Overview

A workshop bench or a job site is where this red metal and plastic tool earns its place. The box adds a guard, a handle and a wrench.

Bundled accessories make it ready for work once a battery is added. The limitation is the missing detail on disc diameter and power pack, and the wattage looks low for a grinder.

Who it's for

Metal grinding and cutting on site fit a battery powered tool. Heavy shop use may need a corded grinder with more power.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Side handle included
  • Metal and plastic body
Cons
  • Wheel size not listed
  • Battery not clearly included
  • Wattage looks low

Performance notes

Wheel speed and wheel size set the cutting rate, and the guard protects the user from sparks and debris. Run time depends on the battery attached. The listed power figure seems low and may not reflect the motor.
