Rotozip SS355-10 5.5 Amp High Performance Spiral Saw Tool Kit with (3) Collects and (2) Bits, Compact & Lightweight - Ideal for Plunge Cuts, Freehand Cuts, and Cut-Outs

Great tool to make quick work cutting out holes in wood, cement board, and sheetrock. Fellas this is a must have in you collection. Don't for get to buy all the assorted cutting bits, it only comes with a couple of sheetrock bits.

Works well.

Good tool for very a specific job, but after a few outlet/switch holes it was a small price to pay. Takes a little practice to develop the "feel" for the tool. Counterclockwise cutting only. Be careful with your plastic boxes as this thing can mow right through them if you aren't reading the feedback from the tool well enough. Give yourself a learning curve, get your spiral bit set at the proper depth, and you'll be in love with it in no time. And yes, it's a dust monster but it can still be better than drywall files and saws (say if you are trimming a little drywall lip overhang on a closet or door opening this makes super quick work of that so you can get your casing flush).

Power tools are fun, but honestly for sheer joy of operation I think a Rotozip is up there. (My friend has a demolition hammer which he says is amazing when you go to town on a tile wall. And those little garden tractors are wicked fun to drive around. But other than that...) It just eats through drywall like a champ, making a super precise little line and puffing out its cloud of dust, and you just happily roll it along your marks (or around the outside of a box, or along a stud, or whatever) and then pop out the piece and just admire how pretty and perfect everything else. (When's the last time you used words like "pretty" and "perfect" when cutting drywall?) There are other tools in this category ("spiral saw" is the generic term) but Rotozip is kind of the pioneer and probably still the best in terms of clean tight operation. If only they had a cordless version.

I like this product. It was recommended to cut the plastic valence in the rear bed of my car to be able to add a spare tire. I am not sure why a spare tire was not included with the original car purchase but it wasn't. I have used many tools before and am somewhat of a handyman; right out of the box the Rotozip was very easy to use. I was able to easily cut the plastic valence and make room for the spare tire. The motor is substantial and quickly revs up to a high RPM. The on-off switch Is excellent and very easy to use. It is on the top and you slide it up to turn on and push back down to turn off. This makes using the rotozip as a mini-router or a a "spiral saw" very easy to control and work with. The setting, similar to a router, allows you to adjust the depth of the cut.

2nd one I have had. so thrilled with versatility for so many years there was no choice when replacement was needed.

This product both functions and appears as new. Definitely saved a lot of money buying refurbished. Hopefully it will have a long life. Using this to cut out can lights and electrical boxes on drywall and it has proven to be a huge time saver and it is easier to make cut outs vs a drywall saw.

I have an older model, maybe 15 years old?? I use it with a 3" cutoff disk for metal. The old one runs hard with good torque. The new one runs at the same speed as my old one, but bogs down when pressed against metal. Once it bogs down I have to wait for it to get to speed again before using. Frustrating, but it does do the job

It's well-made and sturdy. Custom drywalls easily.

Great product, handy for lots of uses.

only issue is on/off switch is little finicky

When you only have a small job why not buy something like this? I did buy extra bits and yes you need them, but it worked great and I didn't spend a whole lotta money.

What a time saver when hanging drywall
