Parkside 4V Cordless Rotary Tool PFBSA 4 A1 - Unboxing and Review of an Affordable Rotary Tool from Lidl
In this video, I unbox and review this £12.99 Parkside 4V Cordless Rotary Tool from Lidl that's cheap but might not be a good choice for complete novices to rotary tools.

I'm pretty happy with mine, considering how cheap it is. Did you get one? Do you whink it's worth it?

[@odi8359]

Thanks for the video. Does it say the minimum speed somewhere? I see that the maximum speed is 25000 RPM, but what are RPMs are the other 3 speeds? Having a slow speed is convenient for certain applications.

[@reviewsto]

There is no information about the minimum RPM in the box or the manual. That being said i feel the first speed is pretty slow, couldn't tell how slow tho

Your supposed to tighten the screw at the top of the rubber roller to secure the sanding roller 🙄

I'll admit, I didn't believe you initially. Years ago my family had an old Dremel and it just worked, never had to do that. Tried what you said and it worked like a charm, thanks

[@Alex-kd5hw]

omg thank you so much, I was just about to return it just because of this

[@shortymcsteve]

£12.99? Did you buy this in store recently? I haven’t seen this one yet.

[@reviewsto]

pretty recently, that was the price in Northern Ireland. They'll probably stock it in the British stores pretty soon as well

@@reviewsto They have the corded version on sale here this week. Have been looking for the 12v cordless version, but looks like this is the new option. Thanks for posting.

​@@shortymcstevehi, can you remember the price for the corded one ? The cordless one is on sale here uk for 12.99 tomorrow 21 July

[@shortymcsteve]

@@hotdevil-hotdevil666 They just had the corded one on sale, it was £22.99. They sold the accessory box for £15, but it looks like they dropped the price to £12.99 to match the price of the 4v tool. Also, Aldi have their 12v rotary tool on sale for £20 next week. I noticed it comes with a 5 year warranty compared to the 3 year from Lidl. Not sure who has the better 12v tool.

@@shortymcsteve Thanks for telling me about the Aldi 12v next week. I had a wee look at its spec - 19.99 compared to lidl 's 12.99 but Aldi is 12v with 75 accessories and 5yr warranty ( and it comes in a nice wee storage box)
Lidl is 4v, 18 accessories ( 19 including the USB cable) and only 3 year warranty. Plus that would be an extra 12.99 for the separate 276 piece accessory box ie 26 for the complete set.
I never saw the 15 pound set when it was for sale but it must be identical to the 12.99 276 piece set as I saw a couple of boxes in the reduced section, three days ago, for 10.49 ie 14.99 less 30% and I was somewhat confused as I was wondering why it was reduced before it had even been for sale on the 21st July.... it makes sense now that you've told me it was on sale a couple of weeks ago! They knocked that couple of quid off it pretty quick.
Well, I do like lidl 's tools but Aldi 's does look like not a bad deal with the extra power and accessories. Both , however, have the same 2Ah capacity.
What one do you think you'll go for?
