Doer Compact Tool Kit

[RGIvy]

A friend asked me about a "Doer Compact Tool Kit"
TBH I've never heard of it and have no idea if it's worth it.
He has very limited space and quite likes the unit.

Anyone actually tried it?
... or seen it in action?

Looks fairly similar to the previous offering some years back, I cant remember what it was called, which apparently was useless... to much play ect rubbish batteries.

I think that if something is designed to do more than one job, it invariably doesn't do the first job properly.

Looks like all the other of it's kind, terrible.

To me it looks like one of those things custom designed and made for the sole purpose of selling. Not for being used at all.

$500-$700 for the following:

"The Doer Compact Tool Kit contains 12 different power tools—a hammer drill and driver, a drill press, a jigsaw, a scroll saw, a circular saw, a table saw, a hotwire cutter, a table hotwire cutter, a table sander, a mini lathe, a work light, and a lantern."​

If we throw away the work light and the lantern, that's 10 tools @ $50-$70 each. $50 for a lathe? I think not. $50 for a drill is questionable.

Perhaps if it came in pink I would be more enthusiastic.

Just pink or camo pink?
