was impressed with noise level of the sander, quite a bit less than the previous makita sander i owned. plenty of power for the wood working that i do. really like the trigger switch more than the on off button if sander slips out of hand it stops!! how many times has previous sander slipped out of hand and went cross the bench. dust collection wasn't bad with attached bag, i'm sure would be better with vacuum hose attached. price,quality am very well satisfied!! would sure recommend this sander. vr k whitson.

Great tool, but!!! This item was sold as a US standard 115 volts. It is not . it is the European 230 volts. Luckily I have a 230v receptacle in my garage. If I were to need it somewhere else, it would not work. When I asked about the voltage, I was told , it needed a new plug, that's all.

I have used a Porter Cable Random orbit sander for 20 years in my wood shop. The bearings finally gave out. Thought I'd try the Makita, as most of my cordless tools are Makita. WOW, just WOW. This sander blows the doors off my old porter cable. Its more powerful, easier to hold, and does a far better jog collecting the dust. Wish I'd bought sooner.

Just because something say refurbished doesn't mean your buying junk, it was sent back to an authorized service center and made like new again! No vibration, adjustable handle, adjustable speed, comfortable trigger, nice easy startup. I'm really happy!

Already used it to sand down drywall and it's smooth operation made it easy to get a smooth finish ready to paint. It attached directly to my shop vac and dust in the house was diminished to practically nothing. Totally awesome sander and I highly recommend it.

Variable speed allows for polishing options - I have refinished two small kitchen tables with it now and it works great - runs as vibration free as could be expected- Makita is always a great choice - this is a refurbished unit but looks virtually unused - came with all paperwork and warranty - very pleased with this tool

These Makita sanders last longer and work better than any other brand. And I have tried all the major brands

Much quieter and smoother running than the B and D that wore out. The detachable handle is a nice feature. I believe I would buy this one again.

Nice sander that should be as durable as my other Makita tools, which I have had for years, but only time will tell.
