Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

I haven't noticed any changes in performance since then. I use it as a grinder and sometimes for cleaning. First, I took a screwdriver complete with a charger and 2 batteries for 5A, and then a bare angle grinder carcass to it, because why buy and carry 2 suitcases, 2 chargers and 4 batteries., and money is stressful. At first I wanted to take a screwdriver with 2A batteries, the sellers advised well, they said that they would last for a couple of minutes on the angle grinder. 5A batteries last an average of about 20 minutes of operation, and the mode and load have almost no effect on the operating time, I tried cutting with a disk, stripping and just buzzing at idle with frequent replacement of cut parts, I did not notice the difference. I take cutting discs 1-1.2 mm thick. It is very cool to work with no string and the presence of electricity, and at times it is necessary for work. Completely satisfied with the purchase!

Pros

Comfortable and well and firmly lies in the hand when you get used to it, at first, after the classic angle grinders with a cord and a power button, it’s somewhat unusual, but you quickly get used to the ergonomics, which is on top, and you use it with pleasure. An excellent mechanism for changing the position of the protective cover. A well-thought-out clamping nut on the disk, with frequent use for 3 years, I used the hexagon to unscrew it only a few times, usually there is enough strength to unscrew it by hand. Interesting locking mechanism. Sturdy construction and good body material. The photos provided are after 3 years of frequent use and storage and transportation not in sterile conditions, but in a bag with other tools in the trunk of a car.

Cons

Immediately during operation, the ventilation slots for cooling located at the base and taken away by a very fine mesh are clogged. To be honest, I don't read often when I remember. The protrusion on the base and the batteries were quickly clogged with scale, this is clearly visible in the photo. But, I think, these are technological costs that cannot be practically avoided, because when cutting, the slag flies precisely to the base and the battery that protrude.
