I haven't had much of a chance to use this yet, but I wanted to review it purely for the accessories that came in the box. The additional base pad with the mouse-style point nose is very useful and makes this a versatile piece of equipment. In addition, there is a sanding pad perforator. I would recommend this over the round orbital.

Some reviewers say this sander is not very powerful but it worked fine for me. More powerful than the mains sander that I bought it to replace. Handy to have the option of using purpose made velcro backed sand paper or using a clamp for normal sandpaper sheets cut to size. The usual high standard Makita build quality.
