Advantages: good features, cheap price,very versatile Disadvantages: none
...I bought a variable speed PowerDevil jigsaw from Argos to replace my old, and rather knackered, Black & Decker one.
This was on offer at £15 and came with a dozen blades. It has variable speed with speed lock, which is great for cutting delicate materials as it lets you start off gently it also has blade guard and adjustable cutting angle. Changing blades is very straightforward, the allen key is stored in a small recess on the saw, so is less likely to be lost.
I like their range of power tools, they are well made, have plenty of feature and are very reasonably priced....

Advantages: Very cheap and easy to use. Disadvantages: None
...I bought a PowerDevil router about a week ago and I have to say I am very impressed with it. It doesnt come with any router bits, but for only forty five pounds what would you expect. However it does come with a parallel guide attachment and a vacuum cleaner attachment. This is my first time of using a router and I found this one very easy to use, within minutes I was extremely confident with it. It has an adjustable stop to determine your plunge depth and the router bits are very easily interchangeable....

Advantages: Far easier than by hand, good finish Disadvantages: Bit noisey
...Having refurbished the kitchen, re varnishing the doors etc I was fed up with using sand paper to get into all the awkward corners. This was very time consuming and boring. The quality of the finish was not too good either.
I decided it was time to get the right tool for the job. Homebase had a good selection of angle sanders, or delta sanders as they called them. They ranged in price from £13 PowerDevil to about £40 for the Bosch.
I decided on the PowerDevil due to the far lower price and it seemd to do everything that the Bosch did.
The sanding pads are very straight forward to use, they come with a velcro backing so once on they stay on yet are easy to peel off. The motor has plenty of power although it is rather noisey. Little pressure is needed to prepare the surface, I have found it to be very quick and easy to use...
