I have the 18v oscillating tool. Do your research on the "starlock" format however so you are not surprised when old format does not work.
damn good find OP!
Wished I wasn't broke....

This is a great price for both. While the Bosch 12V line isn't as extensive as the Milwaukee M12 line, for most homeowner tasks it's perfect.
Bosch also has some excellent woodworking tools in this 12V line (planer, router, sander).
Now brushless, so battery life is likely a bit better.
RE: starlock. Mine is the previous one with hex nut. ( ditto for the bigger corded version ) Not an issue if you buy Bosch blades, which I highly recommend. Sure they cost a bit, but sales happen, and you really want a sharp blade, and I like the curve tech edge from Bosch. Note I only cut wood for the most part. I have some blades that can do metal etc, but I prefer the much cheaper reciprocating saw blades or my little hack saw, vs $$ blades to cut nails or screws if i can. The standard blades and multipacks from the various big box stores, internet and harbor fr ... are like one time use, disposable blades. Just stamped steel painted black. With a bit of care - aka let the tool do the work, don't over heat, avoid nails - the blades last way better than the overpriced standard stuff. And I will keep a slight to half dull blade around to do some less important cuts or ones I suspect there will be hidden nails.
And to me, the interface seems superior. Easy to swap. Very strong. Lots of contact area. I was using my wife's ryobi yesterday and it only has the small four pointed cross as interface, which had some play in it and it rattled the blade loose ... Had to really crank the screw down, and I can't see the interface cross last.
Anyway. My 12v bosch are my primary tools for small diy, very confimed spaces, lighter duty work and tasks that don't require the big guns. Construction and demolition happens with my ridgid 18v.
