4.0 out of 5 stars
Great little grinder, just don't buy from CPO Makita,
By
This review is from: Makita 9557PB 4-1/2-Inch Angle Grinder with Paddle Switch (Tools & Home Improvement)
This paddle switch grinder is a step up from the cheap ones you will find at places like Home Depot. It has enough power and is easy to use. Our company goes through a lot of grinders, as we work on concrete only where they take a beating and suffer under the conditions. This grinder is better than most, while affordably priced. The metal case is cool, too.
On a side note, DO NOT buy any equipment here from "CPO Makita", as they are nothing but a bunch of crooked re-sellers pushing defective equipment that they refuse to return or replace. Buyer beware - they stole from me with no remorse whatsoever, and they managed to keep my feedback off the web page, thus this oddly placed warning! Please be careful. I've never had a problem with items purchased directly from Amazon!

Broke after 1yr use,

This review is from: Makita 9557PB 4-1/2-Inch Angle Grinder with Paddle Switch (Tools & Home Improvement)
Works great. The paddle switch is very nice and allows you to have a firm grip on the grinder before you fire it up. Excellent tool. Great price.
1yr update Worked great for a year. Now the gears are slipping and the the grinding wheel does not turn. I was hoping to get more use out of it. I thought Makita's had better longevity. Certainly not worthy of 5 stars. Maybe 3 stars.

Mine died after 30 minutes use,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Makita 9557PB 4-1/2-Inch Angle Grinder with Paddle Switch (Tools & Home Improvement)
Amazon shipped quickly. The grinder is a comfortable size and weight. The paddle switch is easy to use and is a nice safety feature. I've used it now for 2 jobs but it suddenly died on the 2nd job - after no more than 30 minutes total combined use. I used it when it arrived to cut cabinet openings into Hardieboard (concrete board), a 20 minute job. I used it again two weeks later to cut three 18 in square concrete pavers in half. After 5-10 minutes use, it just stopped working while I cutting the 3rd paver. I now have to send it to a factory service center and I hope they replace it with a new one without a hassle.
12/5/08 I had this repaired under warranty. I was told by the factory-approved service ctr that the problem was a broken wire. No further problems since it's been serviced.
