Ponceuse orbitale, 20V MAX XR, sans balai, sans fil, vitesse variable, 5"

I love this sander and use it frequently on alot of jobs. The only setback I have is when putting a higher AH Battery it then makes the sander a little bulky and heavier to use. I really don't mind it much but thats just an obvious added setback if you can call it a setback really. I imagine for an elderly person or younger person that it might pose an issue with a bigger battery but other than that I love it and live the variable speed selection. I actually have 3 of these sanders and am satisfied with the purchase and price of each one. I would definitely recommend to anyone in need of a durable solid sander that performs well.

I hate the sander. The weird angle of the dust bag and the battery makes it awkward to use or store. What I really hate about it is that there is no baffle or anything to keep the dust in the bag. Every time you move this thing, it leaves a pile of dust. Since this is a cordless tool, you can bet it will be moved around from job to job, leaving a mess everywhere. Makita and Bosch both put baffles on their dust bags to keep the dust in. Also, the non-standard dust port means it doesn't fit onto vacuum hoses the way that Makita, Bosch and Metabo/Hitachi do. It sands fine, but I wish I had bought a Makita.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I dont know what it is about Dewalt sanders, but I always come back for their orbitals (course and cordless). As I start to replace my older tools I've give away from just color matching and focus on now what I feel preforms best. Dewalt sanders just feel ergonomically superior, in addition to have the power no matter what does your on to detail beautiful wood. I've tried others and many feel too built for one hand, or feel like the orbiting patterns are useless. I haven't bought any other brand in the last 15 years, and plan on keeping this habit. Thank you Dewalt for creating such a useful, well developed tool!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Over time have encountered situations where a sander would make a situation easier and got this a few weeks back. Used it three different times and it does well. Also got the battery separately that fits it. Will last slightly over 30 minutes on a full charge at full speed. I like it and hope it last for years to come. The only situation maybe to work on would be the switch. Apperantly I didn’t have cut off well and a few seconds after I set down and let loose of it it took off running. It swerved to the left then to the right I tackled it haha just kidding. But it did start up running after I sit it down. :)

There's nothing like a cordless sander, and an orbital one at that. This sander is extremely effective and easy to use. It includes a wheel to adjust the speed of the rotating disc, which can come in handy for certain types of woods or desired sanding speed. I can't stress enough how crucial it is for a sander to be cordless. You often need to get into odd positions, and have to move the unit back and forth in long strokes. A cord only makes these scenarios annoying and/or difficult to accomplish. There's also a nice little removable dust bag, so there's virtually no dust to choke on coming from this sander. And it's very easy to click off and empty. Overall, highly-recommended, very easy-to-use sander.

This little guy has some serious power. I have all sorts of DeWalt batteries and even on the 1.3ah this thing is great. I can use it for long periods of time without fatigue. As long as you go up in the grits you can get your projects baby smooth. The bigger batteries make it a little awkward trying to get in tight spaces but the 3-4ah are perfect. I really enjoy the speed selection. The dust port collects pretty well on its own. I just got an attachment for my shop vac so I’m excited to try that out. Over all this is a great cordless sander. I have recommended it you everyone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this product pretty much right after it hit shelves about a year or more ago. So far this sander not only has held up phenomenally, but has exceeded my expectations for a cordless tool. Even on just a 2 amp hour battery the sander performs like a corded product and blows through wood and paint, especially with a diablo sanding pad. I've used this on multiple trim and furniture projects and couldn't be happier. The onboard dust collection works well too, but you'll want to hook up a vacuum to this baby because it will make dust fast and fill up the dust bag faster.

Super handy! This thing is great for small sanding jobs and touch up work. Those ones where the job would be done before you can go grab an extension cord and plug it in. I'm not sure I would use it for larger sanding jobs lasting +10 minutes, that is what the corded ones are for. It's not that I don't think this can do it..... its just I wouldn't want to have to deal with it slowing down just before the battery dies and having to change the battery. I've found the 3Ah to work best for me. The 4Ah and above starts to get bulky. By the time you get to the 6Ah the battery is as big as the sander and the tool is now twice as heavy. Like I mentioned already; if I'm gonna be sanding more than 10 minutes, I will break out with the corded sanders.
