Dremel type tool

Can anyone recommend another make of Dremel tool. I am on my 5th Dremel, and I think with each new tool, they actually last less time. My last one was a 4000, which was a great tool while it worked, but it had a few design flaws, like the most comfortable way to hold it when grinding and cutting meant you covered the air vents, so it would get too hot. This one has only lasted 18months.

So, has anyone found a better quality one, or one that is designed for heavy duty applications, as mine does get a lot of use?
