Great cordless sander,does the job out on site,small/compact👍

This sander works quite nice. It's a little hard for smaller hands to hold. If you own the batteries already (Metabo/Hitachi) it is definitely the way to go.

Finally a tool that has all the accessories needed to connect to my dust collection so I can keep my shop cleaner without sawdust all over everything. Fits great in the hand and no cord also, can anyone ask for more I think not!

I got this to replace a 20-year-old Porter Cable corded sander that finally bit the dust. It feels like it has more torque than my old one and I really like the variable speed. Ergonomically, I wish the power switch was in a better place, as I can't work it when my hand is on the grip in sanding position. I also wish the dust port didn't require a special coupler to attach to a vacuum. It works fine, but I'm worried I'll lose the coupler on a job site.You'll want to run it with one of the bigger batteries. The little 1Ah batteries that come with the drill kit will run it about as long as it takes to wear out one sanding disk. The big 36 volt batteries will run it for hours, but they're heavy. So you probably want to use something in between.

So far so good. It actually comes with a vacuum connector that works which was a big surprise. Replacing a dewalt that crapped out after only 1 year of moderate use. Seems to be much better than competitors. Will see how long it lasts though.

Cord free orbital sander. Added to my collection.

It's a handy battery-operated sander. I wish I had larger hands to grip the handle.

good

I've switched over to Metabo tools. I like the 36v/18v platform. This orbital sander is good. I like the feel of it EXCEPT for the on/off switch which can be awkward for one handed operation. Overall, typical Metabo. Solid.

Exactly what I wanted but. It's only suitable for metabo range in the USA and Canada, clearly not stated in the description of product. But clearly stated on the box when I examined it. BRILLIANT. NOW GOT THE HASSLE OF GETTING A REFUND.
