Generally very happy with this sander. Having a cordless sander makes such a difference for on-site work especially at heights. This sander does the job as well as most mains powered units and batteries last well. I find when you only have one hand free the two button switch a slight nuisance. It has three speed settings can’t imagine why you would need slow speed. Solid reliable as usual from Makita, although a little pricey.

Surprisingly powerful, it is not possible to stop the sander no matter how much pressure you apply The dust bag is very effective in horizontal work but less so when sanding overhead It’s actually larger and heavier than it looks and the vibration isn’t so bad but I think this depends upon application I use 4ah batteries an it runs for long enough on these.

Like all cordless sanders it eats battery power so suggest at least a 4Ah battery required. Never going to be as powerful as corded sander but for finishing it’s excellent and handy without trailing flex everywhere. Connected to the shop vac dust control is pretty good.

Nice & convenient orbital sander that can double as a car polisher when u buy the 5” polishing pads that use Velcro to stick on! Used it to safely sand car headlights & clear coat - not the most powerful but it’s a handy piece of kit to go with your Makita batteries 👍

There are many competing brands for these sanders. This is the one to go for, you get a well balanced machine with the usual Makita quality. Big plus for me is the transit case. This means the sander is properly protected and kept with all the spare pads.
