Overheats easily [Posted on 2003-06-13]
Be careful with using the attachments, especially the large cutting disk. It overheated my unit and caused the shaft to expand and jam. Had to chuck the unit after using it only 3 or 4 times. What a waste. Not a heavy duty machine. Good for artsy-fartsy types. Good concept, not a hearty enuf machine for me. I was cutting a pet door in my very thin walled metal house door. It worked great, but jammed before the job was done.
Great Experience [Posted on 2003-06-23]
I have had nothing but a Great Experience with my Roto Zip! I finished off my basement this past year, and we used it to cut out all the power outlets, phone and cable jacks, and ceiling lights! I've also used the attachments to score landscaping blocks for chisiling to make a retaining wall, and never had any problems!!! I recommend it to all my friends, and I'll even lend it to them if I'm not using it of course :-)
GREAT TOOL!!!!!!
Great versitility! [Posted on 2003-07-01]
This is a great tool for many household jobs. It's a must for sheetrock work. I use it to sharpen my mower blades without having to remove them. The see-thru grinding discs make it easy to see the material as you're working. The unit has plenty of power for most handyman projects.
Busted Shaft Lock Button [Posted on 2004-07-25]
First reviewed on July 25, 2004. I did fix this unit with a home-made remedy. Busted shaft lock button while trying to loosen the bit. Took tool apart and observed cheap plastic case material deformed under torque of loosening bit. Drilled out deformed plastic, used 2 part epoxy to mend broken hole. Tried the fix, works OK but I have to put a nail straight thru the new hole I made when removing the bits. This tool has maybe 10 to 15 weekend jobs under it's belt, not hardly used at all I defenately won't be buying another Rotozip. I own aprox 30-ish high quality shop tools and powwered hand tools and this one was/is one of my least favorites. The adjustable router base always seened flimsy to me and frequently needed tightening. The bit removal was always a dull spot with this tool.
RotoZIP a disposable tool [Posted on 2004-12-15]
Shaft lock failure after lessthan 2hrs of use. the Shaft lock ejected itself from the unit. It was inserted back into the unit without the spring... the shaft is now in the locked condition and the shaft lock will not backout. I'm not happy! buyer beware.
