  Stay away from this machine... In the first year with moderate, sparse use it started to malfunction... I used to own a similar product (from a multinational company) that we usually make fun of... It lasted 3 years of heavy use... And the machine

  Absolutely satisfied. I had to buy it when my old Demel-3000 was stolen, which I had for many years. Its case is also nice and very convenient.

  UPDATE (5/3/2024): Making occasional use (some weekends), it suddenly stopped working when I was drilling plastic water bottles! Obviously, no (quality) comparison to the older Dremel models. I have sent it to the service center for repair/replacement since it is still under warranty, and I am waiting for updates...

  Not a quality construction, unacceptable for the name. With very minimal and simple use, it quickly developed a problem.

  It definitely does not live up to its price, the extension for delicate work broke its wire, while the chuck that you press to change the front tool broke within a year, just like the wire. I am not a professional, it is used for amateur use in small constructions and repairs.

  I am giving 1 star because it is not possible to extend the manufacturer's warranty by 1 year in our country

  My old Dremel 3000 suddenly stopped working while I was using it. I couldn't fix it (probably an electronic issue) so I bought the exact same model. I chose the basic package since I already had all the other accessories (case, attachments, etc.) from the previous one. The price was very interesting and it works great.

  2 broken so far. One due to a burnt wire of the motor winding. The first one lasted 5 years, the second one lasted 3. Casual use. The cost of repair is almost half the price of a new one. Never again Dremel. There are plenty of similar ones for almost half the price.

  I bought it thinking that it is a brand tool and I ended up concluding that it is unacceptable for such a tool to be on the market, especially at its price... With very minimal use, it caused a problem with the head's stop switch, resulting in me not being able to loosen it. After half a year, I sent it back and they fixed it for me because I still had a warranty. Then, after minimal use again, it experienced the exact same issue and I decided to simply throw it away.

  This review is about a variation of the product

  I have the 1/25 version of the Dremel 3000. I see complaints and negative reviews, personally I have had it for almost a decade and haven't experienced any issues. Besides its top quality, it also performs exceptionally well.
  If you push it to its limits, whatever you use it for will get overheated. Make sure not to cover the air vents and let it cool down, as it has incredible power for its size, so it's logical for it to heat up.
  I professionally make (repair and maintain) knives, I make worry beads from semi-precious stones like Amber, Faturan, etc. I make jewelry and a bunch of wooden crafts, such as furniture and accessories. I also repair axes, since nowadays, due to the loss of knowledge about axes with the chainsaws, everything is made with thick handles and a thick geometry on the edge of the head. The work that the Dremel has done just to eat away at the steel of the axes is enough to say that it has paid for itself! Look at how many other things it can work on, I've had it for almost a decade.
  Expensive (good) tools, whether it's a knife or an axe, or pliers, always have stronger and harder steel. I have cut such steel multiple times with Dremel cutting discs without any issues. In fact, considering its size, it works incredibly well. I mention this because I read in a comment below that it doesn't cut "iron" well... Here I am cutting hard steel, what are we saying now?! Every tool is only as good as the user's experience with it.
  If you get this specific one, I recommend the 1/25 version. I believe that it's not as flawed as it seems in the comments. Maybe they don't have experience with such tools, because this company is supposed to produce the best ones, or maybe I have been so lucky that nothing has happened to mine. Thanks to its quality, all multitools of this kind from any "Dremel" company, even if it's an unknown Chinese company, are automatically referred to as Dremel by people. Usually, everything is called Dremel. Of course, there is also the possibility that the quality has drastically declined, like everything nowadays. So, it would be good to buy from small, local shops. There, on dusty shelves, in these small shops, you will find forgotten tools from old stock, which will be far superior in quality!

  Very low quality. The company's accessories are very good, but the tool is not reliable at all. It heats up quickly and does not maintain a steady speed. The same problem was present in the larger model. Something is definitely not right.

