I think you forgot about the 3rd most favourite tool to put to the test is Makita bo6050j???

@TNTINDUSTRIESLLC 21 день назад

I’ll do another one when I’m not so busy with orders 👍

Really great video. I have watching a bunch of these as I want to buy a great sander once without regrets and your video was probably the most helpful so far.

@rm.builds 11 месяцев назад

Bosch is an excellent manufacturer that doesn’t get much love in the US. I am almost exclusively Bosch in my shop, and that is having used several Festools. Can’t go wrong with either brand 🤝🏽

@TheRealPlato 7 месяцев назад

as a novice my first powered sander is GEX18V-5N. I paid $164 shipped for new sander, open box 4.0 battery and open box charger. Project Farm has a rigorous 18V sander comparison and the GEX18V-5N stomped all competitors in all metrics. It hurts to pay the cordless premium but eliminating the risk of tripping on a power cord is worth quite a lot to me. Jonathan katz-moses has a rigorous robotic sandpaper test and based on those results I'm starting with a variety pack of Cubitron Mesh.

@NorthOak.Studio 8 дней назад

Just purchased Makita 6050 750W. Lately, I have been spending my money on that very brand. It seems extremely good.

@jakeb7244 Год назад

Great video. This is the kind of information that helps us perform well without overspending. Bosch has always been a good choice for my shop. There is so much content with Festool, im sure its all good stuff but, I cant justify the dough.

@umitdolap1733 8 месяцев назад

Here in Europe, both Bosch and Festool are revered brands. My parents have always used Bosch tools and although I would like to use Festool, I can't justify the cost of those products yet. I have the CTL-MIDI dust extractor and it does its job perfectly with all of my Bosch tools. I do have a Festool C18 cordless screwdriver/drill and it's my workhorse, it does it's job for almost six years now. Many thanks for this video, I was looking for a side-to-side comparison of Festool vs Bosch Professional and I appreciate your video.

@jeroen2082 Месяц назад

Nice video and great woodwork. Bought the Bosch GSS 12V-13 a few weeks ago. It's by far not the most powerful, but it's a joy to use. Small, ergonomic and lightweight.

@johnmmiller Год назад

Well done guys

@JeffDM Год назад

I'm interested in a sander and the Bosch GEX34-6N sounds perfect for me because vibrations are my biggest motivation for upgrading. I'm not against spending more but that would mean I put off the purchase, but it's nice that it's the lowest vibrations in this shootout. It's too bad the battery unit wasn't great. I have it and my biggest complaint is the vibrations. I appreciate the shootout.

This was an excellent video. I would love to see a head to head comparison of the Bosch dust extractor vs a Festool version. For the price, Bosch gives you more capacity but I would love to see if the performance is similar because I’m totally thinking about getting a Bosch. And some sanders.

@s312a22s 11 месяцев назад

I purchased a used one as the piece is a bit pricey, but the machine ru-vid.comUgkxG6fbm3cHBd7CNTjk5D-dwYe9c9tCB9ZN has surpassed my expectations. We sand small parts by hand often, sized around 1"x1/2," and specifically look for a piece that's designed to be vertical. The motor has plenty of torque and great speed settings. The only inconvenience I had is that the disk measures 5" where we trim 6" stick-and-sand disks down easily by mounting it then cutting with a box cutter.

@pctatc66 Год назад

good tip on that 6" bosch gex34 I may have to pick one up and turn my ets125 back into a true 5".

@AFGautonompunk Год назад

such good video, i liked the sandpaper you used (as you probably also watched got the update from comparison) and a comprehensive testing schedule. just one question, the get 75-6 is not the same as Bosch GET 75-150 ? and i might have missed it, but what did you find out about the turbo respectively in 75, rotex ?

@TNTINDUSTRIESLLC Год назад

Bosch “rotex” is almost as good as the festool rotex however it isn’t as stable on turbo mode. I’d recommend the Bosch over the Festool still

@WhiskeyTangoFoxtraught Год назад

Great comparison! As I approach 50 vibration approaches the most important concern. I have the Bosch GET75 (love it!) thinking hard about that new BOSCH GEX34, next big sand job may be worth it.

