Editor's Review: Your Next Random-Orbit Sander
by Andy Beasley
review date: September 1, 2004
This random-orbit sander was the second-best of the eight palm sanders we tested. It has above-average dust collection and superb grips and controls. Its variable-speed dial was one of the easiest to adjust. This sander comes with a case.
