Your cart is empty.The DWE6423 5-inch Variable Speed Random Orbital Sander Kit with hook and loop pad has a 3-amp motor that delivers between 8,000 to 12,000 OPM. The separate counterweight reduces vibration and along with the rubber overmold grip provides comfortable sanding. A shorter design allows users to get closer to the work surface and the one-handed locking dust bag attaches securely to the power sander to aid in dust collection or the user can attach the sander directly to the DWV010 or DWV012 dust collectors.

I used the sander to refinish a maple table. I found the sander easy to use and effective.The dust collection is just okay. It will collect a good deal of dust, however there will still be dust everywhere. I used this inside of an apartment and my partner nicknamed me "little Chernobyl", after basically coating our apartment in dust. I don't think you can really avoid that though. Dust is small and is hard to contain.if you must work in an apartment like me, I suggest to do it in a small room and close all the doors. That will make clean up easier and contain the mess. You should also wear a face mask. It is especially bad to breathe in dust from sanding away wood coatings like poly. These can be very toxic.I wore gloves because the sander does make a bit of noise and feels scarily powerful in your hands. It helped buffer against the vibrations. I found that when I used the sander for a long time, my hands got really tingly. But most of the time this didn't happen. It only happened when I used it for a long time on the highest setting.The sander was very easy for me to use. Basically you have an on-off switch, a little dial which increases the strength of your sanding, and a removable bag that you twist off that collects the sawdust. I periodically dumped the bag out often, based on reviews here. Someone suggested to not let the dust accumulate too long because the bag could catch on fire. I assume this is from sanding a flammable coating. I did not experience any burning or burnt odors myself.I found that if you want to eat away at some wood in a concentrated area, you can slightly tip the sander on its side and it will dig into the wood pretty well. Not sure if this could be bad for your sander, but I did that and it worked for me when I wanted to remove the burnt area of the wood that went down fairly deep.I do not recommend buying the pads that come with the product. The reason I say this is because they are only one grit, and it is the lightest grit of sandpaper. This would be fine if you are only doing some light sanding. However, for most projects you will want a heavier grit too. So I suggest instead to get a wider range of grits. I purchased a set of sandpaper rounds ranging from 80(coarse) to 220(fine). I bought Mestool brand 125 mm 8 holes paper P-58 gold sandpaper Velcro.Overall, the sander worked really well. It nicely finished my table and I was really pleased with the results.

Tool reviews are tough, it is rare that anyone leaving a review actually writes about how they used the tool, making it hard to understand if people are using the tool reasonably or for its intended purpose. Especially when they're leaving a bad review.For me, I'm using this to sand wood surfaces in preparation for finishing/painting. I'm not shaping the wood with this at all. I'm removing tool marks and going through the grits to bring it up to a perfectly level and smooth surface. I also let the tool do the work for me. I guide it, I don't force it into my project with "elbow grease".For that purpose this has worked great. It is easy to control. If being super picky, when using grits below 180 this sander does grab the wood a bit more and it takes more effort to control, but I wouldn't say it is hard to do so. Above 180 it is beyond easy to control, taking two fingers to guide it effortlessly.The Hook and Loop works well for me and my sandpaper. It stays put, period. The dust collection works well but not fantastic. The bag comes off and goes back on super easy.The only thing I don't like is this sander doesn't have a "soft start", it just fires up full blast right away. Not a deal breaker for me, especially with it being balanced and light weight. But it would be super nice.The only other thing I wish was a wider RPM range. 4,000-12,000rpm would be fantastic to have rather than its 8,000 to 12,000rpm. But oh well. I'm happy with my purchase!

Most important for any tool is how it performs its primary function and this sander does its job perfectly.This sander vibrates and rotates leaving no discernable scratches.I have used this sander many continuous hours when sanding my house this past summer. I overheated, but it did not. This sander is very ergonomic and a pleasure to use.The velcro style hooks that accept the sanding disks hold those paper disks very firmly.The disk plate and sanding disks have holes for pulling away the sanded dust. This dust exits via a tube that blows the dust in one direction. This was not a problem for me because I was outdoors and the breeze spread the dust. Indoors, however, with the dust catcher bag attached is a problem. If you are using a course paper it will eject a lot of dust and fill the bag quickly. I bought an adapter for my shop vacuum. The combination of the sander and vacuum are a bit loud, but very little dust escapes into the room's air.Buy it; you will like it.

This is an amazing sander. The connectors fit a shop vac perfectly and it works really good.
