The tool was strong but light. Suitable for my small home workshop. I have used it occasionally. When my random orbital sander was too small for the job, all jobs for the past 6 months have been light as a 5" x 20" Sunage, I went to use it the day before yesterday and now his tee just sounds like it was burnt smell plastic. I checked the brushes and they still look brand new. Wrote an email to the company, no response yet. I need my belt sander and as I am of no value to the company I must buy it here now. I order you to keep my word on a dedicated job.
