Grinding wheel,
August 11, 2008
By Coryfrom Colorado Springs Co
"This grinder is a decent grinder for the price in which one pays. But there was one problem when they sent it to me. They sent it with a wheel that was not balanced properly, so i had to go and bye a new wheel which was a hassle. But it is a decent grinder."

Good for light duty,
May 10, 2008
By bigaflyfrom Jackson,MS
"This is a good bench grinder for the home hobbist, but would not acceptable for daily use. The motor turns the grinding wheels OK, but I mounted a wire brush that loaded it too much. The 8" Dewalt is also rated at 3/4 hp but seems to have much more torque with the wire brush. Overall worth the price, but opt for the Dewalt or Baldor if you want a professional quality machine."

8" Grinder,
April 21, 2008
By trouperfrom Donnelly ID
"This is about as good of a grinder as you can get for the money. Most 8' grinders are twice the money and have no better warranty. It is not as powerful as I could use, but it has been adequate for my work. I have a small auto shop so time will tell for me. It should be fine for the average person."

Grinder,
January 15, 2008
By Circuitriderfrom Arvada, ( Denver Colorado
"It is a very high speed grinder, lots of power and stones are very good. Only problem I had was when I first turned it on it had a terrible vibration in the right wheel so I unpluged it and removed the stone, the washer was not installed correctly and the shem was too thin. I placed another one in its place and tightened it down and it now runs smooth. Very good product ....... but someone didn't check it out before it was shipped. Thanks, The Circuit rider."

Decent,
January 14, 2008
By qtrmiler347from Miami, FL
"This bench grinder is a very good deal. The only drawback would be that 8 inch grinding wheels are not made precise enough to spin without some wobble, which in turn causes some vibration with the grinder. Not the grinder's fault though. Next time I will probably stick with a 6 inch grinder for that reason, plus there is much more selection of grinding wheels, accessories, etc."

Great buy for the money...,
October 29, 2007
By JR01from Cape Canaveral, FL
"This unit has plenty of power, & has worked flawlessly for me so far. It does not come with a light (a feature that is included with several other models), but if your workspace is well-lit, the absence of the light is mox nix. Much more affordably-priced than the comparable models available from other manufacturers."
