Customer Review

I have often been annoyed when Yourself that the "large" device did not come in all the corners or too large were for the intended use. When Abflexen pipes in cramped environments, etc at the grinding or polishing of edges when milling small slots .. The Dremel filled this gap in the domestic tool Park.

The Dremel earned as a multifunctional tool handle this name. This is already visible when you open the case on the basis of the comprehensive range of accessories. Through optional features, you can still significantly expand, but other accessories also eats a lot of costs. Also must also be said that it is by no means is the Dremel to a tool that can be used in completely replace all other equipment in the household, for large-scale works, a realization not intended, so it complements rather the DIY equipment.

Shipping and handling:
Light and shadow. The accessories of the equipment is extensive for an initial, and a suitcase included, however, in my view, not keep up with the better home improvement brands both the case and the housing quality. Unlike my Makita or Bosch appliances, the plastic does not look as high-quality and has tangible seams. This spoils the first impression a bit. Apart from gray plastic while the Dremel black surface portions were provided with a rubberized surface, which in turn greatly increases the grip of the device.
The dimensions are compact pleasing to the device with the application and the performance. In particular, the pin-like design make the Dremel also be used in narrow application scenarios.
The situation is different in weight, which struck me as borderline high. If you want to filigree work with the Dremel perform this is high by combining weight any easier, even if the Dremel an essay for supporting the device is attached. However, the weight provides a degree of robustness.
Is a good solution that most smaller accessories is supplied in a storage box, which can be stowed in the trunk. Other accessories such as protective covers, however, intent fly freely in the luggage around, for this I have seen better solutions.

Handling & operation:
This can be described as good, with the restrictions referred to in terms of size and Gewicht.Gut is the keyless chuck, which accessories only, however, as noted in other reviews used with shaft 3.2mm, otherwise the collet against optional must be replaced ,
The speed of the device can be adjusted via a dial 5000-33000 U / min, so that in terms of speed a really wide range of applications is covered. Therefore, I have also tried in the past week wherever possible to use the device to see how it impacts the individual application areas. It has struck me that the device regardless of the attachment runs quite strong vibration. This is not only annoying, but the vibrations are in the speed range 15000 U / min to 20,000 rev / min so strong that working longer will be uncomfortable in this area and then hand tingles. Even the 7 Kg Flex generated when cutting less vibration. This is a shortcoming, which I did not expect in such a device, especially since it complicates filigree work. If you move outside the range-mentioned vibrations are less and the work is tolerable, yet there is this one star deduction.
On the plus side is the power in the device. The engine is strong and neither during grinding, milling or flexing there were problems in terms of performance. All requirements up to the cutting of metal tubes mastered the device easily. There is nothing to complain about.
The various essays are functional and their changes then succeed keyless chuck absolutely fast and uncomplicated, but you will still miss one or the other accessories and because you will soon discover that it is not cheap a) and b) partially the quality standards of the brand "Dremel" not do justice to seem (to me would have certainly brought the workstation, however, are the very mixed reviews).
Nevertheless, the device to handle reflected well what the following Pro / Cons leads me list:

+ Versatile
+ Extensive initial supply
+ Keyless chuck
+ Power
+ Extensible
+ Compactness

o Processing
o suitcase
o Weight

- Vibrations
- Tools / Accessories partly quite expensive

Conclusion:
Good power-packed application. The initial is good, but you will still have to buy accessories in order to obtain the "eggs Wollmilchsau" and the accessory is partially not so favorable. The compact dimensions coupled with sufficient power to make it a beautiful addition to the machinery. Unfortunately, there are a few minor gripe as the not quite as high quality considering the price that is not well thought out case design and last but not the least the vibrations. I've never had a tool with a vibration so strong run in the hands and the speed range 15000-20000 U / min is really nasty.
Had the vibrations do not, I would have awarded 4 stars, so it is good 3, the versatility of the device goodness.
