This is a relatively low cost finishing sander but works great for occasional use in a home workshop. This is the second I have purchased. The first which I have used for, approximately, 5 years eventually broke - the plastic retaining the sanding pad base to the motor wore out and fell off. The vibrating of the sander will eventually do that. I have a replacement coming and will repair the old one for, I hope, an additional few years of service. It looks like an easy fix and the needed part was readily available. Then I will have two and can keep each loaded with a different grit so I won't have to change sanding paper as often.

This is the 3rd Makita power tool that I've bought over the years - I've never been disappointed with Makita quality. My only regret is that each tool has a different battery and charging system because of the interval that I purchased them at.

A great addition to my collection - a must for everyone that has finish work to do. I used it for the final surface prep on a door prior to staining. It doesn't have the horsepower of my orbital sander, it's a better choice when it comes to sanding with the grain! Clips are great (vice velcro).

After struggling to get a decent finish on new pine stair treads with my cheap black and decker random orbital sander, I decided to give this finish sander a try. I purchased this one based on other reviews and I am happy to say that this sander does not disappoint. While it does technically have an orbital motion, the pad itself does not spin so there you're less likely to wind up with swirl marks if you're careful and go back and forth with the grain. This square pad sander was better for my project because the treads are already installed with skirt boards, so the round pad type sanders can't get into the corners. Additionally, the dust bag works surprisingly well compared with the old sander I have. You could also hook up a vacuum to the dust port but you'd need to find or make a vacuum hose adapter. Overall, for the price this is a great finish sander and completely removed all the swirls that were left behind by my random orbit sander. I used 150 > 220 grit with this tool.

Works great easy to change paper and lock it and would buy another just wish it came with a case to put it in

Plan on using it for other products

I have use the Sanders for over 20 years and they’ve always been excellent.

Dust bag keeps falling off poor design

The bag helps with the dust

Perfect power, weight and ergonomics.

This is the best finishing sander that I have ever used, and it is moderately priced.

I had another Mikita so I thought this would be a good buy. The sander itself is good but installing the sandpaper is a pain. Definitely not the best feature. Design flaw for sure...

The best investment for my DIY kitchen refinishing project

Work great

Powerful and vacuum's good. Easy to install sandpaper.

So far so good.

Used sander to start refinishing wood furniture.Very easy to work with and reliable.Used this for 6 hours straight without any problems

Suprisingly quiet for a sander. Only had it a couple weeks but have used it on a couple projects. Works great for finish sanding to glass like finish
