For a vice it is extremely flexible, the ball socket allows you to work from any angles, it's clamp depth is also very deep compared to many other vices out there, which is useful if you have thick tables (like me). However, it is limited to delicate works only, most of the product is plastic and the jaw itself is rubber, so this tool is strictly for using the Dremel (even a 4m brass tube + junior hack saw was proving to be somewhat awkward if not difficult), if you wish to bend thick piano wires or even use the vice to crush things into shape, it is not the job for this product, due to the way the grip designed, you can't clamp things very hard, and the soft jaws are not designed to take much force anyway. So for what it is it's very useful and versatile, but don't expect this to perform what normal vices can when it comes to grip and strength.
