Top quality and versatile belt sander with variable speed. I also like the longer length of the electrical cord.

Very little dust. To get best results slow adjustable speed down and use 120 grit. Superb Makita product as always.

Aggressive sander that’s powerful yet easy to handle. Connected it to my vacuum for great dust collection. Uses same hose as my Makita orbital sander.

This sander is fantastic!!! It makes jobs easy! It has many great features and an overall feel of refinement: It is powerful, yet feels light and balanced in hand. The belt somehow stays centered and in position. I don’t have to wrestle with this tool to get a job done. It is just totally superior to my previous sander (Porter Cable) and overall a pleasure to own and use.

So far so good. It’s replacing a 30 year old sander that died.

Everything about this belt sander works very well, except the way the dust bag attaches itself. When working vertically with it the dust bag has a tendency to come off. If it wasn’t for this problem, I would have given it an excellent rating.
