This sander is great and the Airgaurd technology works perfectly. I love that I can sand whole projects and not have to worry about sawdust blowing everywhere. I would definitely recommend this tool to everyone. I had a little issue with registering for the LSA, but after calling customer support, it was fixed immediately and my LSA was active.

Got this for my son who is a commercial carpenter. He is very pleased with this product and its performance. He has other Ridge tools and knows their quality and performance.

I recently bought this sander. I have actually burnt up 3 orbital disc sanders in the past 2 years. I needed yet another one and I found Rigid’s Orbital Sander. The hook & loop (disk pad) is far better constructed than the disk pads of the 3 previous sanders. The hooks are smaller (more of them) and they grab the sanding disks much more securely. Larger hooks tend to wear out faster.The variable speed adjustment is “tucked” away which prevents ones hand from accidentally hitting it and causing a speed change. The on-off button is also “tucked” away and it doubles as an “always” on switch without the need of a separate locking button (less parts to fail).Finally, the best feature is that the dust collection “vacuum” design actually vacuums the dust from your work area. You can even raise the sander about .25 inches from your work surface and the sander will vacuum the dust up and into the dust bag. The dust collector outlet also permits one to connect an active vacuum system to the sander.I highly recommend this sander!!!!!!

Smooth as a newborn baby’s backside. This orbital sander does the best job ever.

Sander works excellent less mess and less dust. Using to sand automotive paint. Sander stays cool doesn’t seem to be overheating. Seems like the normal rigid line probably gonna be very durable. Only time will tell. But my experience most rigid tool seem to hold up very well and I pretty much can do a pretty good torture test on them.

Excellent sander with minimal vibrations and easy to handle.
Everett Von (verified owner) –
It was very easy to use. It takes a number of different sand grades. Plus it comes with a sturdy case.

It did the job perfectly.The sander had plenty to power.

I’ll preface this by saying this is my first time owning or using a power sander, and I’ve only had this one a few days. But so far it seems pretty great. It’s not overly heavy, it’s easy to hold and use the controls with gloves on, and connecting it to my shop vac couldn’t have been easier. And when connected to a shop vac, the dust collection works incredibly well. It’s also worth noting the case it comes with, unlike most included cases that are 1 millimeter bigger than the tool and nearly impossible to get it back in, easily holds the tool & many extra sandpaper discs. My only complaint is that the built in power cord is only about 5ft long. Nothing an extension cord can’t easily fix, but I’d prefer a little more length to work with before I’m pulling on the plug / extension connection.

Not as fast as the older one but I like it. Low vibration great fit collection when used with a ridgid vac. I think for the lower side of price you could do a lot worse of a tool.

Excellent tool – easy to use
Woodrow Hill (verified owner) –
This tool has a soft start, which is easy on what your sanding. The dust collection system works great! Along with the Ridgid lifetime warranty this sander is the best sander I’ve owned.
Ward Ullrich (verified owner) –
Haven’t used it a whole lot yet but so far it works fine and has a nice well-built feel to it.
Lurline Johnson (verified owner) –
replaced another well-known brand. It works so much better and quicker (using same style/brand of sanding disks). this was a worthy replacement. I do need to figure out how to connect to a vac to improve dust collection.
Rachael Sanford (verified owner) –
Good product also very useful

Just finished hand sanding a 12×12 foot oak floor that is 102 years old with the Ridgid random orbital sander. Went through three grits of sandpaper, meaning three passes on the floor. Sander held up well. I attached it to a shot vac and had very little dust to contend with. I recommend this sander.
