About time DeWalt!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for those odd ball quick sanding jobs. Thus far I haven't plugged in a corded since I bought this sander. This guy is a bit slower than my DeWalt corded unit. But the hassle free use of this guy is awesome. As far as run time goes with the 5 amp hour battery I haven't had any issues.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this sander 2 weeks ago and have used it on a bedframe project I was helping my friend with. A couple of things take away the 5 total stars I could give it.
For one, the battery packs would pop out randomly. I could go 5 min. of sanding and then it would pop out, or 10 seconds. I think they might need a little tighter fit, and maybe a rubber type material to grip the battery on the inside a little better.
The sander is heavy from the weight of the battery and it tires your hand out quicker than a corded sander. Not much they can do about that.
The price at this moment is high, it isn't even close to their corded version, though this one actually has less overall material in it meaning it should be cheaper to make (brushless motor aside).
My takeaway is that if you only need to sand every once in awhile, on a job site or in random places where you don't want to string out a cord, then this will fit the bill, but if you are in a shop stick with a corded sander because your hands will thank you.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sander exceeds what I thought being a battery sander it's very powerful and the variable speed works great I haven't tested the run time but it got my projects I've used it on done
