Quality


I am completely satisfied with the tool


I have ordered 2 additional wen products very happy with the unit


We are able to do a better job sanding with the oscillating arm


Very easy setup and with the exception of the attachment tool all of the accessories have a place to mount on the sander base

Price


But for the price i really cant complain about my two issues


Is bigger and more substantial than i envisioned it to be


Got this because the price was better and the design looks to be exactly the same as the other brands

Packaging/appearance


The packaging survived the unit inside was protected by top and bottom styrofoam inserts which held up well about 30 pounds ship weight


I took it out of the box cleaned the oil off the table installed the 3inch spindle and started sanding its that simple

Competitiveness


Works great and the dust collection is better that i expected especially if you dont forget to plug the hose into your shopvac


Much better than hf machine and cheaper


This sander did not cost much more than knockoff competitors and actually cost less than some lesser equipped machines


It has a 12 hp motor and plenty of power compared to many competitors that have only 15 hp motors

    It works fine so i saved some money sacrificing nothing


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It would be nice if they could make a recast of the underside of the table rim so that you could bolt a rest for an extension on


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Or if they sold an extension as an accessory


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The main issue i have is the insert rings are not flush with work surface


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Most all the housing and internal structural components are a type of thermal plastic


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Internal plastic parts will crack break and make the machine inoperable


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I found the spindle bolt to be of a soft steel and it eventually twisted off at the top


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Before this i had the handheld version also from wen and it worked fine but i later realized it just wasn’t big enough to thickness certain headstock designs
