wish it had an attachment that allowed a vacuum attachment. Otherwise a great tool.

Replace a HF DA Sander and this has more power but seems a little heavier. Boat came out beautiful with a polish and wax. Getting used to the on/off button at the top of the machine.

Overall, easy to use. Only downside was the lowest select speed wasn’t low enough for proper boat compounding. Still, worked.

I’ve purchased Porter Cable products in the past and they always performed as I expected. This one does as well. I like the variable speed and the compact size.I don’t have any dislikes as I’ve only owned it a few days.

When I got it it had major swirl marks scratches like someone washed it with a green scratchy pad. I found out the clear coat was real swift. Certain microfiber rags would scratch it. I’ve had this for about a year and it works like a champ. Definitely recommend to any diy’r this is all you’ll need

Great product, I would recommend this product to anyone looking for anyone looking for an effective orbital buffer for a great price compared to others. The only drawback is that the product comes with a polishing pad attachment, but does not come with the hook and loop attachment.

Well made. Easy to use paper attachment. A bit heavy… Which is good and bad. On flat surfaces where gravity is your friend it’s great… Sanding off paint lines on a wall not so much. I’ve used 40 grit to 180 and in between, with Excellent results. Quick material removal. Finer grits give nice finish.

Straight forward product. Excellent at polishing final finish on furniture or autos and great at sanding. No complaints yet. You might want to buy a hook and loop base pad for attaching buffer pads if you polish a lot.
