Can't see this being strong enough
Maybe if you know how to use all the little bits and match them to the correct purpose, or watch various YouTube hints then, perhaps this might be useful.For me, a first time user, this tool was absolutely pointless. No useful manual so trial and error it is. After, 2 broken saw bits (which flung everywhere) and getting through 3 of the sanding barrels I have given up. Perhaps, this tool is only for engravings, but it says it cuts through nails and tiles! Maybe I will try again when less despondent and frustrated.

Works very well but some accessories are not as good as Dremel equivalents and as wide a range.
I bought this because of a resurgence of interest in making wooden sailing ship models in my retirement. I had a Dremel battery powered unit but the battery had long since died and so I bought this corded model by Tacklife. The tool itself works very well indeed as does the flexible drive supplied with it. Some of the accessories supplied with it are not so good. The little band sander head, for example, is slightly too small for the sandpaper bands supplied and so the sandpaper is not properly gripped and slides off. Fortunately, I still have various dremel accessories and they fit the tool without issue and with no similar problems.Likewise, there are some accessories like a drill stand available for the dremel that cannot be had for the Tacklife but overall it gets five stars for value for money and for the tasks it was purchased to do, it is excellent.

Handy tool for engraving not so much for routing
I needed this tool for routing groves in 3.6 mm plywood. I used the supplied plastic routing attachment and a number of routing bits including high quality Dremel's. I failed to make precise straight cuts as the plastic routing attachment is a bit soft, not exactly round, and it was difficult to screw it up strongly enough to keep the constant depth of cut. Not sure that a similar Dremel's attachment is any better.

Used it with no complaints.
Nice little bit of kit for the price. Previous dremil wore out after many years. I already have plenty of specialist bits. Works well. Due to the weight of the drill tool. I usually mount the drill, then use the extension tool to work on models with. It was the same for the last.Its bulky, loud, noisy, vibrates and vented. That is to be expected with this type of equipment. It does not bother me I prefer power and minimum maintenance compared to rechargeable and quiet types.

Great value for the price
Comes in a sturdy case ( although accessories loose main item secure). Item is off a high quality material and feels well made, the multi level speed setting is perfect for doing all types of craft and diy jobs. Light weight compared to other makes and the flex hose works as perfect as a top branded make. My only complaint is some of the accessories felt cheap and didn't last long (but they rarely do with any manufacturers).Overall I think this item is of great value for the price and has so far stood up to all of the tasks ive challenged it with in most cases better than my last well known version of this type of tooling.

Off-Centre
Unfortunately this span off centre/wonky. I think the problem was coming from the main armature as no matter how many different collets, shanks and attachments I used I experienced the same issue. For example if I helI the device perpendicular to a blank piece of wood and had a sharp scratching attachment, it would draw little circles instead of one small hole. Ordered a Dremel 4000 which seems a lot more stable and well built, I guess you get what you pay for! In process of returning.

Value for money
Can’t fault the tool especially when you take into account the price. It doesn’t have the quality feel of my previous Dremel but it stands up to the same use and abuse. Can’t say the supplied bits are the best but I didn’t expect that given the price and I’ve got plenty of Dremel ones left so I wasn’t bothered

Poor Quality..
This was a cheap unit to begin with, so I guess me thinking it would be half decent was quite naïve. It is a cumbersome heap of junk and nothing less. It is poor in very way, the accessories are cheap and nasty, in a nutshell don't buy cheap, spend a little more and get a proper kit.....
