick release model instead if you can afford it. Overall a great, handy tool though

So useful, for fine and precise cutting in wood, plastic, metal. Great for nest cuts on flooring where a skill saw will cause too much damage and a conventional saw can't get the angle. Once you have it you'll realise how useful it really is
