Reviewed by:
Rosemary Thornton

Weary of orbital sanders that leave your whole arm vibrating, several hours after they're turned off? This hand-held sander has a grip covered in soft rubber for increased comfort.

The two-amp motor hits 12,000 rpm and has a dust collection bag to make it easier for both man (or woman) and machine to breathe.

SV13YA 5" Random Orbital Finish Sander is about 6" tall and weighs 3 pounds.

Retail price is about $80 (August 2006).
