HitachiSV12SG Orbital Sander 230V 200W

Very good little sander. Fits comfortably in the palm of your hand. Only one thing, your hand gets quite cold as the air is ejected straight onto your fingers. Easy to change sand paper and comes with a jig o punch holes in the abrasive if like me you buy it on a role.

THIS IS AN EXTREMELY GOOD SANDER,MY LAST ONE WAS A DE WALT WHICH WAS PRETTY GOOD BUT THIS ONE IS BETTER,QUIETER AND EASIER TO USE. ALL IN ALL ,WELL WORTH THE MONEY

Had this for some time and given it a good test.Really impressed for the price. After owning a far more expensive dewalt sander, I was slightly worried but no need to be as this certainly handles all the jobs I have thrown at it.Pros:-Nice lot of powerSmall and easy to manipulateAbbrasive paper replacement is a simple taks. The clips look fragile but are actually pretty strong.I guess if you treat your tools bad, then you may have problems with the clips, but treat em nice and they will last!ConsI am yet to find a dust collector thatA) stays in placeB) effectively collects dust.The good thing about the dust bag is that, when you get it to hold on, it slows the movement of dust around your sanding area.

Very pleased with my purchase and quick delivery from amazon. This is a great compactsander. Well made works very well and most of all a good price. You could buy cheapermakes but for the little extra cash you will not be dissapointed.

This is so much more powerful and has lasted much longer than my old diy branded sander that on a bang for buck basis I can't fault it. The dust collector isn't much to shout about, but they never are.

Gives a really good finish and is easy to use. Not sure the dust capture is that efficient, but that seems to be a problem with them all.

Very pleased with this item from Amazon . It feels good and looks good and does a good job. Only time will tell how long it lasts ,but so far great.

Got this sander after reading as many reviews as i could. and have to agree with most. It is a sturdy sander, but not industrial. so good around the house but i imagine not if you use it everyday. So far i have used to to prep a wall for painting and sanding down a bicycle frame for spray painting. for prepping walls i would say get a bigger sander with a larger base as this one is really for smaller jobs. it does a great job, but takes a bit longer due to surface size. for the bicycle frame it worked a real treat. hours of sanding turned to minutes.there are many reviews that say users broke the sander after a few times of use, and i have to believe that is either due to a faulty unit, but more likley cause the user doesn't know how to use a sander properly. the correct action is to move the unit forward and backwards, not side to side as this puts undue pressure on the base and joints. also not pushing down too hard on the sander.would recommend for home use.and yes the dust collector is almost pointless.
