Broke after a year of light use

later The dust collector is not very big, falls off with use. Even when connected to a vacuum, it ejects more dust than other brands I've used. But this one was at a great price. It works well and if you are on a budget this is the grinder for you. Annual update: DO NOT buy broken! I've never used it for serious grinding, but it broke after a year of use. It just spins at a very high speed, but it doesn't have enough power to spin when pressure is applied to it. If you try to grind somethingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • EASY SWITCHING ON/OFF - The dustproof on/off switch makes it easy to flip the switch during use.
Cons
  • I'll write

Works great with random orbital sanders

Good mill - does its job well. Previous reviews have talked about the dust box coming loose - it's a one handed sander but you tend to use two hands and the only place for the second hand is in the dust box so it comes loose after a while. You only need to gain experience with a grinder to learn not to. to fit and then sanding the edge of the disk, not the whole disk, so it creates a groove or notch that you then have to sand down. It's hard to explain, but you'll understand with experience. Iโ€ฆ

Pros
  • SAND IN HARD PLACES - Thanks to its compact size and ergonomic design, this sander easily gets into hard-to-reach places while providing maximum user control.
Cons
  • Little things

More than before work!

I bought this to sand my dining table for refinishing. I almost bought a similar DeWalt product, but it was worth ten bucks and I reconsidered my strategy for buying big name products. Nowadays, brand names are still outsourced, so often there is no difference, and sometimes brand names are inferior to their competitors. There was a time when all of my hand-held power tools were Skill products. I think the time has come back. The grinder has too much power; Dust pickup is excellent only withโ€ฆ

Pros
  • EASY CLEAN DUST BIN. The X-Flow dust collector uses the power of a cyclone to collect dust in an easy-to-empty transparent container.
Cons
  • Non-automatic
