Pros & Cons
Pros
The sander is so sturdy and done a really good job. Best part is the flat top so you can flip it upside down and use it. Comes with a large, sturdy box too. It is a good quality tool but has a polycarbonate housing.

And not made in china, that’s a plus.
The deck was so rough with all kinds of splinters, ridges, chips and cracks.
Price

Packaging/appearance
Comes with a large, sturdy box too.
Competitiveness
Both have a poor tracking adjustment as it is a phillips screw for adjustment.
Prefer this brand of tools and this one lives up to it's name.
