I think a heavier weight probably helps to reduce the vibration felt by the operator. The lighter a multi tool is the more of the vibration is passed to the operator and so less to the cutting action.

Received it today, and here's my quick review VS the bosch 10.8v Gop Unit I used to have.
Negatives:
It weighs a ton, about 2.1kg with a battery and you can definitely feel it
-the battery has a weird location on it so it's not practical to hold the tool in hands at all times.
I think those are the negatives I can think of,

however the build quality of this seems excellent, built like a tank!
-has a nice light on it
-it's actually less noisier than the 10.8v bosch gop one at least when it's not under load!
-feels more precise , the gop unit was all around, wobling everywhere etc.
-I think it has LESS vibration as well than the bosch one, since some people mentioned as one of its problems.
-cuts MUCH faster than the bosch unit even with a worn blade it actually cuts rather nice, where as in the bosch unit it strugled to even make a mark with the exact same worn blade.

Most of the time I used my old bosch multitool as a delta sander, I think I will have troubles using it for this as its such a heavy brick.
If they could make a brushless, lighter version of this with a better battery layout this would be perfect.
Nice to hear you're happy with it.
