After using the 8250-5 only a few times before it started making a loud noise as if the motor had come loose in the housing.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Initial Review
on July 17, 2022

I purchased this as a garage tool for various griding and sharpening tasks. The initial task was for setting points for a TIG welding electrodes. The attachment went on just fine and I was able to grind 4 electrodes to the correct angels in about one minute each. Most of the time involved was adjusting the dust collector to the new location on the grinding attachment. The speed control is excellent and the convenience of the unit, no need to plug in, no cord to get in the way.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Crappy battery latches
on January 29, 2023

Where should I begin 2 issues
1 your battery latches are too strong. It takes the strength of Hercules to remove the battery from the tool. Here is a suggestion take older people into consideration when designing your tools.
2 every time I use it I have to bang the tool on the bench or floor to allow the shaft lock to work. I don't know what your problems are but Dremel must have gone downhill from when I bought them years ago.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Dremel 8250 is a great choice for a cordless brushless rotary tool. It is lightweight and has a powerful motor that can handle tough and detailed projects. It also features variable speed settings, multiple attachments, and an ergonomic design for easy use. The Dremel 8250 is an ideal choice for anyone who needs a reliable and powerful tool for detailed projects.

This is a powerhouse tool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After getting through the unboxing which an easy operation. The tool weight was a delight to hold but I was supprised the power of this battery operated tool. My wifes sink had blocked as normal the Dremel was grabbed to make a snake to grip the hair and gunge which I knew would be deep into the sink trap. I use the tool to roughen the edge of a rod of silver steel weling rod. I had to adjust the speed as on first try, as it cut through the rod lighting fast. Slowing down enabled me to complete my quick design, and within half an hour the wife was happy with the basin. I have used it several since to carve and smooth with various bits attached. I had to recharge it for the first time today, surprised the battery power and time of use. Great tool every home should have one.

Cheaply made and poor service

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The collar on the tool stripped right out of the box due to the use of cheap plastic. When I contacted customer service they wanted me to jump through hoops to get a replacement piece. Bottom line it sits unusable.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Broken right out of the gate

Charged her up, turned her on. She ran fine through all the speeds. Switched her off then tried turning her back on, nothing... Lights were still on but nobody was home. I had to remove the battery to reset. Tried again several times and same results. Obviously nobody checked this unit before sending her out the door.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
