How did the Dewlalt Cordless Orbital Sander Hold Up After Two Years of Heavy Use? LET"S FIND OUT!!!! 

i had the corded for so many years and and say I've used it a few time but when i got the cordless I use it all the time great info and that room looks real nice like can't wait for tour of it

Great video! I've got the corded Dewalt sander and have been wanting to pull the trigger on this for my 20V collection. Gotta get one soon!

I have to agree with you. I got one of these three weeks ago and have used it on two big projects already with excellent results. The battery life with the 5AH batteries is outstanding too. The next huge thing is refinishing about 1600 sq ft of oak flooring, and the DeWalt is going to do all of the sanding near the walls that the big sander can’t do. DeWalt built another great tool.

Thank you for the range of videos. All the videos super help with purchasing decisions.

Dewalt nailed it great unit very durable after a years hard use.. More better with smaller cells for balance.. Dust extraction is just adequate.. Much improved with extractor then no iussue.. Very linear power output right to the end of the battery.. I only use the lowest setting for 90 % of my jobs..

I tried to resist the like button, but I just couldn’t do it. You my friend are a master of persuasion.

I like it I sanded my whole house with it (weatherboards not painted in 20 years), now I know why the dust bag didn't get all the dust. best sander ever.

Brother your genuine and witty…..I subbed.

Just got one of these a few weeks back and it's been great. One thing I'd recommend is getting a foam pad attachment (ie. a piece of foam that goes between the main backing plate and your sandpaper) to make it more comfortable, easier to control, as well as saving wear and tear on the backing plate. Much easier and cheaper to replace a 10 dollar piece of foam once in a blue moon. Also, great looking 800 half stack! What year is it? Cheers

What a coincidence i also just wanted to buy a cordless sander for my next project because doing it manual is a lot of work but with this video you 110% guarantee that this tool is worth buying.+subscribe

It's a great sander, I use mine wth 5ah batteries and they last really well.

Smeech!!! Love my Dewalt sander and have been trying to jam a vacuum hose in there. Now I am ordering the attachment. Thanks for the tip and link.

Mine got left under an overflowing gutter during heavy storm, Equivalent to hosing it on high pressure for over an hour. Hit it with the leafblower for a while then left it to dry for a day and still going strong 6 months later. oh and a 6ah battery was attached which also survived!

I have it too and you are right I use it more than anything I have 👍

I have the Dewalt 20v cordless sheet sander. Love it for finishing my tabletops! My vacuum attachment, however, is made of duct tape =)

I have the Milwaukee cordless but use the DeWalt while at work and I find that the DeWalt fits better in the hand and has better control on start up. And it's taken a lot of abuse and is still going strong

Omg i can use the vac attachment thanks clint Brother wish it came with the unit but appreciate the link brother @ToolReviewZone

All my Dewalt tools i do clean them all time i love your videos

Mine dropped from a ladder today and went. My makitas have had a lot more punishment and could always rely on them to go and go and go... However, this Dewalt is a beast of a machine and i will be buying another one as it has made me so much money. It chews through anything.

ordering now. Thanks for the tip and link.

I just used my flexvolt miter saw and the dewalt 20v max orbital sander with diablo sand net 120 grit sandnet re doing my metal gate slats with new slats prep for paint in some red wood 3/4 picket fence posts i cut down @ToolReviewZone

That’s a nice sander. I love mine.

Happy anniversary!!! I told Vince that you guys should do more fight videos 😂🤣🤣

I have one and love it!!

I agree its very Fantastico I have it and love it way more the my m18 brushed Milwaukee just perfection in my opinion dewalt did great on this guy never had any issues with the orbital function eaither unlike the Milwaukee @ToolReviewZone

Thanks for sharing

It would have nice if you would of put some 60grit or 80grit sandpaper on it and see if it can sand without bogging down and running through the battery quickly.

I use my Dewalt sander all the time with a 3ah. I love it.

