sorted byI bought an equivalent from Aldi years ago and used it only a couple of times. Worked fine, I liked it. But when I came to do some proper grown up jobs with it, no good whatsoever, because all the bits I needed to use were either 1/4 inch or 1/2 inch.
In my case I needed to do a kitchen worktop (common job) and couldn't find even a 1/4 inch big long enough. Plus that could be dangerous, given it will be more 'flimsy'. In the end I bought a new 1/2 inch model from Screwfix (£100, but they do offers from time to time) and sold my Aldi one. Difference is definitely noticeable and the 1/2 inch bits are significantly more meaty and confidence inspiring.
It is possible to get a collet on Amazon for under a fiver that will convert from 8mm to 1/4 inch, so that could be an option for you, but if I were in the market again, I'd just go straight for the 1/2 inch and have all the bit options. (edited)
Edit: I speak as someone who bought one of these years ago and have just bought a 1/4" collet for it for £13 (edited)
And no, routers run so fast that 6mm and 1/4" (i.e. 6.35mm) are not interchangable.

I'm not a tool snob, I have quite a few Parkside & Aldi tools, just pointing out it's an option. Voted hot OP
