5.0 out of 5 stars Very well made belt/disc sander.
Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2020
Verified Purchase
Read a lot of reviews for different belt sanders before choosing this one. I am replacing my older Craftsman that you can’t get parts for anymore. The motor was still good but had other issues. This one was more expensive than others and had pros and cons for reviews like they all do. The deciding factor for me was the low profile compared to others. The only thing I didn’t like was that the on-off switch was (for me) on the backside (wrong side). What I did (I know, it voids the warranty) was I partially removed the cover, it wasn’t easy but I was determined, and I moved the switch to the opposite side. It was a tight fit...but it fit. This unit works very well. It’s well made and pretty darn quiet for a belt sander. I don’t have any problems with belt tracking and I’ve used it quite a bit. I also find it has plenty of power and it hasn’t bogged down yet with the amount of pressure needed to take off a good amount of wood in the process of sanding. It’s 5 stars for me and it’s not my first sander.

Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2021
Size: 4x36in Belt & 6in DiscVerified Purchase
I love this sander. This is my first tabletop sander. I use it for small hobby wood working. There is only one issue with it.

First of all, this thing is much more powerful than my craftsman handheld belt sander. I mean, like noticeably aggressive. This thing is a beast.

The dust collection is really nice compared to my old handheld. I just have it hooked up to a small shop vac.

Both the disc and the belt part are great, no complaints. If anything I have to get used to how quickly it sands. Both parts run smooth.

Most of the assembly went really well. 97% of the build quality is very good. The only weak spot is the table. And not even the table itself, it's just as flat and square as my level is. But the point at which the table attaches to the sander is low quality. The table will wobble. It will move. It isn't square against the disc unless you bend it. It only took me about 30 minutes and a couple lock washers and some shimming with painters tape to get it mostly square and level against the body of the sander. But it doesn't stay. So then you have to keep releveling it every couple days. And what is so unusual is that the rest of the machine is really solid.

Size: 4x36in Belt & 6in DiscVerified Purchase
I got this belt sander because after watching a ton of reviews on youTube all the experts were of one opinion the Harbor Freight alternative is a piece of junk and that this one rocked. They were right.

I'm going to use mine for guitar neck shaping and fingerboard radiusing. Both are processes that I have spent weeks of my life doing by hand and I thought it was time to speed up a bit. I have taken everything off mine except the main belt. The direct drive is really strong. I might upgrade the switch to proper industrial but is about average robustness these days.

Very pleased so far.

Bought it to help finish metal instead of using bench grinder. Works good for jobs I do. Good power, gets up to speed very quickly. Bought assorted grit belts for different applications. Tables only have one support which is the angle adjusting knob. The fence is a poorly made plastic piece of junk. The table to machine fit is typical China -if it fits, close enough. You have to use an angle gauge to adjust either table properly the table move around to much when tightening otherwise. But, it works fine for my application. Also, it has plastic belt rollers which I expected to be aluminum for the cost of unit.

Verified Purchase
This belt sander seems to be the favorite among wood workers, which was the reason i chose to buy. However, after opening the box i was pretty upset and disappointed.

First, the box was in bad shape from shipping and when I unboxed I found the brand new sander loosely moving around between both packing foams. I didnt think much of it but after inspecting it, I found a large gouge on the top of the motor housing and a few minor ones on the disk sander plate. Either i recieved a refurbished sander, one that was returned by someone else, or the poor packing caused the damages?

Second, as i was reading the instructions. I noticed that I was missing some important parts. I was missing both the table lock nut and washer that secures the work table to the disk sander. I was also missing 2 hex bolts, 5mm hex wrench and more importantly the belt backstop, which is a key safety measure.

After extensive research, I found bucktool had the best reviews compared to other brands at the same price. However, i was pretty disappointed to recieve my new order in this condition.

UPDATE!

Customer service was quick to resolve the issues. Thanks!

After several projects this thing works like a beast. I absolutely love the direct drive. It works even better than i had expected. I use it for small and large projects. I have even made fishing lures. Great product!
