Its exactly the same as every other rotary tool
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. I've owned several dremels which have burned out on my during wood working (my own fault, im usually working outside in texas and they get too hot). I replaced my last one with this one. I have alot of dremel accessories and bits, they're all interchangeable with this one. I like that my already owned parts work with it, its speed and power seem comparable to the mid range dremels. So far I've only used this one for a sanding and shaping but it has handled those tasks well. I think its a good bargain since its cheaper than the dremel and it has the pen style attachment for it. The cheaper dremels don't come with that. It generates comparable noise to the dremel as well and is even shaped very similar to one. The carrying case is a little flimsy and I dont find that its all that easy to fit everything in exactly how it came, especially the cord unless your rolling it up and twist tying it, doesnt fit super well.pros:1. you can use your dremel bits, sanders, etc2. its cheaper than buying name brand3. seems to have comparable power and speed4. I've got an hour or two of sanding done with it and haven't noticed any issues worth noting on the function of the tool itself.cons:1. I'm not in love with the case. it will do its job but its deff on the cheaper end, better to move your rotary tool into a toolbox with all the various accessories than use this case.2. I have found that the bits it comes with are a little on the cheaper side, the sander heads dont hold the sanding paper all that securely but given this is a starter kit and the vast majority of people buying it probably have or will have bought kits for it, its a small take away. I didnt deduct a star because I think we're all mainly after the quality of the tool itself.

I made a doll house furnitures using this
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. I made a doll house furniture using this. It is really powerful tool. I used real wood for making doll house furniture but still even though the round cutting blades were out of paper those cut the wood into pieces. Probably because of the power and speed of rotation. I wish they had at least one round cutting blade for long term use. Because paper blades reduce in size after you cut a big chunk of wood. Polishing works good as well. I was not able to use the external wire thing yet. I need to watch YouTube video on how to use that.

Flexible driver did not work as it was not properly built & hand unit ran very hot
The flexible driver was never properly connected. There is a metal rod that runs through the driver and it was never attached to the end unit so it cannot spin. The other issue with this item was that it ran very hot. After 3 minutes of use the unit became almost too hot to hold. Based upon those two issues I believe that this item was not properly built - this can happen in an assembly line production and it may have only been this unit that has these types of issues.Not for the new user - If you are new to using a rotary the instructions will be difficult to understand and there is nothing telling you what the bits are and their uses.I purchased this to use for stained glass & etching. Aside from the unit issues this was easy to set up but difficult to hold as it is a bulky unit - the flexible driver would have come in handy had it worked.

Paid for itself in the first hour of use. A beast.
Paid for itself in the first hour of use. I used this for sanding off rust from industrial garbage so I can list that rusty gold on eBay. I had a ton of rusty crap I was going to throw away due to extensive rust/neglect. I bought this tool hoping it would make removing rust easier. It not only makes removing rust easy, it's actually fun to use!Don't mess around with the aftermarket dremel accessories, buy the dremel brand; they last a lot longer. If you're a picker like me, this tool will pay for itself in its first use guaranteed!

Great power and very useful!
I use my rotary tool for mostly light sanding. I've broken both wrists in the last 2 months and there's no way that i could use the tool without the flex shaft tool. It's really made it possible for me to continue with my hobby. I couldn't be happier with the way it performs. The power is very good. I love the different speeds and it does everything I need it to. The only problem I've had is the hook for the hanger fell off and is lost. Now l can't use it until my wrist heals more or l get a replacement hanger. I would recommend this tool to anyone looking to buy, men or women.

Love this thing...
I have done so many things with this tool and I really don't know what I ever did without it. I actually prefer it to the other big dog, dust scattering what-ever that I have on stand by...All the tips I've used are still holding up well. I am not easy on my tools, and for the price of this, don't have to be. It's really a good deal and the performance of it is right up there with the big boys!.

Solid tool and the WEN attachment truly is a bonus
The product arrived faster then expected. Having dremel products I can say this is a good deal. The ext adapter tip is actually metal. It was hard to see via pictures. Having the WEN universal tip was what swayed me on the purchase. Other rotary sets offer 200+ attachments but you can buy better for $8-10. The WEN attachment and wired extender make it a deal in itself.Buy it and see for yourself. If you don't think it is a real deal, return it.

Great little tool with a great flex head and lots of cool attachements
Works great, has the chuck bit holder and flex head included which makes it a great buy. I would normally have to get those extra but this had them in the kit. In a world with lots of competition this one wins for me.
