Purchased this 3 years 2 months ago to do one job, was brilliant and did what I wanted in 30 mins.
I now went to use it again and within 10 mins it stops working, I think the motor has blown.
I contacted the Bosch service desk and they just couldn’t be bothered, one line answer basically telling me they cannot help.
What a joke, lasted 40 mins. I might as well have purchased a cheap brand and could not have lasted much less time.
Do not waste your money buy another brand.
This item comes with a European plug, not a UK plug. I have been offered and accepted a 10 refund so I can purchase an adaptor plug, so upped the rating a star.
Excellent tool, bought as a replacement for my radiospares drill that’s served me since the late seventies, Purchased as a refurbished and checked item so a litle cheaper, really great quality and able to accommodate a wide variety of readily available accessories, perfect for every task you can think of, i wanted the very best and got the best.
most US-based Dremels were only rated to be used 110V and luckily I’ve found a UK seller who delivered my item quickly. I’m very happy with Dremel 4250 and its accessories. The basic set will be good enough to start home projects.
Could have bought cheeper, buy cheep buy twice, if you can afford Dremel buy it, the cheeper one’s are ok , but if you want a product that lasts buy Dremel, I’m very happy with my purchase
This tool is very easy to use, even though it came with no instructions.
You tube vids helped me figure it out.
The easy fit cutting disks are great ( it comes with 2 of these)…. but the plastic toilet nut broke one.
don’t even try the paper thin 250cutting disks for this job… they shatter.
i ended up just using an old soldering iron to melt the plastic nut off , and then prying it up from the top. … in case anyone has to change their toilet seat.
This Dremel 4000 Rotary Tool 175 W, Rotary Multi Tool Kit with 4 Attachment 65 Accessories is a great piece to add to your collection. I can well see me using this in the summer months for many projects.
Especially after i get some practice in with the many different heads.
The box it comes in has a guide to the uses of the different heads on the back of it.
Yes i would recommend this tool. It may not have done what i bought it for, but i can see me using it for many many more fun projects.
Whilst I’ve been pleased with my FERM cordless units I wanted something with some grunt, mains powered and that was versatile. I wasted my money on a non Dremel unit and figured I’d finally make the leap to a Dremel.
Yes, it is as good as people say, massive amounts of power that with the right bit will eat through what you are working with. Longevity I don’t know about, but I have registered it for the additional warranty. My only gripe is why the heck don’t they include a more flexible cable? It is very solid and not easy as in colder weather the cable is very rigid like.
An excellent tool. Use it for detailing on my woodcarvings. Wouldn’t be without it.
Pro – Dremel is very use full product for delicate wood work, like furniture restoration
Con – Special deal for accessories attachments (non consumable) are missing. like greep attachment, 90 degree angle estc..
Felt great in the hand and accessories looked and felt quality. When starting it off I was shocked by the terrible noise and had worries it was a dead one. It took a number of starts and continuous use for the noise to go. Tried using a number of tools it runs straight but rough on slow speed. Changed to this from the run of the mill cheaper one. Don’t feel the price difference to be honest, better but not fantastic. Should have tried the ones between cheap and expensive.
Bought to correct an electric socket box fitment (needed to cut wall tiles fitted in front of screw holes) but have used it many times for cleaning polishing and grinding. Use original attachments at approved speed and its magical.
Great bit of kit, replaced a cheap version that I think originally was bought from Woolworths, this is a very versatile tool comes with many useful heads, I’m sure with the case provided it will last year’s.
A wide range of included bits and attachments that will likely take me years to experience. The flexible shaft is super useful. I hang the Drexel up above the workbench then use the flex shaft to work on smaller more detailed jobs. The unit itself, with the super fast 30000 setting is more capable than its small size might indicate. Being cabled rather than cordless it is quite light to handle and also comes with different grips for additional control.
A must have in every household!
You can not imagined how many times this tool has saved me.
When you need something delicate or hard to reach with large tool, Dremel will save you!
11/10 – Would Absolutely Recommend!
I’ve been meaning to purchase a Dremel for a long time and I wish I hadn’t have waited so long; Superb tool, well made and powerful. I’ve used it for wood carving, sanding and cutting this far, all with great results. Pleased I went for the 4000
I have been wanting one of these for a long time and finally bought one. Its a very well made, powerful tool that is proving to be extremely useful. I have a workshop full of large tooling but occasionally one needs to get into tight spaces – this is just the job.
So many times have i struggled to get into tight areas in order to cut off bolt heads or siezed brackets, down by the side of the engine where it is so tight or exhaust clamps hopelessly rusted in place requiring for the complete system removal, not any more the ‘Dremel’ is sufficiently small enough for those tight places yet powerful enough to cope with the worst of rusted nuts and brackets, speeds jobs up and puts an end to skinned knuckles.
Good tool for precision work.
I got the hand tightened chuck separately. Saved a lot time messing around with the small spanner.
The extension is very handy and easy to use.
The collette lock can stick from time to time but not really that much of a problem.
Its a Dremmel, has a good amount of attachments (depending what version you buy)
However… When using the grinding stone – don’t push against – it kills them… that’s why I bought this one, I killed my last one. I was trying to put a hole in a tool, so using the grinding stone, I was pushing against the tool, it was working its way through – but then just died… it had melted the internals .
The 4000 has plenty of power for routing. So far it has performed very reliably and the tools that came with it that I did not already own have proved very useful.
I have given “only” 4 stars because it feels like the price is now relatively high. I also want to know if it has any problems that I have not yet experienced. If it works as reliably as my old Dremel 800 I will update it to 5 stars.
