Decent tool, but rough around the edges
This sander was a decent solution to my sanding problems, but it has some issues as well. I needed something to augment a Porter-Cable wall sander while I refinished hallways and staircase walls. The Porter-Cable sander is an amazing tool (a little expensive), but something else was needed for the edge-work. That’s where this Marshalltown vacuum came in. It does a good job of sanding, but because it isn’t an orbital sander you really need to be careful not to grind straight lines right into your walls. With the vacuum applied it is also tiring to move because it adheres to the wall so tightly. In the end, it serves its purpose for edge work, but it is still a pretty rough tool. I replaced the hose that was included because it was to flimsy.

Well designed and well built
This is really as advertised. Works great, handles easily, and makes hand sanding into a comfortable job. It is strong and rugged but light weight and well balanced.

clean, comfortable sanding
I love that Sander. The handle is comfortable and allows allot easier when grinding. I had a different vacuum Sander, but never ended conclusion of a job with a regular Sander, there was the other vacuum Sander as uncomfortable and difficult to use. With this I could not a small drywall job in my house without moving or coated with dust from the house as it was with a regular Sander. I am not a professional, so I really appreciate the soft feel, making the IT Holding after grinding for a long time a lot easier. I also liked the ability to shift hand positions and with both hands for difficult parts or to give my arms a break.
