The price, I think, for all models of the Makita tool is too high, even if it is made in Romania or China, but it is better to buy a tool from this company than some clumsy Bison or Whirlwind. Some pros: Noise from work is not as pressing on the ears as on cheaper models. The balance is excellent, the handle is comfortable. With its cons: There is no permanent lock button when pressed, I had to turn the gearbox 90 degrees, although the instructions do not say anything about this, but almost all Makita models have a 230 disk, this can be done. By the way, in devolts, this will not work. It has become much more convenient to work, and as for the guarantee, the Makitov grinders, like Yakut horses, are not whimsical and hardy.
