Easily carried in its compact, lightweight bag, the kit can be kept at your fingertips for all your remodeling, installation, and repair projects.Starting with the basics, the 72-piece multipurpose kit comes with a variable speed tool and includes two cutting blades, a carbide grit blade, a finger-sanding pad, 30 finger sanding sheets, a triangular sanding pad, 30 triangular sanding sheets, two polishing pads that help you cut, remove grout, and sand, with professional-grade results.

For the safest and most accurate work, the RK5102K features super high-frequency oscillation technology. This means that instead of rotating, it makes up to 20,000 back-and-forth oscillations per minute for ultra smooth, efficient results.

Great tool but blades do not last November 24, 2009
The tool man (USA)
The tool works great but the blades do not last. I took down 3 plaster walls and put in new wireing and walls. It was a 4 day job and I wore out the end cut blade, the half circle carbide blade, and the half circle cutting blade. All new when I started the job. By the time i payed to replace the blades I did not make much money on that job.
NEEDS BETTER QUALITY BLADES! HEAT TREAT THE CUTTING BLADES!
 Somewhat disappointing November 20, 2009

I just purchased this and have not used it on too many projects yet. I bought the version with the extra attachments. The biggest problem is that the user manual is about 10 pages long and is almost entirely made up of warnings not to misuse the tool and hurt yourself. There are only a few lines on proper use and only a diagram to explain how to attach blades and so on.
So if you plan on buying this you might want to go see a demo or watch the TV ad very closely to see how to use it.
 Rockwell RK5102K Sonicrafter Deluxe 72 piece kit November 14, 2009
G. L. Johnson (Silt, CO USA)
The Sonicrafter seems to work well. At first, like others, I had problems with the blade loosening but after learning to tighten it tight enough I haven't had a problem. I had to tighten the screw tighter than I thought it should have been but that's what it takes for it to work properly. I'm looking forward to this saving me a lot of work in the future & allowing me to do a better job easier than I probably would otherwise.
Awesome tool November 12, 2009
Mark D. Schnittman (Rocky Point, NY USA)
I have needed one of these for quite a while, but never bought one due to the high price of the better units (ie: Fein). I am in the midst of making hand-made wainscot for my son's room, and I needed a powerful detail sander and a tool that could make accurate plunge cuts and do detailed touch-up work. After reading the reviews of the Rockwell, the only con I could see was that the accessories weren't readily available at my local store -- for the price, I figured I could live with that. I used it last weekend for the first time, and let me tell you, this is a tool that no DIYer should be without. Because the heads motion isn't rotary, there is hardly any dust kicked up -- it just drops below where you're working. I was sanding 1/2" MDF without a mask! The tool appears nicely made with a magnesium head casing, the switch had a positive feel, and the speed dial stays where you set it. Changing heads only requires loosening 1 hex head bolt. It has a good weight and balance, and fits well in the hand. I purchased the deluxe 72 piece kit, and I can definitely see myself using this thing quite a bit. I'm starting to feel like I should have bought it a long time ago. Highly recommended, and you can't beat the price.
Harbor Freight has the same tool for less! November 5, 2009

I have the Harbor Freight version. Came with several blades and sanding pads - but it does not have the diamond blade which is a big part of the 180.00 layout for the Rockwell version. Also it is not variable speed. But I've used it for all sorts of material - tile/carpet/wood/metal with no issues and the blades are still sharp. It was like 40.00 on the website - really more useful for the not-using-every-day sort of hobbyist. I tried the Dremel one and really did not like it for the price; maybe the Rockwell is a better build?
