Good Machine NO Problems!
Bought the machine at Lowes a couple years ago(2003). I've had no problems whatsoever with it! I use it to both grind and buff various materials. Plenty of torque and the variable RPM lets me fine tune the SFPM for buffing everything from plastic to stainless. Not a production type machine but good cost/benefit. A really fine diamond dressing tool was included which...

they are probably all reconditioned
I bought this grinder new at Lowes, and did not use it for about 6 months.

This review is from: Factory-Reconditioned DELTA GR450R ShopMaster 8-Inch Grinder (Tools & Home Improvement)
I bought this grinder new at Lowes, and did not use it for about 6 months. Once in my new shop, I installed a new light bulb following the easy assembly of the components, turned on the motor and the light bulb blew out instantly, probably due to the heavy vibration from the imbalanced wheels, and within about 1 minute the variable speed control would not function. I managed to balance the wheels with the dressing tool that is supplied, and the grinder runs on full speed now all the time. I will probably buy a new speed controller from a local electronics store to fix it myself. I am reluctant to buy any more Delta products due to the poor quality of this tool.

Plenty of torque and the variable RPM lets me fine tune the SFPM for buffing everything from plastic to stainless. Not a production type machine but good cost/benefit. A really fine diamond dressing tool was included which keeps the grinding wheels running smoothly. Note: I worked in manufacturing for 30 years and have used 12-15 HP grinding machines (grey iron foundry) and 6-8 HP buffing machines (plastic and soft metal CNC machine shop).
