So far so good
Works well on our 2x4 boards that were untreated. Wish it had a shop vac rubber band to attach it to. We used duct tape which I really hate doing but the shop vac collected most of the shavings.

GREAT VALUE
Read a lot of professional woodworkers claiming this to be a great value sander for beginners.The tools seems to have plenty of power and allows for sanding with some speed.I haven’t done much sanding with it yet but the little I have the dust collection seems pretty good.

Comfortable to use and good power.
The only reason I gave it four instead of five stars is because it was advertised as easily fitting a vacuum from a standard vacuum hose. I couldn’t get it to do that. It doesn’t come with the adapter. Otherwise a good little sander. Especially for the price.

nice sander for the money
Probably 5 star is a little high, but nice sander for the money. I replaced a Ryobi and a Rigid. The Craftsman is much better. The other sanders seemed to jump around when placing them on the wood. If you applied any pressure (I know that you are not supposed to push down) they would stop spinning. The Craftsman doesnt spin (it vibrates) until you place it on the wood and then it starts to spin. That makes it much easier to control. I dont think that it leaves as many marks as the others and removes more wood, not sure how that happens. Negatives; doesnt have variable speed (not sure that I ever need it), dust collection is almost non existent with bag and hard to connect shop vac to. It appears to be the same sander as the Dewalt, just different color and cheaper.
