Nice
This is so nice to use that I'm ordering a second so I don't have to change the grade of sandpaper so often. I've had sanders in the far past but not nearly as good as this one. I'm wondering how much better the more expensive ones are.

I stopped buying craftsman tools when they switched to japanese tools under the craftsman name. They warrantied the tools but that didn't helped my knuckles ! Lied to again,1/3 sheet of sand paper doesn't fit this sander, the good Norton sandpaper is 3/8ths of an inch short. Sears sandpaper that comes with the sander is trash. They always change something so there tools are not interchangeable.

Toast

Loved if when I first got it. High RPM, smooth running and relatively quiet. Easy on the hands. Lately though it's been slow starting with RPM wandering all over the place and now a lingering electrical smell. While it seems reasonably well built the bearings and cooling system just aren't up to handling more than one or two small projects. Off to buy a non-Sears replacement.

Not standard 1/3 sheet

The sander works fine. Like the ability to hook to shop-vac. Problem is that standard 1/3 sheet is too small. The sheets that come with the sander work fine, but they are just a bit longer. Had to purchase full sheets and use the sheets that came with the sander to cut my own. A minor inconvenience, and other than that the sander is quite solid.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

don't buy

i had a B & D 1/3 sheet sander for 30 yrs that finally died. I searched everywhere for another 1/3 and finally found one made by Sears. No comparison.  With a 1/16 orbit it takes forever to do any work

 

I returned it

Sander and sandpaper

The Sander works real well,  however, the sheets are to be left to desire.  They broke after less than two minutes of sanding. 

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Buyer Beware. Mine only lasted three projects.

I have used Craftsman products since the 1970's with great results. This sander has great dust pickup, but you have to remember to punch the holes in each new sheet. My complaint is that my sander only lasted three projects, albeit large deck refinishing jobs. At $40 a pop that's not a good value. Repair vs. replace? Disappointed, yet will probably give one more a shot due to the excellent dust pickup. Grade: B -

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Adequate sander

Sander has done an ok job for me so far, but I have gone to a hardware store and picked up 1/3 sheets, and the sheets aren't long enough to remain attached. I would think that all sanders would use standard sheets that would fit any 1/3 sander. The sheets I purchased are about an inch shorter than the ones that came with the sander, and they won't hold. Do I have to purchase Sears sandpaper to use??

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Used on two projects and it went up in smoke.

I used this to make a bookcase last year.  Loved it at that time.  Doing some work in the house and I and got this sander out.  After using for a good amount of time.  It literally went up in smoke.  Leaving the smell of burnt electrical wires and smoke bellowing out of the sander.  Best part, it happened just after the one year warranty expired.  Craftsman just isn't what it used to be.
