(More customer reviews)I owned a 10 year old Black and Decker 1/4 sheet palm sander that was very loud, very dusty, and very prone to vibration.I mainly only use my belt sander and random orbital sander anyway, but there are those times when a 1/4 sheet sander is still the best tool for the job.So, I bought this unit as a replacement.First I will start with the good stuff:
1.This sander is a bit quieter than my old one, but not much.
2.The gel-grip design on this sander is fantastic - no more tingly hands after sanding for a long time.
3.The dust collection works decently, and is of course a vast improvement for me since my old sander had no dust collection.
4.It is very affordable!
I guess what I am saying is that for what it is, this is not a bad sander at all.
Now for the few drawbacks...
1.This sander came with a separate plastic jig to use for punching the dust collecting holes into your sandpaper.I really wish there were another way to accomplish this since the jig never seems to be handy and/or where the sander is.
2.Although it IS quieter than my last palm sander, this thing is still uncomfortably loud.
3.The on/off switch is located in a perfect spot, but I wish it were not so recessed.Sometimes I have to fiddle around trying to get the thing on or off.
Overall, I am pleased with the quality of this tool.There are of course nicer sanders on the market but for the price this one cannot be beat!
