sander
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] i bought this yesterday to sand cabinet doors ,worked great.
Your tools only one i use.
I own quite a few Ryobi One products in the 18v and 40v varieties.
When I had the chance to pick up this RYOBI ONE+ 18-Volt Cordless 5 in. Random Orbit Sander I jumped on it. I don't use a sander all the time or for long periods of time, so a cordless one works perfect for my needs.
Out of the package it came with a few sheets of sandpaper, a dust bag, and the sander. This sander did not come with a battery (you can buy a set with the battery and charger), but since I had a few batteries it was a good deal. Ryobi has built a solid sander that is constructed well and simple to use. Just place the sandpaper on the Velcro equipped head, plug in the battery and you're ready to roll.
I used it with my 1.5ah battery and it performed well. It had plenty of power and it sanded my project with ease. When done sanding, it looked great. The random orbit sander creates a smooth finish without grooves or being able to see where it has been sanded.
I had an old pallet that I am planning to stain for the decor in my son's wedding. There were work boot foot prints all over it. They sanded out, created a smooth surface, and is now ready for stain.
The convenience of being able to use this without a plug or extension cord is great. It is a little heavy with the battery but most sanders are heavy. If you are looking for a tool for your shop, I highly recommend.
So to start you need to know this is not a heavy-duty industrial sander. The sander is meant to be an at-home DIY orbital sander that will work great for most people. The Ryobi ONE+ line is great because it has so many options and they tend to be good quality for the price. This is not the best sander I have used, but for an inexpensive batter operated sander it works very well. Most of the sanding I do is on pine or plywood with occasional uses of teak, oak, and maple. This little sander appears to handle each job great and paired with good quality sand paper it will handle any DIY job you have.
You all know that feeling you get when you pick a tool and think, "Yeah, this was the right choice!". Well, the Ryobi ONE+ cordless palm sander is one of those tools. Ready to work right out of the box with the 3-piece sample sanding discs included. Just pop in any Ryobi ONE+ Battery pack and you are sanding everything from wood trim in the kitchen to a metal trailer fender. The sander accepts any 5" hook & loop vented sanding disc. Ryobi includes a dust bag that is a friction fit. The dust bag works well, but you need to make sure you tap it over the exhaust port. I knocked it off a couple of times. The exhaust port will accept any 1.5" vacuum hose too. This sander has an extremely comfortable and grippy overmold palm rest. The power switch is located at the front for easy access and is dustproof. The 10,000 orbits per minute ensures you get a very consistent and even finish. I decided to really put the sander to the test by sanding out a metal trailer fender. The paint was chipped and rusted in several places. I started with 80 grit and worked my way up to 320. The sander ran smoothly and with little vibration. I was able to finish all the sanding prep using only one 2.0 Ah battery. The finished results were great, I am so happy I picked up this cordless ONE+ sander from Ryobi. As with most Ryobi tools, The PCL406 Palm sander comes with a 3-year warranty.
The RYOBI ONE+ 18-Volt Cordless 5-inch Random Orbit Sander fits my needs perfectly. It is battery powered, does an excellent job, it is small and lightweight, doesn’t make a mess when connected to my shop vacuum and I don’t feel any vibrations when using it.
I cut lots of small items on my CNC Router and needed a sander that was small and lightweight to these items once I take off the CNC. The RYOBI ONE+ 18-Volt Cordless 5-inch Random Orbit Sander is just perfect for this task.
The sander comes with three sanding discs (80, 120, and 220 grits) and a dust collection bag. I put the dust collection bag away in a cabinet and connected the sander to my shop vacuum; this collects all of the dust and keeps my shop from filling with dust.
I highly recommend the RYOBI ONE+ 18-Volt Cordless 5-inch Random Orbit Sander.
Portable, convenient, very good performance and results, good quality and value.
This Ryobi 5 inch random orbit hook and loop sander is a very nice addition to my battery operated tools. I have not abandoned all of my corded tools which still come in handy for large projects, but am relying more on the convenience and portability of the battery powered tools. This Ryobi is part of the One+ 18 Volt tool system that uses the same type of battery. I have other Ryobi One+ tools and already have a charger and several 18V One+ batteries, so I only needed the tool. The sander with my 3Ah battery installed is a little heavier than my corded orbit sander, but not significant. It does have a dust collection bag and the dust port can be hooked to a vacuum with an adapter. It seems to perform as well as my corded sander, being limited only by the life of the battery charge. Good quality and value.
This sander is a god tool to have in your tool box! It is small but heavy enough to give good control when it is sanding. Right out of the box it is ready to go. Just attach the dust pickup bag, stick on one of the three sanding discs included, attach a battery of any of your existing Roybi One tools and turn it on!. I used the 80 grit on a piece of rough wood to try it out. The sander took of the top in just a minute. There was plenty of power and good control. For a quick small job, this cordless sander make the job go fast! I expect this sander to give many years of service and be an asset to my tool set.
Random orbital sanders are great. They remove material quickly and leave few swirl marks on the finished product. I have two corded models now; one for bare wood, and one for finished wood and other materials that have a tendency to clog the dust collectors. Both do a great job but that darned power cord seems to always be in the way. I have even developed a wrist flick to fling the cord away when need be. Now I have this lightweight 18v Ryobi sander so I don’t have to worry about that. It weighs about a pound less than most corded sanders but still runs at about the same speed (10,000 OPM) as a corded model (8,000 to 12,000 OPM). It has less vibration and noise than those other sanders too! I also like that it uses the same 8-hole hook-and-loop sanding pads as my other sanders. Lately I have been searching for an adapter for my sanders so I can use them with my shop vacuum to get rid of dust. When I contacted Ryobi about an adapter they pointed out that I don’t need one! The dust exhaust is made with a conical shape so that it will directly attach to most 1¼ to 1₇/₈ vacuum hoses without using an adapter. I tried it and it does! The folks at Ryobi really do engineer their tools with the customer in mind.
