    Piccolo e maneggevole, ottimo per il fai da te.
    Certo, per lavori professionali occorre ben altro, ma fa bene quello che deve fare senza segnare segni di fatica o riscaldamento

    This is great. I would recommend this. I used it to remove 5 layers of paint on a wood table and it only took 1 hour. It came off easy and with little effort. If I had used my old sander it would have taken forever.

    Das Gert ist fr kleinere Schleifarbeiten fr den Hobbyhandwerker ganz ok! Etwas schwach auf der Brust finde ich. Aber fr den Preis eigentlich auch ok! Schaut euch gleich nach Schleifpapier um. Festool-Papier passt nicht, das von Bosch im Baumarkt naja damit kommst nicht weit deshalb wird es teuer! Nicht frs polieren von Autos geeignet!!!!

    Das Teil liegt gut in der Hand und das Schleifen geht sehr leicht von der Hand. Heute das Teil zum ersten mal aus probiert und ohne Druck das Holz glatt geschliffen. Ich kann das Teil mit gutem Gewissen empfehlen.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersJ’ai et j’ai eu beaucoup de ponceuses, je peux dire que c’est la meilleure que j’ai pu utiliser. Elle est trs lgre, pas trs bruyante, trs maniable et vraiment puissante pour son gabarit. Le systme de rcupration des poussires avec des sacs Makita n’est pas super, ca ne rcupre vraiment pas tout et c’est un consommable trs cher. Avec un aspirateur c’est trs bien mais on perd le confort d’utilisation. Utilisation de masque et lunettes OBLIGATOIRE.

    Das Gert ist sehr handlich und leistungsstark. Auch die Filterung des Staubes erfolgt mit einem guten Wirkungsgrad. Allerdings ist die Anschlussleitung extrem kurz, was mich bei diesem Hersteller sehr verwundert hat.

    Tempistiche di consegna ottime.. il pacco e’ arrivato con un giorno di anticipo..Ottimo rapporto qualita’prezzo …makita e’ il top per affidabilita’… note negative: il serbatoio raccogli polvere non e’ conforme alle foto e alla descrizione. La levigatrice e’ arrivata senza scontrino ne garanzia. Pessimo il corriere nella consegna…lanciando il pacco al di la’ del cancello,la cosa mi ha molto irritato ( fortunatamente il contenuto del pacco non si e’ danneggiato)…Detto questo rifarei cmq l’acquisto ma solo per la qualita’ di makita… tutto il resto lascia a desiderare.

    You can shut it down with the same hand you’re using to hold it which I like. This is my second one in the last 10 years. I won’t buy another even though the other models might be better products. I love this model and if it ain’t broke I don’t fix it!

    This sander, like all Makita products works exactly like it should.I have and have had a number of Makita and have never had a bad one. This sander not only sands well it also sucks up the dust it creates. I recommend it and would buy it again. Lewis

    It’s a Makita and you can feel it despite the relatively low cost. Careful, this is not the electronic speed control version.

    Golden Review Award: 13 From Our Userspro woodworker since 1965. have had about 2 or three dozen orbital sanders in my life. Picked this up recently and am very pleased with the performance and handling. it seems a little less aggressive than the Dewalt variable speed and a tad more powerful than the Bosch low end orbital .

    Feels good in the hand and the action is smooth and controllable. I hook my sanders up to the vac so dust collection is not an issue and i cannot rate the dust bag but for a short time i did use it off the vac system and the collection seemed a little less effective than the Bosch.

    I bought this to replace on old random orbit sander that had seen years of use. I was pleasantly surprised at its power. I read reviews on several random orbits before choosing the Makita. It collects dust much better than my old one. Also, if I remove the bag it will connect up to my shop-vac for complete dust free use.

    Golden Review Award: 30 From Our UsersI purchased this as I was looking for an orbital sander for sanding the old stain off a dozen kitchen cabinets as well as some bedroom doors for a much needed new look. I wanted something that was both easy to use but also made quick work of a very laborious chore without oversanding or swirl marks. Needless to say, the Makita excelled at both. Simply move the sander with very little pressure across the piece and you’ll have a piece that’s ready to be stained or painted in no time. The dust collection wasn’t great but it gets the job done. However, for how good a job this does compared to other orbital sanders I’ve used in the past at this price point, it’s well worth the trade-off. To top it all off this sander is assembled in the United States! (See photo) How often do you see that? I wouldn’t recommend it if was a piece of junk no matter where it’s made, but this is both high quality and made here in America. For me, and hopefully you, that makes this a no-brainer if purchase if you’re in the market for a random orbital.

