I teach shop in a Junior High School. Over the years I have used almost every brand of 4" X 24" Belt Sander. The Milwaukee sander is light, well balanced, sands smooth even when changing directions on large flat surfaces and is very durable. I always tell people, "If it can survive Junior High, it is good" Our sander has been in operation for 6 years and has performed flawlessly without breakage or failure.

I bought the Milwaukee 5936 about 2 weeks ago and am very pleased with it. When you turn it on you can feel the power and upon setting it on the wood, it does all the work. All you have to do is guide it. I used it on 2" thick maple and it took off 1/8" in no time. You can also lift the front of the sander up and with the front roller sand curved legs, though an oscillating sander would be better. A great sander that I would recommend to anyone looking to buy a 4x24" belt sander.

I have been a carpenter for 17 years and I will not use any other belt sander than the 4"X24" Milwaukee 5936. The one that I currently use for work is over 10 years old and still works perfect (with the exception of replacing parts that have worn out from years of abuse). This sander is balanced very well, has plenty of power and weighs less than comparable models. Actually, there are no comparable models, because this is in a class all by itself. This is the King of belt sanders. I have used others including Makita and Porter Cable, but none of them even come close. If you want the Best, spend the money. You will not regret it.
