Review on πŸ”§ AmazonBasics Pneumatic Air Angle Grinder: High-Performance Cutting and Grinding Tool by Tim Burns

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Surprisingly good quality and the body doesn't let any nozzles get lost.

This air grinder takes about 5 minutes to install. First you need to remove the back cover of the grille and either connect the air quick connector to the air compressor hose or just connect the threads directly to the air compressor hose if you don't plan on changing air tools frequently. Next, use the two included wrenches to tighten any whetstone or tool you need to use. This kit comes with some pretty decent instructions if you need help tightening your bits. It comes with a small number of attachments to help the average person get started with home projects, but I'd definitely recommend getting the extra attachments if you're planning a complex project. The instrument itself feels good. It doesn't look very cheap, but it doesn't feel like an overly expensive air tool either. It falls somewhere in the middle between these two instrument classes. The trigger is light and the attachments stop almost immediately once the trigger is released. It wasn't loud enough to make me feel like I needed earplugs as they were used in my shop, but make sure you have them on hand in case you need them for your work. What I like most about this tool is that it has a case to store all the attachments so they don't get lost in my shop. This tool should work very well for those who want to use it for light to medium tasks. Also, be sure to wear a face shield in addition to safety goggles when using this product as metal fragments and splinters can be thrown straight at your face and neck!
