Strong ratings on a Makita tool with confirmed electrical specs, but the listing itself does not name the tool type or resolve its own power source contradiction. Confirm the tool type through the model number before buying.

Overview
A 120V, 10 amp electrical rating puts the Makita 9237CX3 firmly in corded tool territory, running up to 3000 RPM at a 7 pound body weight. The listing groups it under a generic Specialty category rather than naming the tool type.
One spec field tags this Hand Powered while the voltage and amperage nearby point to corded electric, an inconsistency in the listing itself, so treat the electrical numbers as the reliable ones.
- 120V, 10 amp electrical rating
- Speed up to 3000 RPM
- 7 pounds
Who it's for
This one rewards buyers who already know they want this specific Makita model and can fill in the tool type themselves, since the listing does not name it directly. If you need the category or tool type spelled out before buying, look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Confirmed 120V, 10 amp electrical rating
- Variable speed up to 3000 RPM
- Manageable 7 pound weight
- Listing does not name the specific tool type
- Power source field conflicts with the voltage and amperage specs
Performance notes
120V and 10 amps feeding speed up to 3000 RPM means this draws real electrical power, despite a Hand Powered tag elsewhere in the spec sheet.
