LOVE MY DEWALT

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this sander. I was on the fence about buying it, until I used it for the first time. Now, I look for projects I can use it on. You will not regret buying this sander, once you have it, you will discover just how many small projects you can use it on.
Was thrilled to see this being added to the XR line-up. This Sander is definitely well built and feels really solid. The battery does make it heavier than the corded, but this is unavoidable and is well worth the ability to move around unobstructed by a cord. The on/off and speed control are easily changed with one hand. The dust collector bag is now off to the side unlike the corded one, but this poses no issues. The dust collecting 8-hole system still works great as ever! There is really no downside to this Sander.
I bought this two months ago and love it. My crew loves it too. The product is durable and works almost all day off one battery. It packs a lot of power and the variable speeds is amazing! My crew and I are so happy that we know longer have to plug things in to get work done on our sites. The world of technology is helping business owners like me cut time down and my employees are happy! Dewalt is a great product and I would recommend it to everyone.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use palm sanders mostly for boat bottom painting and it is really nice not having a cord to constantly get in the way. The weight of the battery doesn't bother me or interfere with the function of the sander. Very happy with it.
[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
