It took me a while to figure out why the sander was stopping while sanding….Then it clicked…broken wire in the cord. Took it back. Probably just a freaky thing to happen. Otherwise when it was working it seemed to do ok. Didn’t use it long enough to really know

Repainting my sons place so pick this sander up for the job. Have had a couple others over years and found this to be the best of the bunch. Dust collector work really well compared to other. Fits good in the hand for operating. Reasonable quite. Would recommend it for sure.

I have only used this tool for approximately three hours. It is easy to control and to sand in positions other than horizontal. Vibration is minimal. Dust collection is satisfactory. Power is good.

The clamps are sturdy, less noise than other brands i tried, it collects dust effectively and it’s easy to empty. Until now i am very satisfied with the performance.

I really like the way this sander feels and performs. It fits my hand perfectly so I can work with it a long time without cramping or feeling like it needs to be put down. The motor is extremely competant and strong. The switch is very positive. I haven’t had any trouble with the dust collector and it adds value but only works about as well as you’d think.

I just purchased this sander for work on the exterior of my house, built in 1955. I am sanding off multiple layers of poorly applied paint on 6″ redwood over-lap siding. I use the sander on the horizontal V-grooves between the boards, and it does a great job. I’m using 60 grit, and I change the paper frequently. I am also using an older Bosch 3725 DEVS for the flat surfaces, and the prep project is going much faster than I expected. Bosch sanders are great.

I own two Bosch routers, one half-sheet sander and this 1/4-sheet sander. I have owned 1/4-sheet sanders before. They always lost grip on the paper. This sander, like the 1/2-sheet sander, never looses grip on the sand paper. The dust-protection works well but, I will be purchasing the adaptor for my shop vac.

Sander works great. Easy on the hands but still manages to sand wood so great that you have to watch the pressure applied.

Good sander

Quite handy little pal sander. The problem I am having with it is that the clips that hold the paper in place keep giving way and the paper comes loose. Do not know if that is a defect in my sander or a sandpaper problem. Will have to contact bosch about it.

This is a solid machine,. It has low vibration when in operation, and it is stable in the hand.

After purchasing two Makita sanders in store and having them fail, I decided to order the Bosch. The Bosch is better built and has a metal sanding base. The Bosch has low vibration and Is comfortably to use for extended periods. The sandpaper clamps are durable and hold the paper tight.

Easy to use. Does a good job of finish sanding. I use my shop vac and I was surprised how well it controlled the dust.
Jon Nienow (verified owner) –
it works fine. it’s simple machine. the biggest problem is the wire bails that grip the sandpaper. one bent very easily. i had to bend it back with some pliers so now i watch it closely to be sure the paper doesn’t come loose.

Easy to use, comfortable on hands, vacuum needs improvement.

Quiet and low vibration and easy sanding sheet attachment design. Dust colllection good with just very small dust escaping…vacuum attached would be best. Totally satisfied with product.
