JasonS Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 I'm looking for recommendations for a 6" random orbit sander. The Festools are great, I've used them many times, but I can't justify the $380-$510 price point. So what do you use and recommend (or stay away from)?

drzaius Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Bosch ROS65VC is excellent. Very smooth running & powerful. Dust collection, even without a vacuum, is quite good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom King Posted May 14, 2020 Report Share Posted May 14, 2020 This one might be almost as much as the green ones, but I have one, and love it. I use it with a Shop Vac with yellow Hepa bag, and it's either a beast, in beast mode, or a Really good finish sander in regular mode. I use the Mirka mesh disks with it, and dust collection couldn't be much better. https://www.amazon.com/GET75-6N-Bosch-Lijadora-orbital-eléctrica/dp/B07WK42NC5/ref=sr_1_3?crid=39JKY06BCUXEG&dchild=1&keywords=bosch+6+random+orbit+sander&qid=1589414254&s=hi&sprefix=bosch+6"+random%2Ctools%2C342&sr=1-3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
