Review: Ranked one of the best for its safety features. - I rarely buy cheap tools, but for some reason I bought a cheesy bargain bin grinder that I was using to strip the inside of my kitchen cabinets. I had it locked on when it grabbed the inside corner and got ripped out of my hand. Nine stitches later with a gnarly gouge to the bone between my fingers I decided to find the safest angle grinder available. Lesson learned! The Milwaukee has a paddle switch with a safety button to prevent the switch from being accidentally turned on. It has a brake that stops the tool within a second after the switch is released. There is no mechanism to lock it in the on position. Once your hand releases the switch, intentionally or otherwise, it shuts down. It is extremely well balanced and heavy-ish which is telling of a quality tool. I bought third party batteries, so I can’t say how the Milwaukee batteries are. The one I bought only comes with a six inch guard. Was it worth the money?? For all of the safety features built into it, the answer is yes! It’s a powerful tool with considerably high speed. I have other Milwaukee tools that I’ve had for years and they’re bulletproof. I would buy this again if I needed another one.
Review: Fantastic Grinder! - Grinders arrived promptly and were packaged very well. Very nice construction and easy to change-out grinding disc's or wheels. I really like the versatility of the grinder to switch from 4-1/2" to 6" on the fly! Very Powerful and Rugged Grinders! Braking system is excellent. I enjoy using this grinder without having to change batteries every 5 minutes. Top of the line grinder! I can use 1 tool for the job instead of having to get a bigger/smaller grinder while working. 5 star product and seller!