    Golden Review Award: 5 From Our UsersI have owned the top Dewalt for 10 years, it keeps needing switches and velcro pad every few months, I use them daily and for hours at a time. The Makita was lighter and the pad was smaller. I liked it a lot. I did tests on 3 sanders. I held them for vibration, I see them to feel and get an impression of how well it operated and then I weighted them. This is sander to buy.

    I am really pleased with this sander. For the past few years I borrowed my neighbor’s orbiting sander. That convinced me that i should get one of my own. I did a lot of research and ended up choosing the Makita model.

    Very sturdy design, good ventilation and dust absorbance. I used to have a Ryoby, which was good, too, but this one doesn’t vibrate as badly in the arm.

    I’ve used Makita random orbit sanders for years in my semi-production shop. I dropped my latest one on the floor one too many times, I guess, and it quit in the middle of a job. My local hardware store didn’t have a Makita so I bought a Dewalt sander, nowhere near as good, bad vibration. I put up with it for a while but ended up ordering another Makita for an upcoming job and will shelve the Dewalt as a spare.

    Golden Review Award: 45 From Our UsersI returned a few sanders by other manufacturers before I settled on this Makita. It’s sanding ability and build quality are better than the two other name brands that I tried which were at a slightly lower price point.

    One problem: much of the dust is not collected through the eight holes in the disks/pad and into the bag. I suspect this is true of all these sanders but this dust bag is small and it falls off too easily. Makita has a $30 hose Makita 192108-A 3/4-Inch by 10-Foot Hose so I’ll probably spring for Makita’s hose, even at $30 which seems steep.

    Update: I bought the hose and it turns out that the 3/4″ hose of this product is intended to fit a 1 1/4″ vacuum cleaner hose and it does fit exactly! Huge improvement. With the suction of this hose I estimate that 85% of the dust that previously went airborne is now collected by the hose.

    Golden Review Award: 10 From Our UsersYou can spend more money for an orbital sander (and less), but this little number has the best combination of function and price. It is the lesser price of the two Makita corded orbital choices here on Amazon, but I don’t really need the ability to adjust the speed, so I went for the lower price point of this model. I use it where electrical power is available, so the higher power/longer lasting corded model is fine for me and I did not look to see if Makita has this among its wonderful cordless tools. I highly recommend this sander.

    It has the usual Makita power, functionality and comfort to use. I love being able to just change sandpaper by pulling the discs (also from Amazon) off and putting a new one on. Makes it very easy to go through several grits of paper on a single project without major hassle. I work outside on sanding (always), with a simple face/dust mask, so I don’t use the dust catcher (just sweep the sawdust (mulch) into the garden.

    I just finished using it for about 3 weeks on almost a daily basis on a number of pine cabinet doors that I built, as well as stripping the finish off of some pre-finished kitchen cabinet doors and I could not be more pleased. It does the job very well with minimal hassles. The only thing it does not do is go right into the inside corners of projects… but that is not usually an issue, and it works so well on the rest of the piece that I don’t mind a little hand-block time on inside corners.

    This is my first random-orbital sander, and I was really impressed with how it works. It is easy to use, not as loud as many reciprocal/vibrating sanders (though I still use noise-blocking headsets when using for any length of time), easier on the hands than the usual square vibrating sanders, and does a great job. I have 5 other sanders right now, (3 are Makita) and except for the initial removal of large amounts of wood from rough stock with the powerful belt sander, this is now the go-to choice for all medium and fine sanding applications. It just works better in doing the job.

    If you are looking closely at this sander… my suggestion is to go for it!

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersI have used several different brands in our deck business. The Makita far outperforms any competitor for the amount of sanding per SF it can get done vs Milwaukee, Porter Cable, Dewalt. The pad and sanders do wear out but because it sands so visciously. If you want to get done get this sander and get a spare pad.
    This sander pays for itself in 4 hours.

    Admittedly, I am a novice at woodworking, but I am thrilled with the performance of this sander. I have used it to re-purpose discarded wood (I made a bed headboard out of a cedar fence). I learned quickly that using the bag to catch dust is pretty useless, but I consider this a small flaw. I am VERY happy with my purchase and would definitely recommend it.

    Golden Review Award: 20 From Our UsersJust like my old one, which stayed with my ex–in other words, a great sander. However, one star off for the new switch, which is hard to operate. And I don’t even have big fingers. Can’t imagine what they were thinking, except that I guess they think the rubber sheath over the switch protects it from dust. An important thing to remember with these sanders is–and make this clear to anyone borrowing it–you must be very aware of the sandpaper disk coming off during sanding and immediately stop. If you don’t, the velcro on the rubber disk base will be destroyed very quickly. Then you have to replace it. No fun.

    Have this model and another earlier model. Best orbital sanders I’ve used. Have three other cheaper brands that are terrible. The Makita is well worth the money!
