Pros

Well recieved the package in good order and on time as usal great job amazon. At the present time makita's is lowest cost, as an amazonprime shipped-free product. This leaves cost as a criteria i choose to select what brand to buy.

Quality


So still oem quality, but four stars instead of five for not identifying this in the product description.


As a novice, i am very happy with the build quality and would recommend.


My makita 9403 came with a single 80grit belt clearly branded with the makita trademark on the backside.

Packaging/appearance


It is no fun changing a belt every few minutes when the glue separates and the belt shreds.

Competitiveness


Much better than the no name brands.


The oem is the same 80 grit sanding belt that comes with the makita 9404 belt sander, and they had a weired odor.


I've used one belt on a ridgid osolating sander for about three hours sanding very hard wood and it's just now wearing out.
