Highlights

Quality

Excellent quality and great built in features.

This is a great tool and seems to be very good quality based on a year plus of use.

With the idler wheel being so tiny, the scotchbrite belts, being very stiff, fly right off before they even complete one revolution.

Product did not work straight out of the box.

Price

Its a good bang for the buck !

It comes with a price: you need a good air compressor.

Shipping

Husband very pleased with this and it came pronto quick.

Packaging/appearance

Arrived in great condition and is a good tool for those tight sanding areas.

Competitiveness

The belt changing system is awesome much better than other brands i have used.

Comparing this to the competitor dynabrade this is lighter and in my less of the cost and it is easier to fit into small places

For the price compared to major brands it does everything theirs does for a fraction of the cost.

I'm disappointed that i can't find scotchbrite or similar belts that will run on it, however, since that was what i wanted to use on it.
