Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice! Comfortable to hang on to. Easy to use. I really like it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great sander for the price!!! This is a great sander for the money you pay. I have had it about a month now and have used it quite a few times. It has plenty of power as some of the cheaper sander lack. Of course it's not as nice as you too name brands. But overall for the price and performance I'd keep on buying.
