Summary: 5 Stars
Great product. Very easy to use. It comes with everything I need for basic cutting and grinding. The hard case is very sturdy and can hold many bits and some extra tools also. I got some pliers and safety glasses in it with the rotary tool. The extension is very useful to me since I am usually working on small items such as RC cars, airsoft guns, and small electronics.
On the other hand, sometimes the lowest speed does not work, and it just makes a buzzing sound. In addition, low speeds does not have any torque. The slightest touch will stop the head on low speeds. This is sometimes inconvenient for me because there are some sanding I need to perform with delicate materials with low speeds.
Overall, this product is very good. It is everything I need for a rotary tool.
Customer Review: A must have tool

I disagree with the negative reviews. A dremel is not a benchgrinter or an orbital polisher, etc, etc. It IS 3 pounds of power concentrated into a 2 oz bucket. If you use it for what it's meant for, it's great. In the fashion of any MultiTool, like a leatherman, it has multiple funtions in ONE tool. While a dedicated tool might do a better job in certain circumstances, it can only perform ONE funtion.Customer Review: A nice tool but not for the professional
Summary: 2 Stars
I have used Dremel's rotary tools for many years now. The tool itself along with it's separate accesories are easy to find in most any hardware, hobby or home improvement store. Combined with the advertising and (as mentioned) deceiving accesory packages, it is an attractive option to other tools on the market. However, the Dremel is NOT the best rotary tool on the market, by a long shot! I finally got fed up with the finicky speed control and very poor bearing/spindle tolerance and looked for other options. They claim the speed control has been improved so perhaps it is better now but I am not interested in wasting my time with Dremel any longer. I have found Proxxon tools offer a similar price point with German manufacturing standards that far exceed the Dremel. Smooth, quiet, powerful. A maximum of .001" runout on most of their rotary tools. Far better than Dremel. The Dremel flex shaft is another story. I used it once and almost threw it out the window. Not for the precision minded to say the least. IMHO look at Proxxon or Foredom tools if you are serious about rotary tools. If you like to tinker once in a while then maybe the Dremel is for you.Customer Review: Accessories a disappointment
Summary: 2 Stars
While the tool itself is satisfactory, I'm very disappointed in the limited types of accessories that came with it. I had thought that the package would be a bargain with its 77 accessories, and that I'd have what I need for my simple projects, yet I now have to buy several more accessories at great expense to me because most of the accessories are similar sanding items. Also, the included polishing pads are not thick enough to cover the sharp metal point on the end of the attachment piece, so my projects get scratched from the protruding point! I'm very disappointed and discouraged about this tool package.
