First Impressions

"The dust collector works well."

The 21 inch model may be a better choice if that's an issue. For the price, all things considered, this is a good value. This one is heavy duty compared to my little round one. I would recommend this sander to anyone interested in it. At one point it began to not start when pulling switch.

BLACK+DECKER BR318 Final Thoughts

"BLACK+DECKER makes great products."

It is powerful and I like that it has variable speeds. The Sander looked like it was used for a huge project. It does not hold a ton but that's OK--it's a small sander. It could just be that some bolts are lose, but I'm not sure. I don't need to plug into my garage and work upstairs.

Overall Score 3.9
