Highlights
Quality
Great product, excellent quality tool, very happy with this purchase.
With the 90 day warranty you’ll know if there’s a problem.
Price

Saved almost half the price of a new one.
Competitiveness
Works great just like all ridgid products.
I was surprised by how nice this belt sander is, esp for a re-burbished item.
I sanded down a 12'x12' hardwood floor with 50-grit, 80-grit, and 120-grit.
I bought this mostly for its variable feature and the great reputation of ridgid power tools.
