I've been using the Makita BO5021 sander for about two years and I am completely satisfied with the tool.I removed the dust bag and adapter so that I can hook my Fein vacuum (via a Fein adapter) to the sander and it collects 95% of the dust. The sander works smoothly with very little vibration and has plenty of power. The sanding disks are available almost everywhere (I use the Mirka Gold disks).
Works great. Compact carrying case. Easy to attach sanding disks and they stay in place; 5 variable speeds are a good range; dust bag works very well and is easy to detach and empty.
Works great, super. But when you buy the 5" sanding disks, be sure to get the ones with 8 little circular holes, not 5, the latter are not compatible.
The sander was delivered on time and was brand new, as expected. I would order from these folks again.
I bought this Makita sander on recomendation from my Dad.It is a very nice orbital sander, uses the hook and loop sandpaper, and has the handle on the front of the sander so you can hold on to it with both hands. Double thumbs up.
