About Festool

Festool tool with dust extraction

Founded in 1925, the German manufacturer Festool has stood for top quality in power tools for almost a century. In the vision of the brand, the professional user is central to everything. Construction and industrial professionals are involved in the development process of new products from the very beginning. The result is a complete range of machines that excel in ergonomics, strength, and reliability.

THE GOOD LIFE PROJECTS: ‘The Festool tools feel very good in the hand, are powerful and fine-tuned at the same time. This makes our workflow run very well and with precision. Festool’s dust control is a huge advantage for our company, as it keeps our workplace and lungs clean.’

Stage Unit: ‘Festool is a high-quality brand that innovates. The flexibility, comfort and efficiency that Festool offers make me choose their products. The end result is always of a high standard! Their good service and support are also important factors. The flexibility and efficiency of the products ensure that work can be carried out in a fast yet very precise manner. You can also work neatly and safely because of the dust extraction that is integrated into the products.’

Aqua-Comfort Reno: ‘For the accuracy, good service and extensive warranty, plus the cases are of good quality. There is no better brand.’

Scaletech: ‘With only 54m², our workshop is very small. Good dust extraction is therefore very important. A few years ago, we read that Festool was strong in dust extraction. And yes… that’s right. Since then, we don’t really buy anything else. Except for a few Mafell devices. We also like the detachable cord and find the systainers more practical than the L-Boxx we had before.’

JvD Allroundservices: ‘The machines work very finely and accurately, and there are many extras that make the work easier and lighter.’

klus.partners: ‘It is always precise. In addition, it is a pleasure to work with good tools. Best tool there is, in my opinion.’

ABR Security: ‘For the quality, interchangeability of the batteries and the ergonomics.’

XS4ALL: ‘The various devices fit together perfectly.’

A few more comments

‘It is a very reliable tool. Good service for repairs.’

‘Usually good quality and still somewhat affordable…’

‘Very refined and well thought out, easy to handle in perfect systainers.’

‘It always works and is also very ergonomic.’

‘Because this is a brand that has served us faithfully for years. For example, their cordless drill (about 14 years old) with the first battery packs is still working.’

‘One of the advantages is that it works very cleanly.’

‘They are more expensive than the others but difficult to compare in terms of quality and possibilities. I have to say that I’m not a pro but a DYI almost pro.’
