79 of 83 people found the following review helpful Black & Decker is back!, July 5, 2010 By  The Mountaineer (Blue Ridge Mountains) - See all my reviews This review is from: Black & Decker RTX-B 3 Speed RTX Rotary Tool with Storage Bag (Tools & Home Improvement) Let me say for starters that I haven't been a big Black/Decker fan for a long time(Black and Decker quit making tough power tools around 1990-1991).If I wanted a power drill currently....I'd buy a expensive/sturdy drill.Secondly,I've used Dremel 395 models for a long time,yes I've found them to be expensive but they do the job.So what could be better than a Dremel tool?A Black & Decker RTX-these are twice the motor power of a Dremel Tool,very well designed and comfortable to use(has a very nice rubber grip for extensive handling options during use),has a universal collet to except a massive range of dremel and aftermarket accessories(including a threaded section for the Flex Shaft),and a cool Flip Lock system to making changing bits a one-handed operation.Did I mention the RTX is half the price of a Dremel Tool.This tool is huge competition against Dremel,and my hopes for the RTX model is that it will become a main staple by Black/Decker and more advanced models will be released years...

It's powerful, well balanced, and reliable. However, there are other bundles with this same tool on Amazon that my be a better value. For a little more you get the same rotary tool plus two (nice) medium sized spring clamps ( Black & Decker RTX-6 2 Amp 3-Speed Rotary Tool with 30 Accessories and 2 Spring Clamps) and more accessories. Either way, you get the same excellent tool. I just thing the other choice is a much better value. I've added my video review of "the better valued version" to this review.

Botkin (bonners ferry, idaho United States) - See all my reviews    Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?) This review is from: Black & Decker RTX-B 3 Speed RTX Rotary Tool with Storage Bag (Tools & Home Improvement) I ordered this as a replacement for my Dremel rotary tool that died after using it for various art tasks 20+ years. I looked at Dremel's selections but didn't want to buy a whole kit, since I still have plenty of little bits, sanders, etc. I only wanted the rotary tool itself, so when this one came up in my search I decided to buy it. The price and user opinions were big motivators. So far I like this tool just fine. Noise is a little more than the Dremel... or perhaps it's simply a different pitch that I'm not used to yet. Although there are only three speeds on this Black and Decker tool, I really don't see a need for more. I like the thumb control for on-off better than the Dremel's variable switch on the side, which always felt a little awkward. The power cord on the B&D is slightly longer too, which I like. One bit of advice if you're planning on using this with tiny drill bits like Dremel accommodates. You'll need to order a keyless chuck for...
