VersatileThe PSM 200 AES has an iron-shaped, twoÂpiece sanding plate: The rear part of the sanding plate remains in position, while the delta-shaped tip is attached flexibly and can be turned. In addition to this, a square sanding plate is also supplied for even greater flexibility. | Easy handlingThanks to the micro Velcro-type fastening, sanding sheet changes are both quick and convenient. The twoÂpiece sanding plate ensures that the sanding paper is used to its full potential. The compact and ergonomic housing with softgrip also facilitates comfortable working. | Clean workingOn the multi-sander, the dust produced is collected in the micro-filter box, making your working environment more pleasant. Alternatively, you can also connect an external dust extraction system to the dust extraction outlet provided. |

Sanding large areasThe PSM 200 AES offers even greater flexibility than other multi-sanders thanks to its additional rectangular sanding plate. With its approximately 60% larger sanding surface, large surfaces can also be sanded even more quickly and efficiently than with the previous sanding plate. | Sanding difficult-to-reach areasIf small or tight areas such as corners of doors or window frames are to be sanded, the rectangular sanding plate can be quickly and easily replaced by the delta plate without the need for tools thanks to the SDS system. | Material-specific jobsThe multi-sander offers six speed preselections and can therefore be adapted to various materials. To ensure that painted surfaces do not get too hot during sanding, you can simply select a lower speed via the rotary knob. |

I don’t know why I didn’t purchase one of these a long time ago. I’ve been using a conventional heavy oblong sander .
This little beauty is a marvel . Light , easy to use and does a fantastic job.

Very poor result. Stopped working 2 hours after used. Can’t send it back because I am isolating due to cancer op. Stuck with it.
What a waste of money.
Bought a new Bosch to replace an older one. I find these so handy for DIY. It does the job very well, not too noisy and comes with a box to keep it together and safe. No issues at all.

There’s nothing to dislike about this sander – it performs well and is easy to control.
I do have an issue with the robustness of the sanding plates. They do seem to damage relatively easily and I’m not sure if this is a good or bad thing – maybe a softer material is less likely to mark/damage what you are sanding. I’m a DIYer and after a good few days sanding, it looks like it’s been with me for a decade.
Nonetheless it seems to do the job but there is a doubt in my mind that at some point i’ll be purchasing a new plate for the thing
Used this to sand down an oak waxed dresser and it worked a treat. Very happy with the results. Easy to use. Most of the dust goes into the collector so I plan to use this on our household doors nex

I had a quick read of the very clear instruction pamphlet and set to work on sanding and smoothing down the woodwork in my kitchen,that needs painting! An excellent product,’nuff said!

Easy to use. Can be held easily at any angle and the small dust collection box allows for hassle free manoeuvrability. I bought this to do my hall, stairs and landing and it took hours off doing it by hand the traditional way. I didn’t even break a sweat as the sander does all the work. Value for money and well made.

Does a great job of light sanding jobs, such as where filler has been used to fill a hole.
I wouldn’t use this product for really big jobs but its not designed for that so not really a negative

Works quite well, I was surprised how much dust it collected in the container built into the back of the unit. However it is quite hard to get the container off the unit and remove the lid to empty and clean the filter.

Easy to use. Easy to swap out the sanding pads. Didn’t realise how many would be needed as it goes through pads quite quickly but I blame that on the wood being sanded! Gives good enough results when making a pallet bar. Can be a bit dusty but only used it outdoors so not really a problem

I used this sander for sanding down an old dilapidated bench and seat unit which was in a very poor state and I set about the task with this sander and the first thing I noticed was how quiet it was. To totally sand down the bench and seats took two hours and I went through 5 sheets of sanding paper from very coarse to mid coarse and eventually, it looked great. I then set about staining it with antique pine varnish and the finished job is superb (even though I say it myself) I think this little sand is well worth the money and the 3 year guarantee is very comforting also.
Blew up my previous different brand mouse, trying this one instead. Easy to hold, on/off switch easy, emptying dust collector not easy but not too bad at all. NB black and decker mouse sanding sheets don’t fit slightly too small, need Bosch sheets.

