Used an octane battery did not have the run time I believed it would

Plenty of power in a battery powered sander. Completed a bunch of sanding before it went through my batteries. Well worth the extra money to ditch the corded version.

Very satisfied with performance and versatility.

Sands very well but the dust still goes everywhere.

Good weight. Good power

Biggest con is the weight and poor ergonomics. We always buy Ridgid tools for the convenience of the switchable batteries, however, the battery makes this sander very heavy. The fact that it’s cordless is nice but when you have a large job to do, it’s a workout! The overall performance is great!
