Easy to use, effective and perfect for small jobs, February 26, 2008
Length:: 0:50 Mins
I bought this sander to redo my kitchen floors without the expense of ripping it out and starting from scratch. My floors were faded, scuffed and had a few finishing stains where an abrasive chemical was dripped in spots at one time. In a couple of hours, I sanded the entire parquet floor and applied a standard wood stain. In one evening of work and for less than 40 dollars, I feel like I have a new floor. The sander is fast, smooth and neatly collects the dust produced from the work. I don't know how I would feel armed with this small sander if I tackled a larger job, but for something as small as my kitchen floor, it was the perfect size.
PHOTO SLIDESHOW: Sorry that the pictures are a bit dark. In each picture, you should see three distinct surfaces: the dull, untouched floor, a white strip where I had sanded and a dark, shiny area where I had sanded and stained. If anyone has any hints on how I can make the pictures brighter, I'd be glad to listen.
