Great tool works really well very powerful robust construction belt easy to change heavy you’ve got to hang on to it used on scaffold planks to use on a garden table made short work of the sanding job
I only needed this belt sander for a bit of a one off job sanding smooth some telegraph poles for a playground. The works hard going on the tools and the material is technically hazardous so I bought this to be a bit of a disposable tool.
The thing performed way above my expectations given it’s price and brand. I’ve ended up keeping, it will only come out again for the next tough job on chewy treated timber but i suspect this wing keep on going.
I went through over 20 belts with this in two days of fairly continuous use and it’s still going as strong as it did when it started.
This machine is very good for the price. It is heavy and powerful and will require control with 2 hands otherwise it will run away from you.
I used this for a pine box and the sander melted through the wood. I am only rating this 4* as the dust extraction is terrible. The bag included does not catch much dust and the odd rectangular shape of the pipe means you cannot attach a dust vac.
I would have liked a variable speed, but for this price point I understand that’s a luxury. It was either this or the Makita I was going to buy and I’m glad I chose this instead as its done the job for 200 less. Would recommend.
Good price and with a basic feature set. This single speed sander works well. For me with 80 grade belts, it sanded down some areas of glass reinforced resin and wood in a very controlled way, leaving behind the desired level, smooth finish.
I bought this for my father for him to use in the workshop as his old one was on it’s way out and this surprised me! I don’t know a whole lot about the hardware, so I wasn’t sure how well it was going to hold up, but he’s been using it for a month or so now and it’s going strong!
I was a bit disappointed that this only came with 1 belet, I would have happily paid a bit mere for additional belts. It works well! and good value for money.
Works well and the changing of the paper is relatively easy. Would recommend ordering paper at same time as the one that comes with sander didn’t last more than 20 mins for me
Body of sander is robust. Powerful, does the job well. Has dust bag. Nothing bad to say about it really. Shame it did not come with at least a couple of belts but not a deal breaker. I recommend it. It is quality on a budge
Good belt sander for the price only problems are very noisy and hard to connect to shop vac had to make adapters to connect to the dust bag port but very powerful machine
This is a big heavy boy but well made and sturdy.
I originally got this to help shrink down doors due to them expanding during the cold winter with less household heating.
I first tried to sand the door down without removing it from its hinges. It worked to a degree but due to the weight of the sander it was hard to handle.
You definitely need to clamp the object down and use this tool with 2 hands.
Easy to use seems very sturdy. Time will tell how good it is when it’s had some use., but first impression is good.
As above.not used enough yet to give truly an accurate review, but when used performed very well
Bought to replace my old (ancient) B+D belt sander. This machine is considerably heavier but is bigger and consequently not quite so manoeuvrable? Feels sturdy for sure.
I was not sure what to expect but what a pleasant surprise I got, the first time I used it. It was used on very rough wood but it handled it superbly. The bag caught virtually all the sawdust so I wasn’t breathing it in. The result was excellent. What impressed me most was that the belt wasn’t wandering all over the place when it was running, like my old one (supposed to have been a good make) & I didn’t have to adjust it once. Definitely a good buy for anyone wanting a good quality belt sander at a very reasonable price.
This was a present for my husband. He wanted to sand down a door and he said this type of sander would be better for the job. When it arrived he was thrilled to bits and it did exactly what he wanted it do. One very happy husband
Good sturdy machine, easy to use and solidly built.
Be aware it is quite heavy shutte ro solid construction, so check the weight specifications if you don’t use heavy tools for long periods very ofte
I needed a sander to resand a table top that had been somewhat abused, prior to revarnishing. A variety of sanding grade belts are needed to do a top job, but the sander did the job.
Bought this as replacement for budget sander that is wearing out. Ok, does the job, takes 75×533 belts, replacement catch needed screwdriver to lever it out but no problem, vac bag a bit snaggy to fit, but relieved to have one since the old sander one was lost. Cheap and effective since it’s not worth paying more for such a machine.
Great sander for the money. Read lots of reviews that said the belt comes lose within mins. Mine did this too. I noticed the lever for getting the belts on and off was doing anything. The front roller has an adjuster on it for belt alignment. This gets stuck behind the lip on the front roller. Simply back the adjuster of and ha presto the front wheel jumps forward and you can see it sliding back and forth when the belt lever is used. It no longer slipped. Works great and sands very quickly. With 80 grit it rips pine down extremely quickly.
This sander works really really well. It took at least 6 layers of gloss paint off the banisters quite easily. If there was an issue it would be that changing the sandpaper on it is not easy, if you need to change mid job the wheels are extremely hot and as the paper is a tight fit it is a struggle to change it, I had to wait at least an half an hour before i could change it. other than that its a handy piece of kit for the price.
We used this one yesterday for a good hour in the same room with no problem, I would recommend this sander for great value for money well built and does the job really well
Seems to do the job, the only problem I have found is that the dust bag plastic connection is not well made or designed, so had to snap it a bit! to get the dust bag off. I’d does collect dust rather well which is good. It’s quite heavy and seems well made.
This sander is excellent. It is solid and robust. Easy to use,. Powerful and efficient. I worked it hard and it was very good. I’m most satisfied with it. Completely recommend it.
Excellent sander. Works very well for removing varnish and paint. So far been used for sanding chests of drawers for up cycling. Intend to use for sanding floorboards next. It is powerful and you need to work carefully with it.
This is a great product and is excellent value for money. It would have 5 stars for everything were it not for a poor dust collection set-up. That said, just use it outside in the open air!
Purchased this instead of a bosch one like the rest of my stuff and I have to say it’s a real workhorse. Done loads of sanding and still on the belt it came with. I’m impressed!
The one thing I will criticise is the fact that the dust bag only really collects about 70% or so of what is created. So you still turn wherever you are working into a massive dust bowl. But hey, if you don’t like dusty, you’d best not even be looking at stuff like this..
Great value for money.
