Customers find the sander easy to use. They mention that it tracks quickly and easily, works very smoothly, and has a nice long cord. The belts track well and once adjusted don't wander. The sandpaper tracks perfectly and is very smooth operation with plenty of power. The base is 4 inches making it very easy to handle and unlikely to tip.

39 customers mention35 positive4 negative

"...I made a jig to set it on it's side pretty easily and it works well for profile and some edge sanding...." Read more

"...Weight is sufficient to work without pressing down, which is a no no anyway. Ergonomics are superb, obviously a two handed operation...." Read more

"...The weight distribution is good - I've found I can operate it one-handed and it shows no sign of trying to tip one way or the other...." Read more

"Feels and handles great, perfect weight to power balance, not sure about the claim to being able to “flush sand next to walls”, the belt support on..." Read more

"...It is easy to see over, easy to track and it's lighter, but still heavy enough to bear down on the wood...." Read more

16 customers mention16 positive0 negative

Customers like the speed control of the sander. They say it's powerful, easy to adjust, and works well. The speed control makes it nice for fine sanding and corners, and it doesn't bog down at low speed.

I recieved this belt sander used when I ordered new. So other than it being used, it is a very nice belt sander. It is balanced well, tracks nice and, has plenty of power for most tasks. I was debating on whether to buy themodel 9403 with the 11 amp motor but honestly I was surprised with the power that this model has and I'm happy with this model due to variable speed.Overall a good belt sander that seems to be built with quality and should hold up for many years but, when your expecting an item to be NEW it should be NEW not USED.
Thank you for your feedback
