I love this sander, I have a couple that I have used for many projects over the past 2 years. I put different grits on each so I can quickly sand a project from coarse to fine. I have found that using the 3ah and 4ah 21700cell batteries are terrific for weight and balance, as the older 18650 4ah and 5ah batteries are just a bit bulky.
There's nothing like a cordless sander, and an orbital one at that. This sander is extremely effective and easy to use. It includes a wheel to adjust the speed of the rotating disc, which can come in handy for certain types of woods or desired sanding speed. I can't stress enough how crucial it is for a sander to be cordless. You often need to get into odd positions, and have to move the unit back and forth in long strokes. A cord only makes these scenarios annoying and/or difficult to accomplish. There's also a nice little removable dust bag, so there's virtually no dust to choke on coming from this sander. And it's very easy to click off and empty. Overall, highly-recommended, very easy-to-use sander.
I love this sander and use it frequently on alot of jobs. The only setback I have is when putting a higher AH Battery it then makes the sander a little bulky and heavier to use. I really don't mind it much but thats just an obvious added setback if you can call it a setback really. I imagine for an elderly person or younger person that it might pose an issue with a bigger battery but other than that I love it and live the variable speed selection. I actually have 3 of these sanders and am satisfied with the purchase and price of each one. I would definitely recommend to anyone in need of a durable solid sander that performs well.
I received a DeWalt Combo set that included the 20V Max XR Sander for Xmas from my wife. It works great for about 2-4 minutes then it abruptly shuts down. If I remove the battery (which is very difficult to do), and blow out the contacts, it works for a few more seconds. Love the rest of the set...
bought this sander a while back for multiple DIY projects and it's been awesome! The Variable speed is very useful and the size is very convenient. battery life isn't bad either honestly not much bad I can say about this tool. 10/10 would reccommend!
Bought this to sand down doors to be repainted, works great, comfortable in my hand. The only complaint is the balance of it when you put your battery on because it adds weight to the back, but that is to be expected.
