            Answer This Question

            A:  No. It is NOT variable speed. Home Depot's specs are wrong. Came to the answers here after using it to see if I was missing something.

            by|Dec 9, 2023

              A:  NO! It is on and off. The guys that said yes misled me and they should be removed from the answers.
