Good value grinder,
October 22, 2009
By PeeWee8400
from Williamson, NY
"Overall I like this grinder. I use it around my home shop for small hobby welding projects and mostly for sharpening mower blades. The trigger switch is my favorite feature and the 3 position handle is nice too. I'm not sure how well it would hold up to everyday use but for the price it does every thing I need it to. Do yourself a favor and throw away the original disc. It clogged up with the first set of blades I sharpened like I was trying to grind aluminum. I alway feel you get what you pay for and this grinder is no exception. I think it is a very good grinder for the price."

Northern Tool 4-1/2 Angle Grinder- CT-3049,
October 19, 2009
By rafatch
from Princeton, MA
"I had a demolition project that was a "one of" type for me that required an angle grinder to cut off framing nail and some 1/4 inch bolt ends.. It was about 25 hours worth of work and I used up several 1/8 thick cut off wheels. I did not want or need to spend big bucks to rent or purchase a tool. I found the CT-3049 priced at the level which matched a daily rental cost. I was able to work at my pace not concerned about rental returns and add the tool to my collection which I know will come in handy later on. As for performance the CT-3049 did all I asked of it. My operation required cycling the grinder on and off in short cycles, the control switch did seem to stick a few times in the off position after a couple of hours of use toward the end, but never became a big problem. Over all the grinder did what I required and saved me time and some labor."

Acceptable for Homeowner use,

By bowtiefan
from Knoxville, TN
"I have used this grinder for several years. I bought it to sharpen lawn mower blades and other light duty work. I did use it to remove a diving board stand at our community pool, which was a bit above its intended duty. I had to stop and let it cool a couple of times, but it still works fine. I have also used it to cut tile. Professionals and frequent welders should spend the extra money for a name brand."

"This tool is certainly priced right. It is a little loud and seems to rattle more than more expensive brands but it gets the job done for a lot less money."

"I've had this for a couple months. I've used it for welding and masonry grinding. Works fine. Don't know how long it will last. I'd say it'll stand up to my infrequent usage."
