Who it's for
Suited to users who want a corded sander with a 7 amp motor for regular shop use and do not need cordless portability. Buyers wanting a lightweight orbital finishing sander for occasional touch-up work may find this heavier and more powerful than needed.
Pros and cons
- 7 amp motor for sustained sanding work
- Corded power avoids battery runtime limits
- No seller description covering pad size or included accessories
- At 6.64 pounds, heavier than compact finishing sanders
Performance notes
A 7 amp corded motor keeps output steady through long sanding passes without the runtime limits of a battery tool, while 800 RPM sets the pace at which the abrasive surface works the material. At 6.64 pounds it has enough mass to stay planted on a workpiece but will tire an arm faster than a smaller finishing sander over long sessions.
