20V MAX Orbital Sander, Tool Only (DCW210B)

Easy to use, some people complain about the power button and speed knob being in the way, I never had an issue. The vacuum filter is great, it picks up most of the dust. I heard some people complain the unit is too high off whatever you are sanding, not sure why they claim it's an issue, I don't have an issue with that at all. Battery life depends on what you are using, but I recommend having 3 batteries if you have large jobs so you can continuously charge them. It eats through pads fairly quickly. No vibration, and stops quickly once you turn it off. The speed adjustment is great as well. Great value for what you pay.

The DEWALT 20V MAX orbital sander is an excellent tool. It has plenty of power for removing material quickly, but it also runs smooth enough for fine finishing work. The variable speed control is great for dialing it in depending on the job. I love not having to deal with a cord — being cordless makes it easy to move around the shop or job site without fighting extension cords. Battery life is solid, especially with a 4Ah or 5Ah battery, and it swaps discs quickly with the hook-and-loop pad. Dust collection works well when hooked to a vac, and vibration is minimal compared to cheaper sanders. It feels durable and well balanced in the hand. If you’re already in the DeWalt 20V system, this is a no-brainer. Great performance, great build quality, and well worth the money.

I received it timely and so far it has work really well. Used for carpentry work and now body work for my vehicle.

Very happy with this tool. Works perfect and leaves a very nice finish, would buy again

I refinish hardwood and as I wouldn’t use this to actually sand, I do use it to abrade between coats of finish around the perimeter. Happy with my purchase

I love this sander. I wish I had seen the 'Project Farm" video first, but I read a ton of Amazon reviewd and took a shot with the Dewalt. I knew chances were high I would go with the Dewalt, as they got their hooks into me with some of their other cordless power tools. I paired this sander up with some 6Ah off-brand batteries I found on Amazon. Fantastic! I bought 2 for approximately $75. They come with a built in LED display and are 100% compatible with Dewalt tools and 20V chargers. Will they last as long sanding compared to using the Dewalt cells? I doubt it, but the savings allowed me to have 2 packs rotating so I was never stalled waiting for a fresh charge. I did try this sander with my old Dewalt 20V 2Ah battery packs and they did not give me any useful duration to sand the counters. I resurfaced a huge amount of butcher block counter tops that are on all sides of the kitchen. I could have use 40-60 grit sanding pads to remove the heavy coat of marine varnish, but the pads load up quickly and the varnish glazes over to form a air gap between the pad and the surface. I found a utility one-sided razor blade, scraped across the surface peals the old varnish with minimal effort. Two other tips: 1) buy the vacuum adapter to manage the dust, and 2) buy a big box of mixed grit sanding pads on Amazon so you can afford to keep a fresh pad with the right amount of teeth to do the job. I worn pad extends the time and drains the battery with no surface preparation (sanding) in exchange. The dust extractor when coupled to a vacuum is awesome. Very little dust covering the kitchen wares. I tried the included dust bag attachment without a vacuum and it works fairly well, better than other sanders I own. If you have a shop vac, buy the $11 adapter, you will be glad you did. Speaking of cost, this sander is on the high end of the price range. As demonstrated on Project Farm, this sander ranked close to or at the top of all of the brands tested. Easy to move around without getting tired. Controls are convenient and easy to adjust. Low vibration, no heat generated, noise was OK even when sanding inside. If you want a random orbital cordless hand sander and you can afford this model; if you follow the 2 tips, you will be very pleased with the decision and the results. There was some beautiful old butcher block underneath the varnish. Take your time and progress from 40-60 grit, to 80, 100,120 180, etc., through 400 minimum. You may not think the grit gradations are too small, but there is a visible difference in surface finish if the steps are large. I used 400 & 800 grit pads in between coats of urethane. I have received lots of compliments on the finished project. This sander earned a big portion of the praise.

I love it! easy to use and its great for everyday work

What can you say Dewalt tools are great products. Works perfectly. I have many Dewalt 20v tools.

Fairly long lasting, reasonable price. Effective sanding.

Equipamento TOP.. se quer uma lixadeiraz que realmente faça o serviço. Então esse é o produto ideal. Recomendo 100%

Excellent little machine, powerful, dust capture is very good, and a very solid machine. Well made, great quality. Highly recommended for the price. Thank You DeWalt

Es increíble lo bien que funciona aún en la velocidad número uno. La lijadora se encarga de hacer el trabajo sin que sea necesario aplicar fuerza sobre ella. Dependiendo el grano de las lijas, puede dejar las superficies tan lisas como un cristal. Ha sido mi primera lijadora Roto Orbital y son muy superiores a las orbitales. La excelente capacidad para aspirar el polvo me encantó, calculo que el polvo que atrapa está entre un 85 y 95% de lo que genera, no requiere demasiada limpieza posterior. En cuanto al peso; definitivamente es mucho más cómodo usarla con baterías de 2Ah aunque las vacía rápido y va disminuyendo su potencia sin que sea perceptible pero no deja de trabajar. Ya con baterías de 4Ah sí hay una considerable diferencia del peso de la lijadora, de hecho, una batería de 4 sirve de base para dejar la lijadora en posición vertical ya que sí le gana el peso. Con las PowerStack de 5Ah se me hizo incómodo usarla. Hasta el momento he podido lijar madera sólida, triplay, lámina de acero, pintura y barniz y, la única dificultad, ha sido con el barniz y la pintura, el grano se puede tapar rápido. Me parece que con esta lijadora y una de banda, se cubren todas las necesidades de lijado. Feliz con esta adquisición. :))
