Review on 1/2 HP Single Phase Oscillating Spindle Sander By Shop Fox W1831 by Andre Belitz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good for a low-budget shop

I have used it on several projects now and it will take off material with little effort. Pretty powerful too. Can't seem to bind it up but I haven't really tried to. Vacuum attachment on the back also seems to be pretty good when attached to my dust collection system. It is solid but has screw holes in the base to attach it to something more solid which is what I did. The power draw isn't too bad either as I have used it off of 15 and 20amp circuits without tripping the breaker.

Pros
  • The 1/2 HP motor provides ample power to handle all your sanding needs
Cons
  • Spindle can become unstable during use
