I am a metal sculptor and this is my 3rd Makita grinder, my second paddle grinder. I pretty much onñy use it locked on, but the simple switched Makita grinder has a stubborn dwitch so this is easier.

I’ve been a makita fan my entire life and to this day have never had a quality issue with one. I rated 3 stars because this is the first makita ive been disappointed with. Not because of the quality but because of the trigger design on this model. Since the trigger button is almost the entire length of the tool, theres nowhere to firmly grip without engaging the trigger, and this can be a real problem in tight spaces (by that i mean terrifying), which i do have an occasional need for. It is a powerful tool and with the size of the trigger it can unexpectedly take off when you bump into something. Then two seconds later when you need to apply power the safety will fight you. In open workspaces, which is probably how most people use it, it works completely fine, in fact easier than other grinders. I bought this to replace my cheap harbor freight grinder, but ive had to hang onto it for situations that need a more trustable trigger. I wish they made this tool with a simple trigger like the 7” models.

I am a big Makita fan; this tool is another reason why. Powerful, lightweight and easy to control, feels solid. Spindle lock is well placed making disc changes easy.

I needed to remove deck nails quickly. The Mikita angle grinder did it quickly.

The Makitas work well for my company and the techs who use them prefer them over the other brands that we have purchased in the past.

Used it to cut out some cast iron pipe under the house and it didn’t disappoint. Happy with the purchase, would recommend this grinder.

I wasn’t sure if I would like the paddle switch but it’s not that bad. I do not care for the way the lock on switch is though. It’s difficult to lock and once it is locked a little bump of the paddle and it unlocks. Wish it came with a case but otherwise powerful enough for what I do and is comfortable to hold.
