This review is from: Ingersoll Rand 311A 6-Inch Heavy-Duty Air Dual-Action Quiet Sander (Tools & Home Improvement)

I like this sander very much. It is all that was advertised. The only thing that I do not care for is that it is a bit more air hungry than others that I have used. This would be less of a problem with a Very High CFM air compressor. A minimum CFM requirement would have been useful in making a choice. Still, for the money, it is a great buy.

In the words of Tony the Tiger, "it's great!"

As the saying goes, you get what you pay for. I could have purchased a cheaper unit from one of those local freight stores, but they dont carry the world leader in air tools. Do yourself a favor and buy an IR.
