Great product works very well. Have used it for many hours and very satisfied with the performance. Be prepared to fine tune everything. The case around the disk sander needed to be persuaded to fit better, the metal table took awhile to clean the heavy waxy grease off as a protective barrier. Tuning the belt sander took some time to fine tune the rollers. It is a heavy machine made of cast metal. It is a solid machine. Just be prepared to do some tuning of everything. The lock knob for the adjustable disk table is under sized, needs to be changed to larger one, it sometimes works lose. The exhaust ports are not the same size, why can't they at least make them the same, come on engineers. Even with all these concerns I would still rate this high as a good machine.

I recently bought this sander through this site and am pleasantly surpized on how well it works. Setup was not bad but I did spend about an hour doing it as the books needs some better technical writing. Still assembly was not a huge challenge. I needed this sander for some production work and it works great for just that. I produce high quality beehives for small scale beekeepers. Due to the quality of my hives I just have not been able to produce as many hives as I have requests for. Sanding was a bottle neck in the operation and even hiring help was not enough. This sander has cut my sanding time by 2/3rds and I am getting better quality work in the process. I am seriously considering buying a second Grizzly sander if business keeps increasing. Cheaper belt sanders just seemed like a pain to adjust. Much more expensive belt sanders could be very finely adjusted but I didn't need all the extra bell and whisles at 2 to 3 times the cost. The grizzly was the right sander at the right price.

I have NEVER had more difficulty with any power tool in my 50 plus years of buying and using tools. I have had more problems getting this power tool up and running than anything I have ever bought. The manual of instructions for assembly is woefully incomplete. I suspect that a novice would never have been able to get the machine running. While I now have it running, it still requires more adjustment and modification. All I can say is the person who designed it either is not a woodworker or this is the first time they ever designed a power tool. Clearly that person never tried to use it after it was on the market. In conclusion I can only say I would not recommend this sander to anyone and plan to send more detailed comments with pictures to Grizzly. Allan Furman, Deerfield Beach, FL
