Amazon.com Product Description
Featuring DeWalt's exclusive Controlled Finishing System (CFS), the D26453K random orbit sander delivers speed and precision for beautiful, smooth finished products. The CFS controls pad speed mechanically to minimize the unsightly gouging that can occur when you start up other sanders, while a 3.0 Amp variable speed motor provides 7,000-12,000 orbits per minute for swift, reliable results. A textured anti-slip top and convenient body grips make this tool easy to hold and control, and a dual-plane counter-balanced fan mechanically reduces vibration to help you protect your body and stay comfortable. And over the long haul, a dust-sealed switch that prevents contamination and 100-percent sealed ball-bearing construction helps ensure durability. This versatile orbit sander provides you with a 3/32-inch orbit diameter that's perfect for the progressive removal of material, and it accepts 5-inch, 8-hole PSA papers, allowing you to switch sanding disks quickly and easily. A high-capacity dust bag with built-in vacuum adapter lets you keep your work area clear with or without the use of a vacuum. This DeWalt High Performance Industrial Tool comes with a heavy-duty kit box.

5 out of 5 stars Easy to Use Sander   January 18, 2009

I purchased this random-orbit sander to finish a huge porch. This machine is not heavy and is easy to use(I'm a retired woman). I was pleased with the results. There are no sand marks because of the random-orbit rotation. My son in law has borrowed it and likes it too. Before I bought this sander, I used a friends which was another brand. His was heavy and much harder to use. It is easy to go to one of the home building stores to get the replacement sand paper but cheaper to buy it on Amazon. I used this machine a lot and made the mistake of not changing the sandpaper one time and ruined the underneath side but was able to buy a replacement locally. This sander was shipped immediately and arrived in pristine condition. I think it does such a good job that I am planning to finish my dining room table with it.

This is a great sander. Much better than my Porter Cable. My only wish is that it would have a little longer cord. It doesn't hurt my hands to use this tool. I would buy it again. The dust collection system work great and is easy to clean out. A little comprssed air and the unit looks like new.

I purchased this sander to help out with drywall sanding of joint spackling compound in a townhouse remodel. It worked great for that purpose. You will need to detach the small dust bag that comes with the unit and attach the suction hose of a vacuum cleaner to it. Of all choices of vacuum cleaner I used a Rug Vacuum Cleaner - The Hoover Windtunnel Floor Upright. Albeit that vacuum cleaner didn't lead to the most convenience it was the only vacuum I had and it worked pretty well as long as you were patient to move the vacuum as you sanded. The dust was held down considerably with the vacuum attached. In my opinion, the sander was easy to control and the dust was vacuumed away sufficiently. Be careful to make sure the vacuum hose stays attached because the sander itself will spew the materials out the back all by itself. Since there is a lot of noise with both the sander and vacuum on at the same time you will have trouble hearing the hose come off. I had no problems with the ON/OFF switch or weight of the unit. It was a little heavy but it is also a very rugged model. Sandpaper for it is sold both at Home Depot and Loews. I'd by the economy pack to stock up. The carrying case it comes with can store the sandpaper. I had owned a square vibration sander prior to this one that shook my hands way too uncomfortably. This model is pretty smooth. It probably has a lot of uses other than drywall but if that's your purpose - it works great for that. I'm happy I purchased it. It was worth the cost to me. Good Luck.

I bought this to to remove hand sanding drywall out of the equation. I took a 2 hour job & reduced it to 15 mins. The DEWALT D26453K has excellent build quality. It transfers little to no vibration to the users hands, it's lightweight, and fits perfectly into my hand. These qualities allow me to use the sander upside down to sand my drywall ceilings with no issues. A must for anyone no matter the size the job. I love it!
