Review on Makita GA5042C SJSII Power Grinder by Michael Radhakrishnan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The handle does not match the picture. Low quality cable.

Grinder is missing the cap and looks different than pictured. 16 gauge line, rubber jacket is very thin and will kink when bent. I don't expect this cord to last very long on an angle grinder. There is no fuse on the switch when you plug it in, if the switch is locked the grinder will start. Not the quality I expected from Makita. I have to say that this angle grinder did a quick job of removing rust and metal after using the grinding wheel that came with the kit and the flap wheel I bought. Wow!

Pros
  • Great fit for me
Cons
  • No instructions
