Solid unit – I've used this orbital mostly for plaster sanding, and considering amount of plaster dust it's had on it I'm surprised it's still going strong. The… Read more

velcro is good and it has plenty of power for harder tasks. It is a funny shape to hang on to but you get used to it.

less dust. I gave it 5 stars, not because it is the best tool on the market but because it does well what it is designed to do and does so at a reasonable price.

Some tips if you are new to power Sanders on drywall; - use the finer included 260 sandpaper if you top coat is smooth, which it should be. The finer paper is less aggressive so you are less likely to sand back to the tape - less is more - don't press too hard, let the machine do the work, keep a enough pressure to keep it level to the surface. You can always go back and do a little more - some say do a pass on the outside then a pass on the middle, this is what I did and it worked well. - use the trigger lock, this means you can concentrate on positioning and holding the tool and that it will continue to run after you lift it off the wall, which is important for the dust extraction. - if you practice on some waste board first then do that because you need to get a feel the tool creating a suction on the board, this is what enables the vacuum of the dust. - the included sand discs are enough for 1-2 rooms

I used it on a cathedral ceiling which was tricky to learn on but made the job much easier so well worth the purchase.

It will leave pigtail swirl marks It doesn't have enough grunt to sand it's own pigtails out The vacuum outlet is very restricted so with a shop-vac connected it will continue to collect debris causing swirl marks.
