Pros & Cons
Pros
Coming from a harbor freight 1x30, this thing is a godsend. Rikon is consistently better than the no name stuff out there. Very handy for my shop.
The machine itself is well built and sturdy even when not fastened down. Smooth operation with minimal belt chatter. It is quiet and well balanced.
Cons
The work station for the 1 sander is far to small for a standard knife bevel *. The centering knob looks like someone use channel lock pliers to adjust the knob. Poor quality for the cost of this sander.
Highlights
Quality
I am very pleased with this purchase
Also used it for sharpening some old but high quality chisels back to an unbelievable sharpness
Not the quality i expected from rikon
I don’t have personal experience but inline reviews and basic components seem higher quality where it matters
Shipping
I was very unhappy regarding the shipping of this item
Packaging/appearance
Works like a charm right out of the box
First i was impressed with the packaging by rikon
Competitiveness
I like rikon products they also have good customer services
