3M Drywall Finishing & Pole Sanding Essentials

Good, but left black marks

It made sanding a floor really easy. But it left a black line when the base contacted the floor, which I realized after one swipe and then had to sand the black marks by hand (arghh). I ended up just putting a cloth around the bottom and then putting the sandpaper on top, which actually worked pretty well since the cloth gathered some of the dust. Overall, it saved us from some back ache. We used it for light sanding on new unfinished wood flooring. We wanted a light sand before we finished i...

Don't buy it

It doesn't hold the sand paper very well

Plastic

Claps are plastic , got one day of sanding and they broke ok for the price , but I don’t want to buy more than one a day

Terrible for ceilings

Two flimsy and all over the place. Good luck trying to do a back-and-forth sanding motion on the ceilings. It flips around is not sturdy. I do not recommend. I will hand sand over using this. Waste of money and most importantly, the wasted effort of trying to use it.

Unusable product

I can't tell you how frustrating this is to use. I wound up hand sanding the wood floor and walls at my off grid camp with folded pieces of sand paper because this was completely unusable. The clamps have very little tension and they come off in as little as 3 seconds. Applying a lot of downward force on the sander so the paper has more friction fit against the foam pad puts less force when you are moving the sander on the clamps, and sometimes you can get through a few minutes, but that is rare...

Worked as expected

This device made sanding before and after the first coat of paint quick and easy

Should have gone with the other option

I only needed to do some ceiling patches so this cheapie seemed like a good idea at the time. However it is flimsy and the pieces that are supposed to hold the sanding material don't actually clip. There are no springs, just some little points that are supposed to hold once the almost a clip is pressed down which if you're sanding the ceiling fall back open. My rating, total junk and I would return it however it's not worth the cost in gas.

Works but...Mediocre

I bought this to lightly sand new drywall that had some roughness after being primed. It's nice to be able to put this on an extension pole for our 9' ceilings and vaulted living room however it is not the easiest to keep it flush with the wall. The swivel for the handle is not the best and you have to be careful in how quickly/aggressively you move along the wall or it will turn over to it's side and mark or scrape the wall. It's also annoying that this takes a little more than a third of a sa...
