21 customers mention9 positive12 negative

Customers are mixed about the maneuverability of the sander. Some mention it's easy to use and maneuverable, it just glides right along, and holds its rotation speed well. However, others say that the dander surface does not rotate very fast, it spins at a very fast RPM, but doesn't have enough power to spin when any pressure is put on it.

"...Today, I needed to do some sanding, and it stops spinning as soon as I touch the wood.I've opened it up, but can't identify the issue...." Read more

"...I hope this last for years and years. I really love the feel, it’s very ergonomic. I hope this machine was made for me." Read more

"Maybe I have a defective unit, but, the actual sanding surface rotates very slowly. With light pressure it rotates a bit faster...." Read more

"...Holds its rotation speed well, no loose parts, decently comfortable to hold.if you want a premium sander, pay a premium price...." Read more

Worked like a champ on my live edge project
5 Stars
Worked like a champ on my live edge project
Bought this to make a live edge bench for a friend. Got a pack of sanding disks that had a wide range of grits.Took me about a day to go from rough sawn oak and fill in all the splits and holes etc with bondo tinted with black oxide then seal with wax/oil.It's super smooth and this poor little sander just kept going, no issues.I found emptying the dust chamber a little awkward as well as how close it sits to the handle and putting on the sleeve in the first place was not easy either, it's like a pressure fitting or something.It does, however, keep a lot if dust from flying, but when sanding on corners etc, it's not going to work for that dust.I'm really happy with this sander, now I have a terrible desire to sand all sorts of wood furniture and refinish it.