I use mine with the 4.0 as well i like that the 20v max dewalt dust tube is out of the way of the battery unlike the Milwaukee were the dust tube gets in the way and limits battery size @ToolReviewZone

It’s good, got mine with 3ah battery deal for free. Like it so much going to try the sheet sander when they offer same deal. 3 ah battery works great with this sander, very balance.

I actually hit that like button while you were waiting 😀

I was using this brand new sander with a brand new 5ah 20V Max XR Dewalt brand battery and it took a few hours of sanding to drain the battery. Then I tried to take the battery off to recharge it and the battery was stuck to the sander. After repeatedly pressing the battery release latch and pulling, the battery finally came off. I saw that the battery release mechanism had been chewed up, maybe from vibration of the sander? So I used a brand new 2ah battery for about 20 minutes and when I removed the battery, it had the beginnings of the same deformity of the previous battery's release latch. I was using the sander on pieces of walnut with 60 grit sandpaper on the number 7 setting. Have you experienced this type of issue? I don't know why it's wearing on the battery latches so fast/at all. Batteries were firmly locked into place before using the sander.

I know I’m quite late but I got this sander on Black Friday for 50 dollars with a compact 3ah battery! This sander is really good, it’s smooth and small

You're correct the addition of a vacuum attachment would have been good

Very nice review. Very helpful. And yes, I did feel intimidated to hit the "like" button and so...... I did.

Nice Marshall amp and cabinet 👍🥃🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I have the corded version before this came out. Dust bag is the same. Cordless version is significantly quieter. It's a little bulky because of the pack, but I turn it sideways and the grip feels better. As in the battery pack is to the left instead of right, holding top (right handed). Finger won't access speed dial in that position. Not an issue. Just wish Dewalt would come out with an affordable BL vac i could hook it up to. Like updating that old 18v/20v to perform better. Bag isn't perfect. Beats having a weirdly shaped plastic box behind it. It's worth the money on sale.

I kin dof wish we can get a run time standard for these tools. what kind of continuous usage can you get on 5AH or something like that.

Being in the world of drywall, i don't use orbital hand sanders. It's either a pole sander, slight hand sanding, or electric drywall sander for mass footage. That little thing must've taken you a whole day to sand the studio. 🤣 Poor guy. Thanks TRZ and God bless!😁👍

Will the corded sanded be just as great as the cordless one? I will be sanding tons of wood and not sure the battery will last for as long as I need.

Man, I can’t decide between the Dewalt or Milwaukee. Im on all three battery systems but only have two 3.0 Dewalt batteries (should be enough for what I do). Only reason I’m not liking the Milwaukee is because it’s not brushless.

drj Westfield Wisconsin do the worx 20amp batteries interchange with the DeWalt? Or are all 20 amp batteries interchangeable.

How dose it do on metal. Looking to get one to do a mini bike frame.

Just got this tool, what I noticed first is how hard it is to put in and remove the battery on this thing. I have 7 batteries and 10 Dewalt tools, the batteries all go in and out extremely smoothly....Is this common on your sander as well?

How long does the battery last on running it ?

I bought one of these on Amazon and the pad doesn't spin at all, it only vibrates. I thought it was defective so I bought another one, but that one does the same thing. What are the odds I would get two defective units in a row? Am I missing something?

Where is the link for the vacuum adapter?

I thought you needed to use the sandpaper with the holes in it that matched the holes in the sander for it to suck up the dust....

what is running time on smaller 2 ah battery ?

You were great in True Romance and Saving Private Ryan

Just got one

Hi there. Does anyone have experience using this cordless sander or other Dewalt tool with RIDGID or Milwaukee batteries through the adapter. What are your impressions? Are the adapters reliable in operation?

One of my favorite tools as well! For my hands the handle is a little large, but it is a pleasure to use anyway. Dewalt is a little scarce with information regarding dust extraction: i wonder if this adapter also fits my dwe576 circular saw🤷🏻‍♀️without duct tape it will throw the dust out on an opening on the side which will probably be covered by the correct adapter. Anna

Have you tried the Milwaukee? How do they compare I wonder, 🤔 Bosch have just released an 18v brushless 5" R.O sander as well.

will any Dewalt rechargeable battery work on this?

nice video and sander what about milwaukee have to it? milwaukee 18v sander.

