    Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback. I tried my best to put the tool through its paces so I could properly review it. Mine eventually did crap out on me after about 3 years but Milwaukee replaced it under warranty no questions asked. Warranty is 5 years and if you purchase it on a credit card that offers extended warranties it’ll add +1 additional year of coverage. I think that makes the price very much worth it. Just make sure that you keep your receipt to make the warranty process a bit easier.

    A man who cleans and takes care of his tools! A man of culture, clearly. And you're right about the trade-off for comfort. A lot of the overbuilt tools of the 1980s and earlier had that problem- tough as tanks, but ergonomic nightmares. I'd say it's better to have a comfortable tool that requires a bit of cleaning. What do you think?

  • @JeremyY

    6 ай бұрын

    This is a good question. I work in manufacturing and have used both the Rotary Tool and an angle grinder. The rotary tool is much better for cutting and grinding in much smaller places. The rotary tool also has rotary tool accessories that can be used for woodwork. An angle grinder is much larger and primarily suited for metal work, especially when it involves larger pieces of metal. I wouldn’t dare to use a rotary tool for cutting or machining larger beams of stainless steel but I also wouldn’t use an angle grinder for cutting seized bolts inside of a cramped small engine appliance like a snowblower or the inside of a car engine bay. So really they are just two different tools for different jobs.

    Die grinders are designed for one job- to grind. And they do that one job really well. Meanwhile a rotary tool has more versatility since it’s variety of bit attachments can be used for all sorts of activities- precision cutting, woodcarving, and even sanding in cramped spaces. You can use the Rotary for LIGHT grinding only. No way that I would ever use the Rotary tool on thick hardened steel.
