Don't have this particular tool but have other wen products, and while they are not well known, I have no complaints with them. Looks like a solid deal

Corded is the only way to fly with dremel tools. Had a cordless one and did nothing for sheet metal, but the corded on ripped cleanly through it using the same disc.

while this is a fine tool and worth the money
it seems that all the of the different tools also use a different flex shaft

Flex shaft is pretty much worth $15. Nice deal.

Is this flex shaft compatible with dremel? I see the dremel shaft on sale for about $25 at amzn(apparently a big savings off normal, per amzn?) but that's still double price of this whole set.

Looking through Q&A and reviews it appears it is not compatible but wondering if anybody could confirm either way? Thanks!

** EDIT: I'm not necessarily assuming they'd be of similar quality

I bought this year's ago for $30 before I even cared about brand or what not. I just cared that it was $50 cheaper than the equal model dremel.

Its still running strong and I have 0 complaints about it.

Paid $18 for this 2 years ago. Really just bought it for the flex attachment, but the tool actually works pretty well. For the price, no complaints on any part of the kit.

Damn, bought this from Home Depot when it was on sale for $18. So far I've used it to grind off some rust stains from a bathroom counter. It worked well and was easy to use

Me, too. I bought it for $17.84 from Home Depot end of August to give as a Christmas gift.

Wish I would have waited till now to order. But, who would have known...

And, my credit card no longer offers price protection, and I'm past the 90-day return window for Home Depot.

Is this the same company which makes the WEN shampoo?

Got this for Christmas last year. Excellent tool. RPM adjustment is pretty good, gets plenty of speed for most jobs. The flex bit is nice, but I rarely use it.

I do recommend a nice set of attachments. What they provide you with are pretty junky...aside from the polishing ones...those were surprisingly good.

Great deal. Don't hesitate. I consider this a crucial part of my tool arsenal.
