Great sander, beyond great. Sanding fascia boards on 2nd story when the sander got away from me ( ( so powerful ) the sander hit a cement tile on the first story broke it and continued on to the cement sidewalk below. Small nick on rubber pad was the only thing wrong. Sander is still working great. I’m not surprised it’s a MAKITA. I have several power tools from Makita and will continue to buy MORE !

This Sander is a classic, there’s nothing like it: the wait, the RPM’s are perfect. They don’t last forever but you’ll forget the price you pay for by then.. Get one!

Lightweight but powerful. Easy to change disk and operate . Strips paint off wood siding easily . Put a larger 6″ sanding disk on it and you can easily feather your work.

Good for exterior sanding only, sander design like a drill give good balance in your hand and less fatigue ,weight 2.6lbs. Only one speed, sanding disc break easy, 5″ sand paper hard to find at other hardware store, online order from Home Depot takes more than two weeks.I saw lots of painter using this Makita drill sander, sanding with one hand up in the ladder, price $99 is high. Less arm fatigue is the main reason I bought it.

Great item! Needed a good sander, and GV 5000 is no longer available. Did not think they could make one better, but I was wrong! This one is quieter, and smoother!

The best sander there is for getting the job done quick. Just keep it moving quickly or you will gouge the wood. I have used these sanders for years and they are the best!

This disc sander is superb and did the job we needed it for. I just wish I could get the 3M black nylon paint stripping pads for it.

Used for exterior paint stripping. On one the button that allows you run the sander without holding the trigger stopped working. On another the hex head screw that holds the disc jammed? This was in a one week time span.
