Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Go ahead and say it: It looks like a race car. That's what we said, too, and were ready to dismiss it as a gimmick. But then we tried it, and we stopped smirking. The smaller front roller changes everything you know about using a belt sander, making the belt's route more of a triangle than an oval. And because of that, you can get the grit to spaces you couldn't with a standard belt sander—for example, you can actually scoot right up to the baseboard when sanding a floor. There's more contact area with this design, and while that may be a moot point, we think it's still worth mentioning. We really like the three-position handle; it adjusts easily and lets you have the grip you need to be in control of an aggressive tool like this one. The dust collector works as well as any on a belt sander (meaning you're still going to have a mess to clean up). Belt changes are pretty straightforward and easy, thanks to the simple belt release lever. Because it's not a high-end tool, don't expect impeccable belt tracking here; still, the adjustment knob does a good job of tracking. This is one of those why-didn't-someone-think-of-this-sooner tools. Such a simple design change offers so much more utility in a well-priced staple of the workshop.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

The front end exposure is a great idea but this tool is way under powered. Applying any downward pressure while sanding will almost stop this weakling. The rear drive ... Read More

THE PRICE IS GOOD EXCEPT I'VE DIFFICULTY IN FINDING THE 320-GRIT ABRASIVE BELT THAT FITS MY WORK. ANY SUGGESTIONS?




Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Don't be fooled by the sexy design
Never have I had a tool go south so fast. Belt tracking is a joke. good luck getting it to track straight after you start sanding. It runs extremely hot after only a few ... Read More
