Tools and Hardware Reviews of Dremel 1100-01 Stylus 7.2-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Rotary Tool with Docking Station
Customer Review: Lightweight, but lightweight
Summary: 4 Stars
I like that it doesn't weigh a lot, and it's comfortable to use, but the battery doesn't hold a charge for as long as I'd like, so some of the filing and drilling that I'm doing in jewelry fabrication (20 ga. metals) is taking multiple sessions, while the battery recharges, for a single piece of jewelry.Customer Review: Perfect
Summary: 5 Stars
This product is everything I hoped it would be. I purchased it for jewelry making, specifically for drilling holes in natural shell. It works great, making small, precise holes without shattering or splitting the delicate shells. First time I used it, I worked for literally HOURS before the appliance became hot and eventually turned itself off briefly. However, by then vitually all of my work was finished! I have small hands, yet this appliance was easy to use and manuever. I read other reviews before buying, some good, some not so -- but I would highly recommend this product and confidently stand by my recommendation.Customer Review: Perfect for modelers
Summary: 5 Stars
I build model cars for a hobby, and have always had some type of Dremel tool on hand, but until the Stylus came along, none were just right for me. They were either too big and powerful for the detail work I do, or the battery would not hold a charge long enough. And few would slow down to a speed suitable for plastics. The Stylus, with its long-life battery and variable speeds, is perfect for plastic modeling. The shape is easier to hold, also, and allows more fine control. The handy charging stand is also great, and it automatically shuts off when the battery is fully charged, something I wish my electric razor would do. The unit is quieter than others I have used, and it has a precision feel to it that gives me confidence when working with close tolerances. I've been modeling for 50 years, and finally there is a tool that meets my needs. It was worth the wait.Customer Review: Perfect for the miniature hobbyist!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using my Stylus for about 8 months now, and I can't remember how I got by without it! The compact, cordless design fits in your hand perfectly and is the ideal tool for working with small and delicate materials. I use mine primarily for small-scale modeling (miniature figures, buildings, etc), and work with metal, plastics, and wood. My Stylus handles all the drilling, cutting, grinding, and sanding I used to do by hand; I can now finish projects in a fraction of the time! I'm amazed by the power Dremel has packed into this little tool and the battery life is excellent (I've used it all day without placing it back into its docking/charging stand, but it does usually live there). The Stylus is vastly superior to a standard rotary tool if you need it to fit in small places, work at different angles, or don't want a power cord to get in the way. If you're thinking about picking this up, just do it- you won't be sorry.Customer Review: Possibly the perfect tool
Summary: 5 Stars
I own this tool and bought one for my Dad, too. It is small, easy to hold, and has an incredible battery life. As hard as I might look, I can not find a single negative about this new version of the Dremel.
