BOSCH ROS20VSC Palm Sander - 2.5 Amp 5 Inches Corded Variable Speed Random Orbital Sander/Polisher Kit with Dust Collector and Soft Carrying Bag, Blue

Best hand held sander I own. I am a woodworker and loaned out my other bosch sander never to be returned. I have tried multiple brands and none can compare to the bosch. It is worth the money, solid construction and gets the job done. Easy to use, not too heavy and a good value. I had my other one for YEARS before I (stupidly) lent it out. I am a bosch fan due to the quality of their products. If you need a good, solid sander- get this one.

It was perfect match for my project. Sanding and polishing.

Worth the purchase! Definitely nice and useful. Perfect for a beginner such as myself. I just wish there were more sandpaper discs! 😄

I really like the bag this sander comes with. It’s the perfect size to keep everything together: extra discs, the instructions, and the tool itself. Makes storage and transport easy, which I appreciate.Cleaning the filter is also pretty simple. I was able to knock out the finer wood dust quickly, and I’m glad that dust is actually getting pulled in rather than floating around in the air or making a mess. Definitely a plus there.That said, I expected the sander to be a little easier to use. There’s a noticeable learning curve. I’ve had trouble figuring out which speed to use, and honestly, I usually just turn it all the way up and try to control things with a light touch rather than dialing in a specific setting. I’m sure more advanced users could fine-tune it based on the disc, speed, and material, but that’s a bit much for me.Overall, it gets the job done and I’ll keep using it, but it’s not the most intuitive tool out of the box. Knocking one star off for ease of use.

works amazing !

Muy buen producto. Excelente atención.

I got tired of the dust canister popping off my yellow orbital sander. After reading reviews I chose this one, as I’ve had great success with other Makita tools. The canister stays in this sander, there’s less vibration, and y try o me it was well worth the cost.

I bought my sander in 2016 and have used it *a ton* on wood working and metal working projects. This spring I even used it to sand the hull of my fiberglass sailboat. It simply is one of the best thought-out power tools in my arsenal.It collects dust *very* well with its included exhaust filter. In eight years I've never had to replace the filter, I just use my shop vac to suck out all the dust and debris from the filter, and away we go! That said, it also works well in collecting dust when joined with a shop vac; several days of continuous use on the sailboat proved that.What tipped me over to finally write a review is that the pad finally wore out. After eight years the sander wouldn't hold onto sanding pads any longer. But... replacement pads are available! Cheap! On Amazon! My recommendation; buy two replacement pads. Who knows if they'll still be available in 2032?While I'm at it I think that I'll search for a replacement filter, just in case...
