Overview

A workshop bench or a room being finished by hand is where a sander like this earns its place. The Milwaukee random orbit sander runs on an eighteen volt style battery pack and is listed with fine grit.

The reason to buy is a cord free sander for finishing work where an outlet is awkward. The limit is the sparse listing, with no pad diameter, orbit speed or dust collection described.

Who it's for

Furniture, trim and drywall touch up are the typical uses, particularly away from outlets. If you plan to sand large floors or decks, choose a bigger tool, since this body is compact.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Cordless, no cord drag
  • Random orbit pattern limits swirl marks
  • Fine grit listed
Cons
  • Pad diameter not listed
  • Orbit speed not listed
  • Battery inclusion not confirmed

Performance notes

A random orbit motion spins and oscillates the pad at once, which reduces the swirl marks of a plain rotary sander. Grit size controls how aggressively it cuts, and fine grit is for finishing. Battery capacity sets how much sanding you finish per charge.
