Usual price is $38

It's a good deal however never close to $38. It was $23 most of the last 4 years with drops to $13 in 2017 and the current price $16. Chart attached.

Edit: downvoting objective price data on a deal forum is like saying it's better to list MSRP as the original price on a sale flyer..

Thanks. I was just going by the price Amazon had lined out. Still a drop from $23 to $16 seems like an OK deal

Agree - this is only the second time it's been discounted like this in over four years on Amazon

I picked one up last week. Almost bought it for around $18 at Walmart (now $18.85: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Dremel...t/19303878) - Home Depot was in the $20s (now $19.02: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Dreme.../100609334) but not in the store. Lowes and Ace Hardware are selling it for $29.99.

I thought it was a good deal since I needed it but not slick enough to post.

It uses 1/8" bits, not as strong as a regular router but still very useful for small jobs. Also, it only works with specific Dremel models.

If you don't have a big router and you need something a bit better than this, take a look at the Ryobi ONE+ P601 Palm Router (https://www.homedepot.com/p/RYOBI.../206955202). It's not a plunge router but I'm waiting for a deal on it to pick one up.

Really depends on what you intend to use it for. A dremel can only handle very light duty tasks, like art projects, decorative carving, etc. Can't really expect it to, e.g., put an ogee on an 8' board, which is what I typically use my router for.

Anyone use this for door hinges and 1/4 roundovers? Would be cool to use the 12v dremel instead of corded trim router
