great sander but I couldn't get a quarter sheet onto it. I have to cut a standard sheet into three and then a sliver off on one edge etc to get the sandpaper to fit and hold on properly. So I might as well have bought the third sheet sander. Apart from that it seems to be up to usual makita quality . Very happy with the performance and power. Good thick lead on it and the switch works easily during operation. Suction works well but the bag gets full or clogged very quickly so I connect a hoover to it for any decent jobs which is fine.

Initially dubious about it being square, rather than triangular (as previous two were). However, the gift of being able to use standard sheets of sand/wet/dry paper, slit into quarters, makes it SO much more economical to use! Also means no more infuriating 'good sheets falling off' as the velcro fails, as this one clamps the quarter sheets on (though it also takes the velcro sheets). It even came with what I thought was only a stand, but is actually a hole cutter and stand, so dust is sucked up through the holes in the paper, through the machine into the dustbag, (the other reason I bought this machine). The only downside, is that sometimes this bag comes off the machine for no apparent reason, hence 4* instead of 5*'s. If the bag stayed put (it's not being knocked off, I paid attention to that), then the machine would be 5*+. Would I buy this one again? Definitely!Read full review

I guess it could be the name but having bought a really poor router recently it has been good to get my hands on something that doesn't feel as though it won't fail at the first outing.

As an antique furniture restorer I have had many of these over the years, I've tried others but always come back to my trusted Makita. The only negative is, and always has been, the very short length of mains cable it come with. Very inconvenient to be sanding with an extersion lead/socket trailing behind you!! Otherwise a brilliant, effective and reliable ¼ sheet sander. Much more economical on sandpaper too as you can buy a roll standard stuff and cut pieces to size yourself.

Quality item sits nicely in your hand and the vibration isn't too uncomfortable. Not overly noisy and comes with a hole punch plate for normal paper. Good value for the money.
