Verdict

A dual-mode sander that switches between random orbit and forced rotation — unique in this class. The 750W motor and 150mm pad handle aggressive stock removal and fine finishing equally well. The MAKPAC case and soft pad make it a complete kit out of the box.

Pros

  • + Dual-mode: random orbit + forced rotation
  • + Powerful 750W motor for aggressive stock removal
  • + 150mm pad for large surface coverage
  • + MAKPAC systainer case included

Cons

  • Heavy at 2.6 kg — fatiguing for extended overhead use
  • Noisy at 93 dB
  • Higher price point due to dual-mode capability
  • Larger footprint limits access to tight areas
