Bosch 1295DVSK 2.2 Amp 5-Inch Palm Grip Variable Speed Random Orbit Palm Sander with Dust Canister Features New microfilter dust collector with integrated paper filter Random orbit sanding for aggressive stock removal and swirl-free finishing Ergonomic soft grip for comfortable control Integral pad dampening - prevents swirl marks Through-the-pad dust extraction for cleaner workplace
Bosch 1295DVSK 2.2 Amp 5-Inch Palm Grip Variable Speed Random Orbit Palm Sander with Dust Canister Description What sets this sander apart from the ever-growing pack of random orbitals is Bosch’s new Microfilter dust filtration system, which the maker says will trap particles 60 times smaller than a human hair. Eight dust ports on the pad surface extract the material up into the filter, keeping it out of your lungs. The sander itself, a palm model, is relatively lightweight and comfortable in hand, thanks to the ergonomic soft grip, yet the 2.2 amp motor will power rotations from 7,000 to 12,000 RPM with a turn of the speed adjustment dial. The variable speeds offer you a range of applications, from serious stock removal all the way up to fine finishing. Bosch says it’s swirl free, but you’ll still want to use caution when starting up to avoid those swirl marks. It’s inexpensive enough for the home do-it-yourselfer or hobby woodworker to own one, yet we can easily see this in a professional shop with Bosch’s long life and superior quality.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Bosch 1295DVSK 2.2 Amp 5-Inch Palm Grip Variable Speed Random Orbit Palm Sander with Dust Canister customer reviews: works for awhile Bought two of these based on recommendations from others. I am a boat builder and use these sanders three days/week. First the hook pads went out on them requiring new ones at $20/each after 6mos usage. Then the motor on one went out requiring replacement in the warranty period. Can't use either of them now and they will both require repair. They worked great while they lasted but didn't last too long. superior dust control Only sander that actually has great dust control that doesn't cost hundreds of dollars. Just keep the pleated filter clean with your air compressor and dump the dust after every project. The only better sander would be the festool ones with powered vac to match but I can't justify that for my shop. THIS IS A GREAT ALTERNATIVE. Good sander, few flaws When I had decided to become a woodworking hobbyist, I spent about 6+ months doing nothing but review tools. My goal was simple: find quality tools that I could learn with, make decent furniture with, would last me at least a couple years while I learned, and most importantly would not break the bank. I am still learning, I don't have a couple years under my (or my tools) belt yet, and I have build a few projects (mostly shop items.) Although it has only been a few things I have built, I have used all the tools I purchased. One of those tools is the Bosch 1295DVSK Random Orbital Sander. I can tell already, with minimal use, that some of the negative things said in other reviews are true but then again so are most the positives. The sander does have a slight wobble when you initially start it up - this could potentially damage a fine piece of wood. Bosch does sell softer sanding pads that would help minimize this effect. The dust "bag"/filter isn't all that it's cracked up to be but then again, there aren't many tools that have a great catch all dust bag - filter system. If you use it frequently, buy the optional vacuum attachment and hook that up. The sander also doesn't make good use of the center of the sandpaper with its "nickel-sized" hole and I could see it ripping out on corners but honestly, who would use a power tool like this to sand/round edges or corners and expect good results either on your work piece or your equipment?? Don't be afraid to use a little elbow grease...But I digress... This tool has more positive than negative. The on/off switch is easy to reach, the sander feels good in the hands, and the variable speed makes working with different woods possible. If you are looking for a good quality ROS that will give you above average results that is not going to break the bank then buy the Bosch 1295DVSK. If you are doing this for a living or working in your shop 30+ hours a week then buy the Festool Rotex RO 150 FEQ......for $475 Try something else I bought 2 of these mainly for the name I had not used one before. Not very happy with it. The dust canister leaks like a seive.It is pretty much useless for dust collection and it is hard to get the latches to stay closed and it falls off sometimes. the sanding pad for some reason only cuts at the edge of the pad. It is like the pad is cupped it also vibrates more than the Makita or Dewalt I have used. I won't buy this brand again. poor durability and dust collection I chose this sander based on a top review from fine woodworking, and as a woodworker, cabinetmaker and finish carpenter, my sanders get a fair amount of use. I like how it feels in my hand, most RO sanders are too big on top- unfortunately, that's about the only good thing I can say about it. The dust collector has never worked- I can sand all day, and barely anything makes it into the canister- my old dewalt with a cloth bag worked much better. The other problem is durability- in just over a year, I've replaced the hook and loop pad three times, and now the bearing for the orbit action has gone out, and the pad wobbles instead of sanding flat, resulting in a poor finish , and lots of vibration and torque. And you can't replace the bearing without replacing the entire fan/spinning assembly. I own a lot of bosch tools, but I feel like I've been throwing money and parts at this thing since I bought it. I just replaced it with a makita, and the dust collection is superb.
