I have a foredom and a pro-dremel branded. The dremel is a toy compared to the foredom. Definatly worth the few extra bucks.

MY dremel serves its purpose and it was a gift from the wife. Boy that Foredom looks like a real nice piece of equipment. I would recommend it just form looking at it on the web page.

I got mine 10 years ago and paid 5 times what they go for now. The dremels have really driven down the price but the quality never changed.
