Complete crap - took 10 minutes for my grinder to break

Yes I saw bad reviews but decided to give it a try anyway. (I also bought an OEM DEWALT pad at the same time expecting to be disappointed with this half price plastic POS). It installed well. I started with a light sanding job and noticed strange loud vibration noises and then the pad completely separated from the sander. Upon inspection (see photos) the screw holes were enlarged enough to cause separation. No solution seems impossible. That's my $8+ lesson a day. Maybe it will help you decide against a purchase. Looking at all the options here, I'm not sure which would be the best. I will install DEWALT later today. Hope it is better quality than the cheap plastic.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • I don't remember
