Electric Random Orbital Sander Brushless 350W 3A Multi-function Variable Speed Corded Orbital Sanders Machine For Woodworking, Car, Drywall Sanding, Polishing…

I have about 6 hours on this sander it is going very well so far. I have used it to sand the sides of a large boat with 80 grit mesh and then go over that with Scotch Brite using this sander. I was using an extra velcro pad. I did the same earlier with the Mirka and so very comparable workload. All work was done on a ladder and with a vacuum attached so ease of turning on/off, moving the ladder, and dealing with the vacuum are part of my experience with this sander.This sander is slightly larger than the Mirka. The controls are the same (on/off switch, LEDs for speed, variable push paddle). The pad is the same. The cord is super long, thank you. The cord does not detach and so I suppose that is a negative. The feel is not as perfect in the hand as the Mirka but for 1/3 the price it is close enough for me. The vibration is the same and I did not feel nerve fatigue with either sander after many hours of sanding.The dust collection hose is attached pretty permanently to the sander, I like this better than the Mirka since it doesn't come loose. I duct taped the far end of the hose to my vacuum and that was a solid connection which even allowed me to hang the sander off a rung of a ladder while I moved the ladder. I would say I like the vacuum arrangement on this sander better, it is more solid. The O.D. of the hose connector is 1.5".I do two kinds of sanding: flattening and edge grinding. For flattening it is as expected and with the mesh sandpaper does a great job with no dust. When I push the edge into the material it behaves very similar to the Mirka, it slows down rotation or stops and just vibrates. I would rather it keep turning but the Mirka does this same thing and so it is hard to criticize.I will update this review once I have more hours on the sander. So far I am very happy and would buy it again. I work in a boat shop and Mirkas fail sometimes here, it will be interesting to see how long this sander lasts.Update (2023-08-14) after 6 months of use:I love this sander. It is now my go-to sander. I don't know how many hours I have on it but I am on my third velcro pad and a couple hundred sanding disks. The dust collection is very good and easy to connect/disconnect from various vacuums. I like the feel in my hand and I do not get fatigued or nerve damage from it. I have also been using it with Scotch Brite pads and that works well too; the sander has enough power to scuff metal and keep going with quite a bit of pressure. I would definitely buy this sander again and am glad I took the risk.Update 2024-01-25: Still in love with this sander. It is my goto tool. Recently I put 40 grit on it and smoothed structural foam. The dust collection kept the mesh clear and I was able to cut/shape for well over an hour no problem. I also used 320 grit holding it very steady to rough up varnish. I really like this sander, it feels good in the hand, does not cause fatigue, and it is easy to switch meshes (turn it off, flip it upside down, back on again). If this sander ever fails I would buy another in a minute. I have been using Mirka 6" hook and loop pads on it, I have not found a cheaper source.

I own two, one of which I've owned for a year. I haven't owned any high-priced sanders to compare to, but I love these. They have long rubber power cords, a good sanding pad (which is replaceable anyway) and low center of gravity. I suspect the Mirka sanders (upon which this is based) are very fine sanders, but for me these are just great and at a price I can afford. Have experienced absolutely no issues. I use Rockwell hose and dust attachments to hook up to dust collector. Since purchasing these I haven't used my Porter Cable 1/2 and 1/4 pad sanders, Elu belt sander, or Dewalt 5" random orbital sanders.

This sander produces an exceptionally smooth finish with no swirl marks. It is comfortable to hold and use and has very little vibration. I set it up with an automatic switch so my vacuum is turned on whenever I start the sander. The dust extraction is very efficient and captures almost all of the dust making the use of a dust mask unnecessary. The unit seems well-built. Since it was just received I cannot review how long it will last, but the motor does not show signs of overheating. A definite recommendation.***Update 1/8/2024 -It's now been a few months shy of a year since I purchased this sander, which has been used almost daily to do medium and finish sanding on sign blanks prior to staining or painting. The machine has held up well and replaced a Dewalt 5 inch sander. The 6 inch diameter abrasive covers more area and produces a good finish when combined with premium abrasive. When combined with dust extraction it eliminates the need to wear masks. It's very low vibration makes even long duration jobs more enjoyable.Highly recommend.

Purchased this sander in March 2025. I REALLY liked this sander. Dust collection is good, vibration is minimal, like the speed control, good feel, etc. The bad review is because of its lifespan. The power switch has failed within 3 months. Sander won’t turn on, and if it does, it shuts off continuously while sanding. I’ve taken the cover off and cleaned the switch multiple times and it just keeps failing. The sander itself seems to be built pretty well, but durability of the switch is very poor.

The orbital sander is awesome. I only wish I had bought a 5 inch orbital sander instead of a 6 inch.Why did you pick this product vs others?:Reviews on YouTube said they were the best

I needed to prep the bottom of a 38 foot boat for new bottom paint. I had never done a boat this big. My 5" sander wasn't cutting through it nearly fast enough and the dust collection hose wasn't capturing enough paint dust. On a boating forum I found a recommendation for a Mirka 6" sander ($750), and another for the Amazon knockoff of the same sander. Being cheap, I gave the knockoff sander a try. First, I never would have imagined the difference between a 5" sander and a 6" sander would be so big, but it is. Second, I spent three days behind this sander (under this sander). I don't know what the Mirka might do better, but this unit was awesome. The dust collection system hooked up nicely to my vacuum and got the majority of the dust, saving my lungs and the environment. It cut through years of paint layers much faster than my 5" sander. The ergonomics of the paddle and the preset speed was great. The only negative is that the hook and loop faster system would toss the sanding disk if I spent too much time on the edge of the disc instead of holding it flat. Other than that, well worth the price for me.
