Summary: An Alternative
Comment: I became interested in this tool after seeing the popular TV infomercial. Because of the price, I started looking online for similar tools offered by other manufacturers to ensure I was making the wisest choice for my needs.
I eventually stumbled across a "Harbor Freight Tools" sale ad that showed a VERY similar tool with a few accessories for $59.99 on sale for $39.99.
So far, I am quite satisfied with my $39.99 "Harbor Freight Tools" alternative. I'm reasonably certain that the Fein MultiMaster tool is nice, but for the price, I think I made the right choice.

Summary: Fein Multimaster 'Start' - It's ok...
Comment: I'm not excited about having to pay [...] bucks for any tool, but if you have a particular carpentry problem that the tool will solve easily, then you have to consider it. I had a number of crown moulding cuts that I had to do where the product was already installed. I didn't want to cough up the full price for the quick-change model, so I popped for the 'Start'.
It worked perfectly and I will also use this to remove tile and thinset.
So, a guy could make do with a chisel and put up with the gouges created by an errant sawzall or poorly controlled jig saw, held upside down, or, you could buy one of these things. I would prefer that the blades lasted longer, and that the replacement cost was less, but overall I'm ok with it.

Summary: Only 2 Stars because of price
Comment: I was looking for a corded oscillating tool and looked at the Fein Multitasker and blades, but it is just way too expensive to purchase for my needs. So I bought the Dremel and the Rockwell to compare side by side...
The $100 Dremel is lighter and a bit smaller but the buzz the motor makes compared to the Rockwell motor [a little bit heavier and slightly bigger] which humms smoothly is like comparing a Vespa scooter to a Victory street bike.
Since the basic Rockwell is only $20 more than the Dremel and the extra blades are about the same price, there was no question about going for the quality/durability of a Rockwell.
The only convenience problem that I can foresee is getting replacement blades:
Dremel is carried by big box hardware stores; hobbyists who do crafts on the spur of the moment and do not need to rip open walls, will appreciate the around-the-corner convenience.
Rockwell is carried by speciality woodworking stores or the internet; the Home Proj. kind of guys have to plan ahead before ripping into a wall for remodeling. So ordering parts in advance should be a no brainer.
I also really liked the Rockwell case, it is created with niches and screw-downs to hold lots of blades/attachments in place.
I looked at the Bosch 12v battery operated version, and that would have been a good choice but I do not want to have numerous 18v tool systems and chargers for the various power hand tools that I use. I read that the Bosch delivers 20 min of battery power and I might need more time than that between charges.
All four tools mentioned above have variable speeds pretty much the same: 10,000 - 21,000 opm. The Bosch details that I read boasted of 5,000 - 20,000 opm, but I do not know if I need to go that slow. If I did I would have researched more into the rare Praxon version of oscillating tool, which is reportedly underpowered and equivalent to size and weight of the Dremel.

Summary: review
Comment: this is a good tool but i sent it back not knowing at the time that this tool does not have the quick release. so i sent it back and order the other one with the quick release.. it is great when you need to cut something that is in close quarters and the sawsall can't get in. the only draw back i see are the blades are costly and don't last long before they start smoking!!

Summary: Not for construction
Comment: A nice finishing tool but not for construction. If you cut a nail as advertised you will ruin a $15.00 cutting blade. Blades are very expensive and wear quickly.
