Pros & Cons
Pros
Sander itself is ok, never had rotary before so wasn't sure what to expect on how it works. I'm impressed how easy if is to use aswell as great performance. It’s light to use and sands well, vibration is minimal.
Dust catchbox and grit pad work well. Dust sheets or hoover attachment a must. Would make sanding tables and other flat surfaces a breeze.
Arrived on time and well packaged. Got this at a cheaper price and so far so good.
