Review on Angle grinder Metabo WEV 850-125, 850 W, 125 mm by Adam Wiedemann ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product is of good quality, there is only one minor defect.

I bought a grinder in a construction equipment store six months ago for repairs in an apartment. I sawed her a strobe in concrete with a diamond blade, cut plastic boxes for ventilation, cleaned the plaster and, of course, sawed metal. In general, the grinder is satisfied. Quiet enough at low speeds. The only problem is that at these speeds, a grinder is usually used for grinding and polishing, but this requires power (torque) and maintaining speed under load. In this model, instead of a speed sensor, the electronics tries to regulate the speed by changing the current. More precisely, I should try, but it doesn’t work here, the speed under load sags very much, so in order not to burn the grinder, we try not to load the grinder at low speeds. Plastic at low speeds cuts perfectly. Build quality is generally good. True, there was one joint, the back cover did not want to be removed. It had a threshold on the underside that clung to the regulator block. Somehow he removed the cover by prying with a screwdriver, cut off the threshold with a knife, now everything is fine. All the same, the Chinese build quality is felt. Gear in my grinder with an oblique tooth (you can see in the pictures) As a result, I will put 4/5. I take one point off for noise and vibration.

Pros
  • - Smooth start - Comfortable grip - light weight - Low noise level at minimum speed
Cons
  • - Mediocre build quality and materials. No better than interskols and assaults - Very strong noise at medium and maximum speeds, vibrations at medium speeds - not working constant electronics

I use it for grinding and polishing at low speeds. Hope it lasts a long time.

If only they put a vibro pen in the kit, and I would be happy!
