About WEN

Remember WEN? We've been designing and distributing high quality and affordable power tools for decades. Founded by Nick Anton back in 1951, WEN originally made its mark by helping bring tools and electricity together (putting the power into power tools). Our research and development team played a vital role in helping to develop a variety of common everyday tools such as the chainsaw, the electric soldering gun, the electric jigsaw, the electric engraver, and the knife and wet wheel sharpeners. WEN even pioneered random orbital technology; the technology seen in most polishers, waxers, and buffers today that gives cars everywhere the streak free shine they deserve.

First Impressions

"This thing is a beast!"

The rest is heavy cast iron and a very solid piece of equipment. There was a substantial difference in the price of the two units. This tool is quiet, and devoured every thing I threw at it. It took a few minutes to square up the table per the instructions. Without the brake it would wind down for minutes and it is pretty loud.

WEN 65812 Final Thoughts

"Very pleased with the purchase."

For small projects and working with small parts, this is the sander to get. The wheel does not have any wobble to it and is very flat. There priced between $25k to $125k, and I only make 1 a year. The power switch also has a tab lock that works fine. The motor spools up like some I've heard in big factories & runs very smooth.

Overall Score 4.5
