Depends what you want it for. Good advice is always to go for the best you can afford.

With power tools IMO it's always better to go for corded if you have access to power where you need it since if it's cordless or rechargeable you can guarantee that it will be flat when you really want it.

Ditto and they never seem to have the same power. I won a Dremel 4000 in scootering's Christmas draw a few years back and I don't know how I've lived so long without one :!: :!:

Bought the 4000 from BQ last week , the screw fix deal was out of stock and they didn't know when it would be back on, "computers says no!"
As said before I don't know how I managed without one.
