I used to think I was really good at skim coating. I’ve had guys come behind me and paint cause they thought it was already sanded. Now I can see every tiny flaw bright as day because of the light. It is a perfectly designed light to show all your flaws. It will hurt your feelingsThe suction power is amazing. When in ceiling mode you can actually let go and it will be stuck to the ceiling.The dust collection is amazing as well. Paired with the Festool DC 36 the auto off and on is pretty cool. I have confidence sanding over any furniture and the life without having to worry about a mess.Learn the tool. It gets better as you get better. Find what speed, settings and grit work best for you and. Practice your motions. Like I said the tool improves as you improve.Not very helpful for sanding corners but I think that’s pretty obvious. Edges aren’t terrible the vacuum edge gets in the way sometimes but there is no other way to design it to eliminate this. I will take the excellent suction over this minor inconvenience.

I'm a contractor and I do a fair about of drywall work in conjunction with remodels. I got this sander when I had to do a couple of larger rooms in occupied spaces. It's a bit heavy, especially for ceilings, but it's fast and CLEAN! I really like it.

This is one of the Festool products I never thought I would own but after buying a ct36ac last year and having a drywall repair on my kitchen ceiling as well as some up coming wall paper removals I figured it was worth the cost. I tackled the ceiling repair first and wow! Just a pleasure to use. It truly makes drywall sanding fun. The amount of suction that the head has is incredible, it can hold its own weight with out support against the ceiling! My repair was about 30-40 square feet, 2 coats of mud and 3 sandings. I could not find one speck of dust anywhere.

Works very well. On the slow side of sanders but the lighting shows you every imperfection and allows you to sand work areas cleaner and more perfect.

The backer pad for this product is very poorly designed.As you can see, the holes the plastic screws go in break very easily and are flimsy. I put an intermediate pad in between the backer pad and the sand paper to create some give when sanding against beadboard walls. When I turned the machine on with the intermediate pad it was too heavy and the spinning forces ripped the backer pad right off.As interior wall finishing is the primary reason I purchased this product it is disappointing I cannot use it with an intermediate foam pad.The tool itself is up to Festool standards but the backer pad being so flimsy means what you can do with the tool is limited. Would return it if I could.

Works well. Love the LED light.Low dust.Inner orange pleated filter clogs easily and must be cleaned often.Plug to machine does not make great contact always.Thinking of cutting it off and installing new plug.
