GSS20-40 Orbital Finishing Sander 1/4-Sheet, 2 Amp, 12000 OPM with Dust Collector

This is a good little sander, vibration is not too bad and power is great. I use a shop vac adapter and almost zero dust. The paper clamps work fine. Recommended

Works very well. Dust pick up is pretty good for what it is. Definitely not 100%. But I didn't expect that. Get the shop vac attachment for the best dust pick up. And don't even bother with the filtered collector it comes with unless you're sanding toothpicks. It fills up very fast. You'll be emptying it more than you'll be sanding. But then you already knew sanding causes a lot of dust and didn't expect that tiny thing to hold a lot did you? If you have small hands it will probably get hard to hold if you're sanding a lot and holding it sideways. I think that is typical for these types of sanders though. Very comfortable sanding horizontal surfaces. Highly recommend. Goid deal for the price.

Item is absolutely fine. Just be aware this is the smaller version , a 1/4 sheet of sandpaper. I was used to the 1/2 sheet of sand paper size model. I would say this sander is going to be great for smaller projects. I would not use it on larger work. Hope this helps

Bought this when refinishing my kitchen cabinets and it worked like a charm! It has good heft to it without being too heavy to work with for extended periods of time. Love that you can cut sandpaper to fit it so easily. Comfortable to use, handle is ergonomic, isn’t too noisy, motor feels powerful and gets the job done quickly. Great value!

My Makita palm sander I bought over thirty years. finally died I loved this tool, but its one down side was It had no dust collection system other than a cloth bag that was useless. So when I went looking for its replacement, I wan't something with a decent dust collection system. After reading through tyhe reviews of all the major brands, I had concluded that still none of them had a decent dust collection system. I decided on the Bosch Palm sander simply because I have a larger Boscg sander with pretty good dust collection, and hoped for the best with the Palm sander. When ther sander arrived and I gave it a test run I was delighted with the dust control it provided. I immediately got rid of the dust filter than came with the sander and hooked it up to a dewalt shop vac I have, and the results were pretty amazing. The dust control was better than anything I expected. Nearly any Palm sander nowdays will provide decent sanding, but if you have a good shop vac and can connect it to this Bosch sander (you need an adaptor to get from the sander to the shop vac hose) then you can sand away with little or no dust. P.S. I have been woodworking for 40 years, and I rarely write reviews. But when I find a tool that might benefit other woodworkers, I try to pass on my observations

This sander works great. Can't say if its better than a DeWalt or Makita, but it works and is easy to use and keeps grip of the sandpaper well. What is really "like magic" is how well it collects the sanding dust. No vacuum hose source is needed - it just gets blown into the canister in back without a vacuum. My 14 yo daughter was using this (that's how easy it is to use!!) while I was hand sanding, and the dust difference was like night and day. Need to empty the dust canister frequently more so for coarse grit sandpaper, but that takes all of 1 min to do. Well worth the almost non-existent dust and not having to run a vacuum cleaner.

I had one of these about 24 years ago. It quit working a while back, so I got this one - same model, size, etc., 'cept it loads better and retains the paper better, too. All in all, an excellent sander that'll work for you for years. Bosch makes nice tools, that's fer sher.

I like having a 1/4 sheet sander for getting into corners, or along straight edges. This Bosch works well and is reasonably priced. No way I could justify the price of a battery operated one which is much more expensive. I like that it has a filter for the dust canister. It leaves more scratches than a random orbital, but that is to be expected.

budget buy for re-sale, works good

Me gusta que no hace mucho ruido al lijar, no es pesada lo único que no me gustó fue que aún suelta un poco de aserrín que no logra atrapar el contenedor pero es el menor de los males. Si eso no te preocupa este producto es para ti
