Best Detail Sander on the market!
I was looking for a good sander for some projects I had coming up. This thing didn’t disappoint. Very balanced tool. Has different attachments the allow you to get into different tight spaces. The tool is relatively quiet and has pretty good dust collection with the provided bag and I also used it with a shop vac attached and performed excellent.

Limited capabilities in the US.
I purchased this tool recently for a project I needed its capabilities for, especially the "detail sheet" plate.

A big miss in my opinion.

I figured Bosch is a German brand, so I checked to see if...

Works well with generic sanding pads
Great lightweight sander with nice sized default pad. I almost didn't purchase due to the other reviews about difficulties finding the right sized pads, but did anyway and found some great inexpensive hook/loop paper that works great after adding holes (easy).