Not the best if you’re sanding requirements are quite a big job.I bought it to sand my stairs which had some paint on them and it struggled.I ended up buying an additional orbital sander which was up to the job more than this.i had to use paint stripper then scrape it off.if you’re using it to take a thin layer off of wood then I think this will be fine,but that being said if the job is a lot bigger invest atleast another 40-50 into just buying one sander.
This sander is easy to hold, even for smaller hands. It is easy to set up and use. It glides along and does a great job on wood. Not tried it on anything else as yet. Also got an extended 3 year warranty online too. Win, wi

The sander is lovely. Gets the job done. Easy to hold. However, the clasps on the case the sander came in don’t hold the case shut. Strange that everything should be perfect but something simple, such as providing a case where the clasps work, is badly executed.

I bought this sander to use for light furniture restorations. For the price this is a great piece of kit! Well made, with a good quality plastic box, and detachable dust catcher/filter. Really easy to use and gives a good result! I’m not an expert in sanders but I really like this and am very pleased with it.
Used for sanding doors and wooden surfaces painted or otherwise. Found the smaller sections difficult to remove and to reattach.
I also found it difficult to get replacement sanding sheets. Manufacturer should put on their site as it’s a guess when ordering if it’s the right sanding sheets as no advertiser specifically states that these will fit that model.
I live in a Victorian house and have a lot of painted wood (gloss paint drips) to sand, this does the trick when using a variety of different grade sand papers.
My only gripe is I’d rather see a hoover attachment supplied than the dust catcher as it fills up quite quickly when doing a large job.
Sander is great , but case it comes into is designed to lock the sander and cable in place with fixed plastic posts…which is great when the sander is placed inside at the factory but once the sander and its cable is removed its nigh impossible to get back into the case….so i cut the posts off with a multi tool saw…sorry if it sounds petty but when finishing a job and trying to get the sander back in its case takes 10 minutes its no joke

I wouldn’t suggest using this on lots of large objects, like too many doors or large pieces of furniture as it is only small and that would take a very long time, bit its fit for my purpose.
Purchased this small sander for work on two teak garden chairs with lots of small intricate areas to sand. Excellent in operation, small enough to hold with one hand and the sanding face in two parts enabling you to turn the sanding sheet to get best use out of them. Pleased with the purchase of a branded product at a competitive price.

This bought as a replacement when I found it was cheaper than a replacement sole plate! Maybe this means spares are wildly overpriced? It is suck a nice machine to use, with much less vibration in the hand than other machines, and the 2 part sandpaper makes for efficient use. Do check alternative sandpaper suppliers, which bot cheaper than OEM papers and available in a wider range of grit grades.

I bought this to refurbish an old oak bookcase. It works best with the proper Bosch papers. Using the different grades I was able to remove all the old varnish and bring the wood to a beautifully smooth finish. It wasn’t quite possible to get right into the corners, but very close.

I used this on a bookshelf build today and it impressed me. I used to own one of the notorious Black & Decker sanders that don’t last very long, and sure enough it tore itself apart a few weeks ago. That thing was rated at 230 Watts and this Bosch is rated at 200 Watts, but the Bosch is by far the more powerful of the two. The Bosch has variable speed so you can more easily sand gently, and is much better ergonomically. The micro-hook velcro sanding plate grips the paper extremely well so I had no problems with sandpaper being shed during use.
The built in dust collector is a mini vacuum cleaner and like most of them it only collects a little of the dust — I hope things will improve when I get a full-sized Bosch vacuum cleaner that can be connected to it. It is easy enough to open and empty the dust box, but it is a bit harder than it should be to put that two-part dust collector back together after you empty it. This is a minor design flaw in an otherwise excellent product.
I wholeheartedly recommend this product.
To register this product with Bosch was a long drawn out affair. First of all the product wasn’t listed by Bosch on their online registration site. I was then told by Bosch customer service that it was a Qualcast manufactured item and that I should contact them. Qualcast denied this and passed it back to Bosch. After many irate emails to Bosch I finally sorted it out. This has definitely put me off purchasing Bosch products in future if this is how they conduct themselves. Very shoddy Bosch and not great for your reputation.
I purchased this to replace a B&D Mouse as I wanted the dust collection that this Bosch has built in. It does a decent job, but it is worth pointing out that it is larger than you may expect. It isn’t a detail sander, but more of a general purpose sander. Anyway it did a decent job of sanding down walls and woodwork prior to decorating.

