I've done all sorts of grinding and polishing wheels on it, and ran it through it's paces. I would buy another one for this price, if I needed another one. This WEN variable speed runs fantastic .A must have for the price.

The styrofoam packaging was completly broken in the area where grinder is located. this might explain why the plexiglass shield are in a different area. Luckily there was no damage to the grinder, however I could see now not all might make it as well as mind did.Bolted to a WEN 4288 Cast Iron Bench Grinder Pedestal Stand with Water Pot (5 star stand). The grinder has two centered bolts on opposite sides, and rubber cushion feet. When bolting down i only snugged it slightly to help prevent vibration.Lamp does not include bulb, I installed a 40w LED bulb. Lamp power is independent from grinder power, this is a nice feature. Assembly is simple and straight forward.First use: very slow to spin up to speed, this is due to its lower amp rating. Once up to speed I used the coarse wheel to re-edge an older screw driver. The spark arresting guards work ok, but still lots of sparks got by. Typical in my opinion. Did not notice any bogging or speed issues, but that was a very light job. Moderate to high vibration was noticeable, causing the lamp to shake and change position. The Wen stand was rock solid during the grinding.Second use: 20" mower blade sharpening. I had to move the Plexiglas shields up and out of the way to allow moving the blade around. Using the coarse wheel, there was slight bogging/slowing of the wheel, but seemed to have spun back up in 2-3 seconds or so. Once I used moderate force, I found the little $45 grinder struggling. Switched to the fine grit wheel, and experienced the same speed fluctuation.Overall thoughts.... For the price its a solid purchase for the light light duty home garage. I purchased a wire wheel for rust/paint removal, I will update this with my experience. I own a few WEN devices, and so far they are better than HF tools, but not professional grade. Not that I expected profession grade at a bargain price I would highly recommend this to the basic weekend garage warrior doing light work on metal items. i am content with my purchase, and I give it a solid 4 stars. I took a star away because of the vibration and the loose lamp goose-neck. This is the better of the bargain priced grinders out there!

This WEN grinder spins @ 3450 RPM and comes with 2 different wheels - 60 grit & 36 grit. Sharpening mower blades can be tricky if you don't take your time.

If you buy tools like I do, where you buy them with the intention to use your tools every now and then and not everyday and don't want to pay an arm and a leg for tools, than this is a pretty good grinder. It works well right out of the box and does the job it is supposed to do, grind stuff. The light attachment is also a pretty nice little add-on but if you do not have a vibration resistant stand for this to go on, the light will vibrate away from where you set it. The size of this grinder will not take over your workbench and it has an acceptable noise level though I would advise wearing proper protective equipment including hearing protection as well as an apron.....ah see you did not think of that. An apron is a weird but useful piece of ppe that has recently gone dark. An apron will protect you from flying metal shavings and you won't know you need it till it is too late.

I got my bench grinder a few days ago but have already logged quite a few hours into it given the current quarantine situation. I am a hobbyist of sorts and hand make all my pieces, work primarily with metal, and make various kinds of EDC multi tools and blades. Despite having various pieces of machinery that "could" get the job done (I currently have the Wen Belt & Disc Grinder, a 14" Drill Press, the Work Sharp Ken Onion Edition Knife and Tool Sharpener/Grinder, and the Dremel 4000 with all the attachments available), with out this new Bench Grinder it took much longer and was much more difficult when doing any job especially when trying to be as precise. It makes aggressive removal of material (any metals so far) a breeze , and on the opposite side of the spectrum it handles any buffing and the softest of your heavy duty polishing needs with ease. A must have tool in your arsenal!. Incredible value as it is very affordable and comes with the 36 and 60 grit wheel. I have multiple Pieces of machinery by Wen and have not been disappointed yet. Well made, solid pieces of machinery.

ME GUSTO EL PRODUCTO SOLO QUE HACE UN ZUMBIDO CUANDO BAJA LA VELOCIDAD PERO AL SUBIRLA AL MÃXIMO DESAPARECE, CREO QUE ES POR EL MISMO POTENCIOMETRO QUE ES EL AJUSTE DE VELOCIDAD VARIABLE, PERO NADA QUE AFECTE EL FUNCIONAMIENTO, Y DENTRO DE TODO ESTO A LA VEZ ES SILENCIOSO Y MUY BONITO, ESTOY SATISFECHO!LA VERDAD ME ENCANTO Y ESTETICAMENTE LE DOY UN 10!SOLO EN RUIDO LE PUSE 4 ESTRELLAS POR ESE PEQUEÑÑO ZUMBIDO PERO ES DE BAJO RUIDO!
