Good tool
By T. Dawson
I own at least a dozen of these sanders and have retired several over the last 10 years at my cabinet shop. I just purchased two more. We use them hard and they roll around in the back of trucks and yes, get dropped on occasion. Bottom line is they hold up well and they have made some good changes over the years that eliminated some problem areas. They are well balanced easy to use and have plenty of power. The only flaw that I see in them is the knob that adjusts the belt sticks out too far and gets bent if the sander gets hit or dropped just wrong.I'm not a real fanatic about the "buy america" thing but I was disturbed a couple of years ago when I needed to replace the cord on one of the sanders. On the outside was a sticker with the red white and blue and it said "Proudly made in the USA" on it. Whe I opened it up I noticed a tag on the switch that said "made in Mexico". Did Mexico join the USA when I wasn't looking? What I don't like is false advertising.
