I have purchased every grit of Mirka sanding disks from Amazon, and I find them to be good quality. The price per disc works out to be a great value if you purchase them in packs of 50.

The 220-grit discs do a great job leaving a silky finish on wood. I use them on cutting boards and table tops, and when you're done sanding with the 220-grit, you are ready for applying finish.

I used these disks on my Bosch random-orbit sander. The hook-and-loop backing is strong and holds on through rough sanding. The aluminum oxide sanding material lasts for a good amount of time. I have bought other brands of sanding discs that do last longer, but the Mirka discs definitely hold up well.

The discs are packaged in a sturdy box with a cover, which makes it easy to dispense them as needed. Also, having them stored in a box keeps them clean, which helps the hook-and-loop function. This actually helps out a lot in the shop. Other brands come wrapped in plastic, and you have to find a container for them, or let them sit on a shelf and get full of sawdust. I appreciate this extra touch.

The paper stock is somewhat thin, but this does not really affect their use. Since they are stored in a box, they stay flat. Other brands, which are stored in bags, get curled up on the edges.

Bottom line: these are good quality sanding discs that last for a good amount of time, are a good value for the money, and are packaged in a convenient way.

First of all I have to say that the reason why I happen to be writing this review is because I was on Amazon ordering another box of these sanding discs! There is no higher praise in my book than a return customer!

Now for the review: I have to agree with the other positive reviews and say that I have long been a fan of these Mirka sanding disks. I am a home woodworker whose projects range from DIY stuff around the house, to refinishing, to building fine furniture projects. I have been using these discs for years (in every grit from 80 to 220) and could not be more pleased with the smooth surfaces they produce with my rather inexpensive sander.

I completely agree with the assessment that although these are not the absolute best hook and loop discs on the market, they have performed every task I have asked of them. Overall, I would give this product an A- for quality/performance, and an A+ for value.

the Mirkas hold up very well with very little build up and excellent edge wear

I like to get the boxes of sand paper so I don't run out. These match my Dewalt DW421 just like they are suppose to.

They line up easily and are easy to attach and detach later. But they stay put while in use.

IMHO, just as good as major brands sold at home stores. Good cut, low clog, long life, secure fastening. I have used on soft wood, hard wood, painted surfaces and metal.

I use them all the time for my woodworking business. I save money and these disks work excellent. I order them by the thousand!

Five star rating. My finishing crew can use up to 100 discs a week, these discs are as good as if not better then Norton Gold, far better then Gator, better then 3m as well as Makita.

This does what it's supposed to and does it well. I use on my Bosch sander and it sticks good and gives me good usage. They use good sand particles that adhere well and enough of them so it wears well, (you may not go through as many as other brands) the velcro holds properly and the holes line up perfect.

These were purchased for my Bosch orbital sander. They work great, especially if one remembers to start and stop the sander when it is on the wood. Otherwise it could come flying off after some use; but when used diligently as directed, works great. So much better than anything I found at the Big Box stores, who never really have a wide selection of anything decent.

In both vertical and horizontal applications the Mirka sanding disks stays put, doesn't slide around and outlasts their competition. I used them on my Porter Cable Orbital sander with dust collection and I haven't experienced any clogs or dust accumulation around the holes. What else is there to say?
