I bought this grinder to improve cleanliness and reduce dust in my shop. I use it to fix cars and furniture. The vacuum cleaner picks up most of the dust and keeps the grinding wheels clean. This saved a lot of time as I didn't have to stop and clean the drive often. This grinder came with an adhesive pad. Since I often change discs for different tasks, I bought a Velcro pad for this. Significantly less vibration is transmitted to my hand compared to the cheaper grinder I have. This is a high quality grinder that is well worth the money.
