Description of DEWALT Grinder 6 Inch Variable DWE43240INOX
Brushless motor of the angle grinder requires no brush changes. The electronic Kickback Brake engages when a pinch, stall, or bind-up event is sensed, engaging with maximum force to quickly stop the wheel, reduce the movement of the grinder, and shut the motor off. POWER-LOSS RESET - The ON/OFF trigger switch has a no-volt release function. In the event of a power outage or other unexpected shut down, the trigger switch will need to be cycled (turned off and then on) to restart tool. Variable speed functionality lets the user change wheel speed for applications as needed. Brake stops wheel in 2 seconds or less on average using DW4624 wheel.
Based on my observations this industrial power tool fell short of my expectations. Although the variable speed FEATURE was useful, the grinder lacked power and struggled to cut through tougher materials. The build quality seemed average, but the overall performance didn't justify the price. .
When I tried this product, I was shocked at how underpowered it was. I expected better from an industrial and scientific grade tool. The grinder struggled to cut through basic metals and the variable speed control was finicky at best .The only pro is that it has a decent build quality. Unfortunately the lack of power made it unusable for most projects. I wouldn't recommend this tool to anyone looking for a reliable grinder..
Pros
Strong motor that can handle tough jobs

I bought it to remove mortar to re-mortar the brick steps of my house. I wasn't keen on using the Hitachi because it would…
