Accessories hard to find,
By A Customer
This review is from: Makita 9523NBH 4-Inch Angle Grinder (Tools & Home Improvement)
I've owned mine for about 4 years and am content with the power, performance and price. However, this grinder uses a smaller mounting shaft than the incrementally larger 4 1/2" grinders. I am finding that accessories like wire brushes and such are getting more and more scarce in store shelves. Home Depot, which sells this grinder, did not have any brushes for this tool when I recently visited. If you're only going to use grinding wheels, you can probably find them easily enough. I believe the small size of this tool also limits the maximum diameter of wheels and brushes. You can certainly save a nickel by getting this one, but unless you are on a super-tight budget, get a 4 1/2" version. One positive on this tool: if I'm not mistaken, it is designed to be used with AC and DC power, so you can run it off of a generator.

Nice tool for the money,

I like to have a little more versatility in my tools but for the same price as a Skil grinder you can have the quality name of Makita.

Great Grinder! But a 4.5" grinder would be better.,

This review is from: Makita 9523NBH 4-Inch Angle Grinder (Tools & Home Improvement)
I bought this grinder 3 years ago and it is still kicking. I use it for cutting tile, concrete backerboard, AND grinding cement areas.
As with any power tool you must be patient with them and not to overload them. When applying pressure to the unit do not let the RPMs decelerate too low otherwise the unit WILL burnout. When I purchase my next grinder it will be a 4.5" grinder because most accessory blades do not come in this 4" size.

Burnt Out,
By "peter0526" (Nashua, NH United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Makita 9523NBH 4-Inch Angle Grinder (Tools & Home Improvement)
This grinder worked fine with a four inch tile blade to make hand cuts on ceramic tile and slate.I used it with a segmented blade to chase a hairline crack on a concrete floor I was preping to tile and it burnt out after about four linear feet.I would not recomend it for anything but light duty use.
