Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

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.
