This review is from: Factory-Reconditioned Bosch 1278VSK-46 Compact Belt Sander (Tools & Home Improvement)

I bought mine from a tool service center to sand on hardwood floors on an outside porch on edges and corners and between the numerous upright posts,which it does with no problem, making it look and really be "Quick and easy". The tight radius of the tip gets"hard it get to"jobs done easily with a speed you can set easily with the dial.At slower speeds it smooths like a dream and quiets down too,although it whines at the higher speeds so ear and dust protection is needed.Also care is required when holding that fingers don't move onto the belt and it's pinch points. All in all I've found it an excellent tool for many jobs,auto and home,far beyond for what I purchased it.

Although I wasn't looking for a reconditioned tool, I have no complaints with this purchase. It looks like new and comes with a manual and case. It performs well and I didn't even have to adjust the tracking on the belt that comes with it. I'm refinishing my kitchen cabinets and this tool is very helpful in sanding the narrow places.