  I bought it because it was a brand, but as it turned out, it's far from good... It hasn't worked almost at all and it broke... at a point where it's relatively easy to fix it, but why bother going through that process... The stator is broken. It has four little legs that connect the winding wires and they break there... I believe it's because the wires are thin and they heat up and get cut...

  Simply unacceptable. Bought it years ago and it has worked very little. The cables on the rotor were cut

  The switch stopped working without any apparent reason. I only used it for amateur purposes and very rarely. It was like new, however, after searching online, I found out that this model often presents this defect. The worst part is that it cannot be repaired. It's a shame because otherwise, it is of good quality.

  After many years and minimal use, it stopped working. I didn't understand why it happened. I even opened it to see inside and everything looked fine visually. I have several tools and I use them heavily as a hobbyist. But I had treated this one with great care. And it let me down.

  After 1 use, it stopped working.
  I replaced it within 1 week with the warranty and the second one stopped working after 2-3 uses.
  Tragic, since they are defective, why don't they stop production?
  Stay away...

  After simple amateur use, it simply broke. The speed control switch has malfunction. Some friends have something similar and they endure, but I paid for it and it simply stopped working. It won't go forward again... I will buy again, but probably something simple that can be thrown away if it breaks. Don't listen to the brand and stupid stuff, it's just junk... I am disappointed with my purchase... I have had it for a year and a half with simple amateur use and it just stopped.

  I have it for about 1 year+, I use it occasionally, I can say that it withstands hardships because I have worked with it continuously for several hours. It definitely doesn't work for irons, etc., because it doesn't have that much power, but for simple use with aluminum (thin), wood, etc., it's fine.

  So far, I have had it for 2 months and it is very good for the work I do. Fast, easy application of the heads as well as their removal. Now, if someone wants something more serious in terms of other stronger jobs, it's not that it won't do its job, but I would prefer something higher and even better. However, it is good for small tasks, etc.

  Very bad today the processing ... I have it for 2 years and without much work, only for simple needs. Today it burned the rotor, cut a wire, constantly buzzed and I read on the internet all the problems with switches and others. .. add to that it died as well.

  Το έχω 2 μήνες και είμαι πολύ ευχαριστημένος. Είναι όντως ένα δυνατό πολυεργαλείο, κατάλληλο για ερασιτέχνες και μικροδουλειές, που σου "λύνει" τα χέρια. Πολύ καλή ποιότητα κατασκευής και το EZ SpeedClic, για γρήγορη αλλαγή εξαρτημάτων είναι κορυφαίο. Στα αρνητικά του, για εμένα, είναι ο διακόπτης λειτουργίας, που είναι ο ίδιος και για τη ρύθμιση στροφών (θα ήθελα ξεχωριστό on/off διακόπτη), που πιστεύω ότι στο μέλλον θα μου δημιουργήσει πρόβλημα, ο υψηλός θόρυβος κατά την λειτουργία του και τα ακριβά εξαρτήματά του (παίρνει μόνο δικά του εξαρτήματα). Αυτοί είναι οι τρεις λόγοι που βαθμολογώ με 4 αστέρια.

  The machine, although very good in all its uses, after 1 year of amateur work, (total of about 2 hours of use per month) started to malfunction the switch. At first, where it was working, the speed changed without me changing it. Later, it stopped opening from the switch so it never worked again.

  This review is about a variation of the product

  I use it for professional use and it is excellent. I would like a slightly quieter motor. The flexible attachment is very helpful. I would prefer it to have a hanger so that I don't have to use clamps. The chuck is necessary to attach whatever you want and not need the expensive Dremel attachments.

  *24/8/2017 After ten months, the speed switch is not responsive and works with all the speeds it can offer. It is covered by the warranty.

  The extension cable only makes sense if you have a workbench, otherwise it's not that useful. The user instructions are not very beginner-friendly. However, in terms of what I tested it for (mainly sanding), it is quite powerful.
