    Nice compact sander for short duration small projects.

    Nice compact little sander, although it's battery powered it can handle most short duration projects. I used a 4 amp hour battery and smoothed out the bottom of a cast iron pan restoration. The battery lasted about 20-30 mins. of continuous use along with and additional 4 amp hour battery for another 20-30 min. Fortunately I have a cordless set with four 4AH batteries. As stated above, it's good for short duration projects. Any long term project, get a corded sander.

    Not easy to handle.

    Not easy to handle. I have tried 2 of these just to make sure it wasn't a bearing issue. This sander is hard to control, tends to jump, grab and hop. I have the corded Ridgid 5inch and it has worked great, replaced bearings frequently but easy to handle. This one is hard to grip comfortably, and goes through battery fairly quick.

  • Design and Power

    The Ridgid orbital sander for use with their 18v batteries is designed well and has shown to be durable so far. The grip is a little hefty (to make room to attach the battery) so one’s hand might tire after prolonged use. A worthy trade off for the portability and versatility that comes with cordless. The power is impressive and the sanding pads are readily available from multiple manufacturers.

  • Good quality at afforable price

    Been using this tools for couple of weeks. Really love it. No issue so far, regarding to the machine. The only thing I find it weird is the position of switch button, which sometimes hard to reach when holding using left hand. Overall it is a great product!

  • Very Powerful Sander by Ridgid

    This sander performs well for projects like wooden cabinets and cabinet doors. Has the adequate RPMs to get the work done quickly. You will go through a lot of sanding paper so be sure to have enough in stock to complete your do it yourself project. The handle (top portion) is difficult to palm at times, but not a problem. I wish it had a handle to keep your sanding at a level. Good unit to have though!

  • Works great, however drains 2.0 battery quickly.

    Perfect for using where a cord won't reach. It came in very handy working on a tree house last month. Caution: It will gobble up batteries in about 15 minutes -- bring a spare.

    It is very easy to handle and help to do an excellent job. I recommend it to anyone, although I am not a carpenter. Please excuse my English.
