Pros & Cons
Cons
It's probably ok for some simple grinding or cutting, but nothing heavy duty.
Highlights
Quality
I used this grinder for two solid months, grinding away spalling concrete from rebar, using a makita diamond blade, and it worked great.
It's strong, easy to use, has lots of torque and makita's grinding wheels are really super.
The dust was horrendous - like a sahara sandstorm, and every so often i would clean the dust from the tool with an air compressor.
If you do a lot of grinding you will appreciate the makita quality, solid build and narrow profile.
Price
This is an awesome machine for the size and price.
Competitiveness
Plenty of power compared to models like ryobi or rigid, (i own all 3).
I'd buy it again in an instant, i've always enjoyed makita products in the past, and this is more of that.

If you have smaller hands or dont do a lot of grinder i could see using this as your main tool

It had a paddle switch that i didnt like because it was too easy to depress accidentally
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The makitas switch pushes up then slightly downward and it is not prone to 34accidental startups
