First off, there are several flavours of Dremel. The cheapie is a bronze bearing unit and its better than nothing but not by much.
Get a ball bearing, plug in model. The cordless ones are ok, not OK. If you can you might even look for a "gently used" ball bearing one used on CL or Ebay. Feel that they might be made of better quality than those sold today.
Cannot live without mine. Use it all the time. Bought it in the 1970's (it was the top of the line model then) and its been worth every penny.
