I like the corded model, I will never have to worry about a battery going dead or needing replacement. There is plenty of room in the carrying case for everything included plus all of my own old tool bits. I think the price is fair for what I received. I bought this tool to replace a dremel which I have owned for 25 years. I find this one superior to my original, I think the quality is good and the flexible shaft and accessories provided will cover all of my needs.
This is sometimes inconvenient for me because there are some sanding I need to perform with delicate materials with low speeds. The hard case is very sturdy and can hold many bits and some extra tools also. In addition, low speeds does not have any torque. The extension is very useful to me since I am usually working on small items such as RC cars, airsoft guns, and small electronics.
Great product. Overall, this product is very good. The slightest touch will stop the head on low speeds. Very easy to use.
On the other hand, sometimes the lowest speed does not work, and it just makes a buzzing sound. It is everything I need for a rotary tool. It comes with everything I need for basic cutting and grinding. I got some pliers and safety glasses in it with the rotary tool.
What a workhorse. You can't go wrong at all by buying this product. I am more than satisfied with my purchase. We all know that they don't make things like they used to, but Dremelis truely the exception to that rule. I've been using Dremel products for many years as a hobbiest and Dremel never fails to disappoint.
Have used the tool several times so far and am very pleased with it. The "accessory package" wasn't as complete as I expected but the included flex-shaft is great.
she has never let me touch them before and she tolerated it very well. I used it for some projects on my boat and used it to grind my dogs nails down.
Delivery was timely. But so far, I like it a lot.
I'm a happy camper. Packaging was great.
but I haven't pushed it very hard or had a lot of hours on it.
For these reasons, I only rated it a 4. So I overshoot and it runs too fast, and then I have to back it off. I know Dremel does commercials showing people cutting off nails and fixing up things around the house, and these tools can certainly do that, but don't expect them to hold up like a contractor-grade power drill if you use them that way. But the assortment of cutters, grinders, and sanders that it comes with are very useful, not just cheap "fluff" to fill up the box. The speed control slider is also a little clumsy. I have one of these kits and a much older Dremel that must be going on 20 years old now.
This new one has much betterspeed control and much better power at low speed than my old one did.People should realize that these things really are hobby tools. But this really is a minor point, and it happens less and less as I get used to it. I use them for model train work. When I want it on a low speed, I often push it past where I want it because it's a bit too hard to push. They are a good breadth of Dremel's attachment pieces.The flexible shaft is a nice touch.Overall, for $75, a heck of a handy, nice tool to have around. These are really handy, light-weight, flexible, versatile tools.
It's not built for that.Where these really excel is for hobby work - model trains, jewelry-making, all sorts of crafts, doll houses, model making, that sort of thing.The carry case on this model has compartments, but they are kind of clumsy for holding all the attachments.
