Editor's Review: Your Next Random-Orbit Sander

review date: September 1, 2004

Although pricey, this tool was our favorite among all the random-orbit sanders we tested. With a 6-in. pad and a potent motor, this pistol-grip model was capable of tackling rough jobs, while its light weight and superb feel made it ideal for fine finishing. Perhaps due to the central airflow hole in the pad, dust collection was outstanding with a vacuum, and slightly above average with its dust bag. All controls were easy to access during operation. This sander comes with an excellent case, and numerous accessories are available.
