Customer Reviews for BLACK+DECKER 1.2 Amp Corded Detail Mouse Sander

Within 5 minutes of use the front-end (nose) of the mouse started to deform and the supplied paper separated, gummed up and the hook and loop closure became unusable. Not a happy camper, time to revisit the local store

The corded Black and Decker 1.2 amp (DETAIL) sander has been a great addition to my essential wood working tools. I did read the previous reviews on the product and decided to purchase it and try it out myself, I was refinishing the steps inside my home and I needed a compact, lightweight sander that had a finger attachment which could sand between the spindles of the steps. The mouse sander worked better than I could have had imagined, The 1.2 amp motor was powerful enough to do between the stair spindles and also the steps (I was using a bigger sander for the step area but found that the mouse sander done a better job and was easier to control). The finger attachment is removable all you need is a #2 Phillip screwdriver to remove it, the sander comes with hook and loop sand paper, unfortunately the replacement brand sand paper that Home Depot sells (Diablo) does fit the sander but the holes do not line up, (you can purchase the exact fit sand paper through black and Decker at AMAZON, I have listed the part numbers below). The sander comes with 2 sanding sheets, 1 finger sanding sheet and a finger attachment holder which is attached to the cord, the see through, micro filtration dust collector works well and very easy to open and dispose of dust, additional benefits is that it has a 2 year limited warranty, you can also order polishing sheets and it has a three position grip control. I would highly recommend the mouse detail sander to anyone interested in purchasing it and the price is very reasonable. (In regards to the previous reviews it is important to use hook and loop sand paper with this unit any other sand paper will just slide off and until HOME DEPOT stocks the exact fit sand paper order your replacement sanding sheets through Black and decker at AMAZON) (I take time to do product reviews after every major purchase, help keep me doing them by rating my review) hope this review was helpful.

The sander is just right for the job. Easy to use.

Very good, no problems.

Nice little handle held sander for small crafting projects

Great detail sander for a great price! Title says it all. I hope it lasts the 15 years + the one it’s replacing did.

The Black and Decker, were Christmas Gift. I'm not sure if the two people I bought them for have used them yet. One person is a Pastor and the other is a RN Nurse. I know they are both business right now. I'm going to give you a 5 star, because I have a Black and Decker, I purchased for myself 3 months ago, and it is still going pretty good, that's why I purchased it for the other two people, because I liked it. It is very easy to operate.

Light weight and easy to use.. I wore my first one out.. I had for approx 6years and used on several projects