i’ve used this so much that i burnt the motor out and bought a new one. I’ve decorated 3 large houses (every room), refurbished 5 dining tables, 4 coffee tables and done the bodywork on 2 cars and a vintage tractor plus numerous other odd jobs. dust collection and emptying is a bit poor but it always is with these tools. If it was made 10 years earlier the first one would probably still be going but cant complain by modern standards. changing pads is quick and easy though oem pads (which a best) are a bit too pricey
Easy to use sander, good shape to grip, not to heavy. Shape of foot allows access to corners but foot still large enough to sand flat areas. Sanding sheets fit securely to base and last reasonably well ( Bosch sheets). Dust extraction works to a limited degree and power lead on short side so 4 stars

This thing it great. I swapped an old rectangular orbital sander for this and haven’t looked back. I bought the additional sanding sheets from Amazon and set about sanding a heavily varnished old front door. Took a while but it is so light, powerful and easy to use – it also gets into nooks and crannies. Great for soffit boards, window cills & frames and other usual sanding jobs

Works very well, great for the little corners, but it can manage bigger areas too. The dust created is very fine, so it has to be near enough gas-tight. Consequently the dust box is quite tight and stiff. One note of caution though, the sanding pads that were ‘bought at the same time’ have five holes rather than eleven and they are too small, so although good quality, are no good on this device. The sander is excellent.

A sturdy and well made sander but let down by the dust extractor part of the set, it does collect some of the dust but it is by no means a selling point. it is very difficult to clean out as it is enclosed inside a plastic box with a half inch wide hole. the sanding ability is fine but there is no control over speed, so it is pretty much plug and play, it does produce good results though.
Overall I would give this a seven out of ten score, acceptable but could be better with slight design changes, ideal for most home applications.
Good product overall used it correctly for a load of jobs now.

We’ve only had chance to use it for a few small jobs so far but I’m not seeing anything that would cause me long term concern. At the end of this review I’ve listed a shortened summary and pro’s / con’s list if you are after a lighter read.
I was surprised, having used my fathers electric sander before, how light this unit felt in-hand. With a heavier unit and the vibrations associated with the sanding action, you can become fatigued. This unit weighs in at about 1kg with thanks, in part, to there being no battery on this model as well as some refinements over the years, no doubt.
This is, by no means, a beastly machine. It’s not heavy duty. But chances are that you’ve landed here looking for something that fulfils the need to get some sanding done at home without breaking the bank, and this offering gives you something affordable, quiet (relatively), light and ergonomically pleasing to hold.
Some things I wasn’t expecting at this price range; the collection bin with filter, for one. In practice there’s only so much that can be vacuumed up during operation, given the balance between a good sanding surface and holes for suction, and power for the sander over the suction. The result is that you won’t see all the dust collected, but enough to make the system still worth while.
The collection bin is quite difficult to remove. Whilst this might ease with time, it nice to know it’s not easily going to come lose during operation.
The cable length is not massive. At about 2m you get enough cable to run from an extension / outlet near the work area and move about comfortably around the object in question.
The detachable plate at the front may offer some tangible benefit to some, but I’m not sure, given the cost of the unit, that replacing parts is going to be that economical.
Using the sander is quite easy. One-handed operation is permitted by the convenient location of the switch, and the shape and rubber grips lend themselves to comfortable use. Aside from the inevitable lateral vibrations, I’ve not noticed much vertical vibration.
Included in the, rather nice, carry case is also a set of 3 different graded sanding pads. Anecdotally a fine medium and medium-coarse set of front and rear pads.
In summary; this seems, for the price (which seems to fluctuate so keep an eye on that) this is a well presented piece of equipment.
Pro’s:
– Price
– Weight is nice
– quite comfortable and ergonomic to use
– not too loud
– enough cable
– filtered collection bin
– range of included sanding pads
Con’s
– Expensive (official) replacement pads
– doesn’t collect all the dus
Superb Sander of outstanding quality and design. Its exactly what you would expect from Bosch, a well made brilliantly thought out tool which delivers excellent sanding results on flat surfaces and awkward to reach detailed woodwork. The dust device captures the sanded surface and deposits it in a container attached to the rear of the sander leaving the finished surface clear of debrit. I cannot fault this product, it is excellent. 10/10

The box at the back fills rather quickly but that may be down to a very coarse grade of paper used.
There is a slight vibration – more than I’d like, but this is a vibrating machine after all! It left my hand less tingly than other sanders so it does well in that respect.
Pads are easy to replace – I picked up some replacements from Machine mart and they complemented each other nicely in terms of endurance and staying on the pad (Occasional hook and loop failures on other sanders)
Overall, it is well worth the money and will save a lot of time over hand sanding.
