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.
Update (2/8/2012): This item is currently on sale here for the lowest price I’ve seen.

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 like this sander. The handle is comfortable and makes it easier to sand assign. I had another sander vacuum, but never finished working with a finishing sander sander regularly since the vacuum was so uncomfortable and difficult to use. Using what I could do a little drywall work in my home without leaving home or coating of dust as it happens with a regular sander. I am not a professional so I really appreciated the soft grip that holds on him after sanding for a long period much easier. I also appreciated being able to change position by hand and use both hands or for parts difficult to give my arms a break.
