Runner-ups are: Great Value We have several right angle grinders from this 4.3 amp model up to a 7” Makita. All have their purpose. Just use this grinder accordingly and it will last a long time. Very useful for light steel cutting and brushing. We have several of these light weight grinders that we use for brushing welds. We keep at least two set up at each station and swap between them to not overheat them. Works great for the price. TSSRA, 11 May 2019 Great for light use Used with a cutting wheel and worked perfect. Will it last? Well it made it past the first week of use. Time will tell Bryan, 29 Apr 2019 Worth every penny My grinder burned up 72 hours after buying it. The tool worked hard before burning up with about 12 hours of work. I returned it to the store and they replaced it with "ZERO" hassle. The replacement works just fine. John B., 25 Apr 2019 So cheap, you might not need the wrench! This grinder is really cheap. If you burn it up, buy a good one from a name brand supplier. I use mine to avoid lost time changing cutting wheels and for lending out to protect my Milwaukee. BCVolkert, 14 Apr 2019 It's my son's, but I'm gonna borrow it... I saw a guy do the most amazing thing with his the other day. He wanted to shave a little bit off the hand wheel/ balance wheel he was putting on an old [sewing] machine. It wasn't an official replacement, and it interfered with the inner clutch release handle. He doesn't have a machine shop, so he tilted his angle grinder to the side, and stepped on the speed controller for the sewing machine. When the hand wheel was spinning, he used the angle grinder to just grind a tiny bit off the inner edge of the wheel. Mind blown. It just opens up so many possibilities when you think outside the box! NOTE: NOT A RECOMMENDED USE OF THE TOOL. IF YOU TRY IT, YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN, LIABILITY WISE.