This is a brilliant DIY kit, particularly with all the tools and attachments provided in this set.
It is very robust, well-made and a high-quality handset.
May not need it ‘every day’, but it has a ‘bit’ for just about every task you would expect (and even some you wouldn’t).
Had a small issue with this after some time, but this was very efficiently resolved (via Amazon), and back up and running in less than 24 hrs.
From looking around, it’s good value. Only used last night and due to impatience, plus lack of clear instructions I ended up with a broken ‘bit’, and a sore bleeding nose. Good thing I wore safety glasses! Have to watch more YouTube.
Like this Dremel I’ve had cheap tools like this before and fell to bits in no time, the Dremel is excellent quality and feels like it will last I’ve used it for glass engraving so far so good.Would recommend spending the extra for a good quality tool
The Dremel itself is quite good, however when the flex shaft is attached the speed can vary due to friction inside the shaft. This can be quite annoying if your sanding something.
Also note that the shaft gets hot, the tighter the turn the worst it gets.
If you are wondering what the 4/65 is referring to, there are 4 attachments included in the set and 65 accessories. These are all stored inside a hard plastic case and this set also includes a removable tool holder with a cord wrap that can be hung on the wall for neat storage.
On opening the hard plastic case I found everything neatly placed inside and it was obvious that a lot of thought had gone into designing it. I checked all of the contents and everything was there. There are a lot of accessories and they cover a lot of useful applications. Sanding, grinding, cutting, shaping, sharpening, carving and polishing. There is a small block of polishing compound and also included in the set is the EZ SpeedClic Starter Set. In my opinion this should be included in the attachment list as it is so useful. It is a quick fit mandrel with two metal cutting disks. I show it in the attached video.
The attachments are:
Flex Shaft — this is a must have for the Dremel if you are planning to do a lot of work. It is much easier to use than the Dremel itself and makes fiddly jobs much easier to handle.
Line and Circle Cutter — you can cut out neat circles in wood with this attachment which is basically a small trammel bar, great for making coasters or anything that requires a small accurate disk. It can also be used to cut straight lines along the edge of a straight piece of wood.
Shaping Platform — for sanding wood at 90 degrees or chamfering at 45 degrees as well as other uses.
Detailer’s Grip — a small handle designed to make delicate and accurate work easier by improving the way the tool is held in the hand. Used for engraving, power carving and etching.
In use the Dremel is very smooth and feels like a quality tool. It has a variable speed from 5000 to 35000 rpm. It has a comfortable feel to it and changing the accessories is easy. I have used mine a fair bit since I purchased it. Some of the video is taken from one project I just completed involving metal work. I have used it for carving a little lizard and it was a real pleasure with the flex shaft and sanding drums. I have a lot of sanding drums and mandrels that are not made by Dremel, they are way cheaper and you may wish to look for options when replacing accessories as Dremel are so expensive. On the other hand the Dremel attachments are well made and I think they are also good value for money.
I purchased the set with the wall mount because it was actually cheaper than the set without due to an offer at the time. Personally, I think the wall mount is fiddly to place the tool in to and take it out of and will not be using it. It does however make placing everything into the hard plastic case much easier and keeps it neat and tidy. Just something to think about. Also in my opinion, the only attachment you really need to buy is the Flex Shaft, so you should consider whether to go for a smaller set depending on what you want to use it for. I am happy with this set and do not regret buying it. It is a great starter set and is capable of so many different tasks straight out of the box. There is also the reassurance of buying a Dremel Rotary Tool!
It was definitely worth the money and really happy I didn’t skimp out. I especially like the extension as having small, weak hands and carpal tunnel trying to wield the main unit would be difficult, so to have something you can use like a pencil is so much easier and with more control you can get more detail. It is also far quieter than I expected with the lower speeds being quiet enough that I can use it at night without the neighbors being able to hear it!
I’m sure I will have many uses for this dremel outside of just carving and with so many accessories available it has the potential to do a massive amount of tasks.
I cannot praise this Dremel kit enough, sure it costs a bit more than the numerous budget kits out there, but when you buy Dremel, you buy quality!! I mess about making models, and model railways, and this kit is a must have, so get the little chuck and the vertical holder for routing holes and slots and you can’t go far wrong. My next purchase will be the drill stand, which also doubles up as a tool holder.
I would recommend purchasing a ‘shield’ tool attachment, the clear plastic protects against the fragments of whatever is being drilled from hitting the eye, and with steel or rusty metal I use additional eye protection of VoltX ‘overspecs’ safety glasses (also an awesome product as the first overspecs that don’t steam up, and they are crystal clear so are great when working on detail work). I would also recommend purchasing Dremel accessories by kits rather than piece by piece as individual purchases are not good value…and I strongly recommend purchasing better quality accessories, not only do they last longer, they make the job/task you are doing much more enjoyable – cheaper items I have used simply disintegrate or wear out in seconds of use…just my experience..
As said, so glad I bought itand no doubt you will be too
It’s a bit of a fiddle attaching the various tools to the body, but has been used successfully on several jobs where a small versatile tool was required. A cordless version may have been a better option for me. The grinding pads don’t last long however the, “engine,” keeps going, and there’s plenty of kit with this particular model.
Very happy with this tool and you will find many other uses you hadn’t thought of before!
A decent tool for relatively small tasks. Don’t expect to be sanding big projects or cutting and drilling big bits of lumbar. It’s for modelling and small projects.
Super handy for getting into small areas or doing finer, more fiddly work.
There are heaps of attachments and accessories available, which make it a very versatile tool.
Quality isn’t the best but it’s not poor either.
