I have bought and used the channel cutter. I have run about 30-35 lpm in concrete so far (40mm deep). It will be about 100-150 lpm when everything is done. So far, it has worked well and feels okay+ for a home DIYer. Obviously, a good vacuum cleaner is required, but it basically doesn't create any dust then. The model I chose comes with 6 diamond blades. The first pair have held up okay for what I've done so far. But I believe I will wear out all 6 before I'm done.N Nyfiknanicke said:
For what I need it for (grooving in 4 rooms), I'm convinced it will pay for itself!
It feels stable and solid for being "cheap."
The only negative thing I have to say so far is that the button is a bit hard to press and cannot be locked in the "on" position.
However, they are good enough that after "test-buying" their channel cutter, I am a bit tempted to test the quality of their other tools. But I have "everything else" in "pro-brand," so we'll see if I can justify a purchase
I haven't tried, for instance, a Meec from Jula but find it hard to believe it would be better. Especially since 6 blades are included with the Vonroc.
The delivery to Sweden from the Netherlands went smoothly.

Nice to know that the tool delivers, then maybe it could be worth testing for that price tag.
Bought their battery machine package with 6 machines and 2 4ah batteries + impact driver with 1 4ah battery. I've used the reciprocating saw the most so far as I've used it to cut down some small trees on the property and cut up for firewood and think it delivers well. Just as good as the Hikoki I have in the work van.
I've only used the drill driver a little, drilled a few holes in wood, chipboard, and stainless steel without issue.
The impact driver has only driven about 20 screws into chipboard and I think the only negative so far is that it can't turn off the impact. When you have to unscrew some shelf after the child has gone to bed, it would've been nice when it's lighter screwing that doesn't require impact.
Bought a house for the first time in August so there haven't been many projects yet, but by the summer there will be more screwing and sawing. Nothing feels cheap or flimsy. Doesn't feel as solid as dad's Makita but it's a bit like comparing apples with pears. 6 tools with battery are also cheaper than his drill driver with battery.
Happy to update if there's interest when I've used more tools and tested the drill driver more.
Best regards, Stagge

Is there anyone else who has used vonroc for a while and has experience? I managed to drop my miter saw so badly that it's not worth repairing. I was considering buying blue Bosch or Makita, but after some Googling and YouTube videos, I decided to order https://vonroc.se/kap-och-geringssag-2200w-216mm partly for the price (I'm not a frequent user of miter saws but appreciate having one on hand when starting a project) but also for its design, which makes it very compact and easy to store. I haven't received it yet, so I have no comments yet, but as I said, I'm curious if anyone else has practical experience with the brand.

Indeed! It initially seems to work well! It chews down without problems. And not excessively loud. (I only had headphones over my ears and not real earmuffs and it was no problem)
I also like the hard plastic tub!
It's not super fast, but it "chews away" at a reasonable speed. So you can't be in a hurry.
I bought their 1800w rotary hammer last year to split stones in the garden together with 16mm wedge shims. Without having much experience with rotary hammers, I have been super satisfied with the machine! So satisfied that I have started looking at their other range of machines.
I have their bilge pump with integrated float that I use to pump out a stormwater well with poor flow when it can't drain quickly enough.
The first one got completely worn out when it was trying to pump water full of gravel and stones (my fault) for many hours, and there were no spare parts, but I got a brand new one under warranty, which was nicely handled (it was entirely my fault that it tried to pump sand and gravel)!

Can someone confirm/debunk my prejudices that these are rebranded China items sold at a premium, in the same class as Meec, Parkslide, etc.? They emphasize a lot that it is developed in the Netherlands but feels like a scam.
Bought the Vonroc bench drill PD501AC and the machine is quite okay for hobby use.
Same features as Bosch PBD40.
It comes with a machine vice of simple quality. I paid 1800 including shipping, now it's sold for 1439 SEK!!!
On their website, it states that, as the amateur says, they are developed in NL and manufactured in China, just like the Bosch PBD40.
Looking at the whole clip that Anders posted, the Vonroc miter saw was just as good as the Metabo’s at 1/3 of the price. Both have pros and cons.