So the attachment doesn’t come W/Bag?

I choose the Mikita orbital ,because of the shape.

How long does a 5 ah with battery last?

Mine keeps turning off. Full battery and clean,empty bag but it turns off and won't stay on very long

Can you put a 6 inch pad on that?

Still hold up? Maybe I put too mush pressure on mine but seems like it bogs down easy and I notice it’s not constantly spinning.

Type 2 is now available!

Wtf dude u got a Jcm 800 stack there ...sweet!!!!

That is going to last u a life time. 👍👍👍👍👍

Hi TRZ, I like that shop vac attachment by DeWalt. Will it work on their cordless 1/4 sheet sander and the 7 1/4 cordless miter saw?

How can it pick up dust when you dont have the holes in the sandpaper!

Hey...im Clint as well.... Clint, clean your tools off after use bro!

Ummm dont u gotta have holes on sand paper to pick up the dust??

Got this to replace an old corded ryobi and I have to say it's..... Real naaaaas like 😎

I smeeshed it bro 😎

Omg your a goofy f***. awesome review keep them coming!

LOL, I don't think you are old enough to know how Sears in the 60s and on the greatest tool section in there stores, they had all there tool sets on a board with allthe tools in the kit to be seen, I would just go there and look like a kid in a toy shop, I think the big kit was about $600./$700, LOL so yes I love tools also.

These reviews of Dewalt orbital sander is soooo misleading. I have this for over a year and I hate it. Your health is far more important than it's performance. Yes, it does the job quite good, but the vibration is so bad, that your whole hand goes numb. I bet if you use it regularly, it destroys your nerves. First few times I thought I was doing something wrong. After reading more reviews, I found this is a BIG issue with this sander. I need to try something else...

Dewlalt

Smeesh that like button! 👀👉🏽 👍🏽

I wrapped some duct tape around it. Until it fit snugly to the hose for the vacume.

If you have to connect a Extractor then it makes it pointless being Cordless

No matter what just don't ever buy Bosch. I made the mistake and basically it is like throwing money out of the window don't buy Bucsh products. After a light work less than a month the head stopped holding the sanding paper I've changed the head three times and it's all the same thing after a year I threw it into the garbage literally.

Its not ment for sanding drywall bud you can get Drywall snaders with vacumes now!

Mine was terrible battery quickly became lose making it garbage!

Excellent sander but it has hella vibration! Kills my hand if I have a lot of wood to sand. Also, the dust collection is a joke. Otherwise, awesome sander.

claerly you never used a 500 dollar festool sander.. a entire table top in less than 5 minutes

These sanders have gone to crap, I used to get 5-7 years easy and I use it with festool hepavac( a whole nother story) anyway, I get 1/1.5 years now before the bearings start whistling or the band breaks. I refuse to spend $400/500 for r a special hepavac sander when I can spend 60$ every other year ( I’m not the smartest guy in the world) but it really sucks that dealt has no problem with selling disposable equipment…

don't know if it's already been mentioned - but turning on how new/old an orbital dewalt you have? WON'T FIT !!!!!! yea, that needs to be right up in FRONT of 'great tool' dialogue ... because you go spend nearly $30 for the WRONG PART ?!? Now you gotta buy an overpriced adapter for your adapter? Not good.

🍻🍺

Ok

Ur Funny!

I didn't know there were other tools than DeWalt. Everything else is a toy.

Bro it’s not vibrating lol!!! All random orbit sander spin and orbit hence the name random ORBIT sander lol that your feeling that you think is vibration is the orbit so they spin real fast and the whole pad orbits around in an off center orbit to offset the spin that’s what makes it random bro you crack me up small square sanders vibrates like a finish sander

SMEEESH™ TRZ. 👍
