Dremel 4000 - buy or not to buy?

[Pip1968]

I wanted to get some advice before I buy a Dremel. I assume it is the 4000 or a cordless 8200. Are there any better imitators about or is this about as good as it gets. I am going to use it to remove individual tiles from the shower cubicle as some have cracked and as the water is seeping in and so more expansion and cracking.

It is driving me mad. I have other uses for it too so hopefully not a complete waste of money.

Any comments from users - ?

Would that be a saw that is not moving or should I try a Stihl?

As Vic says, but get a dremel anyway they are great you can use it to strim the grout out carefully

They're really handy for a spot of polishing on the oil filter housing and Vanos unit too...

Get it bought, no end to it's possible uses, eg. No more seeking unobtainable dental appointments, when you have your very own 'Dremel 4000' at your disposal.
Hard to reach places - no more, like toenail strimming with your 'Dremel 4000' - I wouldn't be without one!
