Highlights
Quality
The quality of this tool is first rate
I cant imagine the porter cable paint remover doing a better job than this tool and the metabo being about 3
I ended up removing the side blades and then raising the side cut doors so i could work in closer with the main blades
I adapted a shop vac hose to the metabo vacuum connection but found it very difficult to manuver with the vacuum hose connected
Price
I wondered how a hand held power tool the size of an angle grinder could cost sooo much
Shipping
Unfortunately the shipping took several days longer than advertised
Packaging/appearance
I recommend a quick run over the weatherboards with some p60 sandpaper once you have used the metabo
You have to set the nails before you strip the paint
I have found that i can strip anywhere from 6 8 square metres in an hour including the underside of the weatherboard
Competitiveness
And itll pay for itself on the first job
It is german engeneering all the way and made in germany unlike bosh ridgid and other profit hungry brands
The dust from this tool will quickly clog a vacuums filter so i wrap two layers of paper towels around the filter to act as a prefilter

I found that i could not operate the machine with the base flat against the work as i believe the manufacture intends
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I had to set the cutting depth very shallow and i had to tilt the base a couple of degrees from flat either to the nose or one side or the other to prevent digging in too deep
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I ended up setting the cutting depth to something less than zero on the depth of cut scale
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I also found the side blades ineffective for trimming paint from the edges of the siding as no depth adjustment is provided for this direction

I ended up not using the vacuum and counting on my respirator
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Siding is only a few years old so lead isnt a concern