@andre1987eph 3 месяца назад

Great video. My only suggestion would have been to specif7cally name model number AND use pop up captions each time you held or picked up a sander. "This" vs "that one" doesn't work if one is completely unfamiliar with any of the models OR is listening to this as a podcast and without watching screen. This is a common error on youtube as most videograohers arent professionally trained

@dougw2340 10 месяцев назад

So the new Bosch GET-75 is worse than the old 1250Devs? I just did a RO 150 comparison and stability is the same. Actually the only difference I can tell is it’s slightly quieter and a 3 yr warranty. It’s maybe worth $50 more but certainly not $375

the difference in speed of the 5" and 6" is the 3mm and 5mm stroke the 5mm removes more material faster

@digidandan 4 месяца назад

I need to agree - I got the large bosch with a vibration damping system - after the first start I could not believe how fast, vibration free and pleasant to use it is. Comparing to other sanders I had before it is insane, it vibrates NOTHING.

@paulhopkins1905 Месяц назад

To be fair, on the second test. The 5mm stroke is a far bigger advantage in speed over the 6 inch pad.

Try getting parts and pads for bosch compared to festool, ive had all but festool is truly worth it if you do a lot of tables

I do a lot of tables, I would still recommend the Bosch before the festool if you are someone getting started. The price point makes it a no brainer. They almost the same as festool, I’ll post an update video at the 2 year mark

Ughhh, the Bosch sanding pads are readily available. Hell Klingspore sells them, so I can order them when I buy sand paper...

what kind of vacuum do you use with the bosch

@TNTINDUSTRIESLLC Год назад

A 5hp rigid. There is a vacuum hose hit for like $20-$30 that has all the attachments plus a 15ft hose.

@pctatc66 Год назад

yes you are correct. you can bolt a 6" pad on the 5" ets 125 3mm and save some money. but only on the 3mm version.. thats what I run! only takes a minute to switch out pads

@cuebj 5 месяцев назад

All the breands have strengths and weaknesses. For most of us heavy duty diyers with limited budgets (not retired dentists), if we want cordless, best to stick with one battery and compromise on our battery brand's weakness while benefiting from their strengths which most match our particular uses. Corded - we can be more picky with each tool. DeWalt corded is mostly rubbish now, unfortunately, which simplifies the options by excluding the whole brand. Makita has maintained the standard of their corded tools for, eg, diamond drills and circular saws. I always found Bosch drills and drivers disappoint - but that's cordless and some years ago. The Bosch sanders seem best for me - results and use match Festool (some better, some worse, some equal) and prices beat Festool.

@co6333 7 месяцев назад

So compare a festool ets 125 3mm stroke to bosch 6 in 5mm stroke. Of course bosch is faster. If they were both 6 inch sanders the bosch would still be faster.it like comparing the festool 3mm vs 5mm. 5mm larger stroke will always remove more material faster.

@enhancehomeimprovementstoo1802 Год назад

@mulletthehunter7163 Год назад

I absolutely hate my bosch gex 125/150. The velcro is just shocking. I hardly use the thing cos it pisses me off so much. I've ordered replacement bases and within a few uses with brand new paper the sand paper just flies off. Once it starts doing this your buggered! To make matters worse the center bolt which holds the base on has a habit of coming loose quite frequently (dispite doing it up with a wrench), it rips through the sandpaper and gauges the crap out of your work piece. Genuinely shocking!!

You'd have to have more money than brains to get the Festool instead of the Bosch.

@lukehanna7440 11 месяцев назад

Trouble is Bosch just don’t last as long, there’s a cheapness feel to them & always something that brakes on themcompared to festool anyway. I had loads of Bosch tools over the years, but have sold them all for better brands.

@joseangel4821 11 месяцев назад

I think oposite, need to have brains to spend money on some tool that worth every single penny you spend, believe me, you end up spending more fixing, and buying more bosh sanders while, i have my festool still running, and not problems at all, i tried to replace with 3M Xtract and in the beginning i though i got the best sander when i used the first time, after 8 hours of work went down and no turning back on, i bought from amazon and return policy expired after a month, they sent me a link to 3M xtract customer service and is a nightmare to get someone to answer, i beg to amazon and they did an exception and returned to them, that way i save my 500hundred and invested on festool or mirka the best
