What Customers Are Saying

The product has received mixed reviews. Some users praise its portability and versatility, but the majority express significant concerns about its performance and reliability. The main issues are that the tool frequently shuts off or stalls when pressure is applied, lacks power and torque for basic tasks, and has an unreliable on/off button. Overall, the consensus is that the product is severely underpowered and unreliable, with a design flaw causing it to shut off unexpectedly. While a few users reported positive experiences, most reviews indicate the product does not meet quality standards.

Capable, quality, and affordable in one tool.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wasn’t sure about the quality of the tool based on the price, but I was pleasantly surprised. It feels just like every other Craftsman tool and is the same build quality, so if you’re familiar with Craftsman then you know what to expect. The rubber grip on the tool is actually quite nice and the rubber buttons have a durable sounding click to them when pressed. The bundle of accessories that came with the tool was also a great bonus. I do qu...

New favorite tool!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the best time using my Craftsman rotary tool with my crafting side business and even with renovating our camper! I feel that the instructions included were very easy to understand and set up was a piece of cake. The 20v battery is a game changer creating hours upon hours of working time. The kit comes with a variety of drill bits for different cuts and designing which I really appreciate so you can just jump right into any work. As a...

Great for small crafts

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited to try this for my wood crafts. I have a a big router one and wanted something that would be easier to work with. This is perfect! Definitely have to get use to it but I already love it. I tried it out on a scrap piece of wood not the greatest lol. I love the stand so i can have all the pieces set on it and can easily change the speed.

Strong and portable for projects anywhere.

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked the Craftsman Rotary tool. I personally used it to sand down some 3D printed projects and it did an amazing job sanding them down. Saved so much time using the different sanding tips. It included 2 different sizes which was very convenient for larger sanding areas and smaller ones. I really like that there is a dial speed. I was able to change speeds and apply more or less pressure as needed. My projects came out amazing after us...

No more being held down by an electrical outlet, just slide in a battery and you’re good to go. There are so many different bits for this, everything from cutting wheels, sanding wh...

Good quality build and quiet running

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It feels well built and runs quiet. Good power at full speed, but will stall sometimes at lower speeds. The battery has good life so far, but I haven't used it extensively yet. I do wish it had the ability to accept screw on accessories like a Dremel. Overall I think it will be a handy tool to have around and easy to use in places where I don't have a power outlet.

So many uses

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use thi in my craft room, my husband uses it all over the house, and garage. I love the fact it is powered off of batteries we already have for some of our tools. I love how it has a stand built on to it, and most of all, my husband and I both really like how it just works really well for a variety of projects.

Great Tool but seems to stall sometimes

Would Recommend

I recently purchased this tool and did a YouTube unboxing. The tool has a decent weight in the hand to give you added control. I really like the fact that they added bit and tool holders into the base. The tool did stall a few times while I was using the carving burr but I'll have to do some more research to see why that could be.
