DEWALT 6 Inch Bench Grinder, 3,450 RPM (DW756)

So far, this has been working out great. It takes a little time to set up, but then just works...Starts up reasonably quickly, isn't too loud, is easy to reach the power button, and has enough power for simple grinding that I've been doing.The spark arrester doesn't really work, as the sparks travel all the way around and shoot right back down onto your hand, but I don't know if other grinders have solved this when grinding steel, either.

The grinder has no vibration and has power to do any grinder job. It is a little higher price than the off brand models but is well worth the higher price for the quality built grinder.

We are an automotive shop and this grinder sees daily use 5 days a week. We have had this for 4 years now, and it works as good as day one. Instant starts, good power, well balanced, and quiet! If it broke tomorrow, I would buy another one, but it will likely last many more years. Very satisfied with this product!

This is a great grinder. My son is very pleased with it. He was so happy when he opened the box for Christmas. The shipping was fast. The pricing was around average, but the quality of the product is worth the price. My son is very pleased with it, and every man should have one of these in their shop.

Machine itself is relatively smooth. But both wheels were very imbalanced and made the machine vibrate enough to move across the table. I had to use a dressing tool to make it good. Apart from that it's perfect.

I had purchased the Wen 6” bench grinder, found that the motor was too weak as returned it. I spent a little more and bought this DeWalt. Wow. What an improvement!Having just had two units to compare days apart I can assure you that is a _much_ better value and much higher quality machine.As you can see from my pictures, it isn’t perfect. At the top of the wheel housing you attach the spark shield. On the left side I have a polishing wheel attached and have on the outer housing cover. When this is attached the bracket for the spark shield can’t sit flush against the housing.In the other photo I have a DeWalt wire wheel mounted. Even though the 1/2” wheel technically fits, it was rubbing on the outer housing cover. I didn’t want to scrape off the paint and have a problem with rust down the road so I left the outer cover off. With the cover off you can see that the spark shield’s bracket mounts flush.But these are minor quibbles. The tool rests, stamping thickness, on/off switch quality are far better than the Wen. And the motor power is night and day (that is actually an _understatement_.)Highly recommended!!!

This is a 6 inch grinder that will handle any job a diy would have! The instructions were easy to follow to assemble it. My grinder has no vibration in it whatsoever. It is the quietest I’ve ever heard. After you shut it off, it spins for several minutes, proving that it must have some really good ball bearings. I give this grinder a A+ grade and would highly recommend it to anyone.

I have some other Dewalt equipment. I have a cutoff saw had for 20 + years & still is a great product. I did have a problem with the drill & power drill not being able to return to Home Depot. The winding in Chuck failed . Needless to say , I switched brands on my drills & reciprocal saw & circular. I took a chance on the bench grinder & bought the optional brush wheel . I will see how it works . It is quiet (low noise) & seems a high rpm. Easy to install safety guides & shields. Dewalt is not the best in my book , I think the drills were compromised using cheaper parts in China ! So I’m not completely satisfied with their other equipment & disposed of 2 drills & batteries. Use your own judgment & reviews for other brands when purchasing any tools . My honest opinion!
