“The 1/4 horse power is good. But Iâ€™ve replaced internal cable twice and am on my third hand piece. Right now the bits come out. Not sure to keep replacing or get something new.”

“My wife, bless her heart, gave this to me for Christmas a few years back. When it's working it's great. I try to be careful when using it, but the bit will occasionally snag, breaking or worse, twisting the inner cable. When the inner cable twists (it's basically a long heavy-duty spring) it unwinds and damages the outer sheath. Keep an extra cable (or 2) on hand, and maybe an outer sheath to be safe.”

“I bought the wechher to upgrade from my Dremel 4000. Within one week Iâ€™ve replaced the rotary flex shaft 2 times and it has broken within the first hour of use. Do not buy. This is junk! Stick with the Dremel. I will no longer purchase any product from woodcraft again.”

“The motor is good. However, the hand piece and the soft flexible shaft and the inner cable shafts are NOT durable enough for regular work, I'm carving one small table and have needed 4 inner cables and one soft flexible shaft so far. Product support from Wecheer is poor. I have contacted them about broken parts and received no follow-up. The standard hand held grinder is ok, at best. However, today I lost the single ball bearing used to secure the grinding bit and can't find the size of the bearing listed anywhere in the Wecheer website. At best, this product is 2/5.”
