Customer Sentiment
Versatile & Light
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this variable speed angle grinder several months ago and love it! The variable speeds provide the versatility that you'd expect, but the light, easily held body allows me to use it with far more precision than the typical grinder. Plus, changing the wheel is simple.

Does the job
I've used it for tile and wood work. Holds steady at whatever speed it is set to. Good weight and balance. On/off switch is a little finicky getting used to in the beginning, but it's nothing that would make me not but it again.

Nice grinder
Smooth, quiet. I needed a variable speed grinder to miter & sand porcelain tile & this works great.

Best angle grinder I've bought
I've had 3 wired angle grinders before this one. Compared to the earlier tools, this is by far the most enjoyable one to use. I like it's small diameter so it fits my hand comfortably and I do have small hands. I appreciate the variable speed feature and the way it applies more torque as I cut or grind material.

Perfect for carving stone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I carve stone, such that I often use the tool one-handed (as I support the stone with the other), so it is important that I have a reasonably powerful, variable speed grinder which I can comfortably grasp with one hand. Virtually all other variable speed grinder designs are big fat things requiring two hands. So I was delighted to find the Metabo with the slender body. Very nice to use. It's my main workhorse. I use the variable speed function ...

Fantastic Grinder!
Great little grinder! Very smooth, does not bog down under heavy use, and quiet compared to other grinders. The smoothness and variable speeds of this grinders allows for fantastic finishing on products, as well as less skipping around. The ergonomics are great, which lead to being able to grind for much longer periods of time. Many hours have already been clocked using this grinder and it has not missed one beat. Love it!!

Absolutely Amazing!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tools today are not what they used to be. Working in the automotive fabrication industry, resilient and durable tools are needed to keep up with the demand of the job. I have tried many tool companies far and wide and normally stick to one particular brand. I recently decided to venture out and try another company's grinder. After looking, this is what I ended up with. All I can say is "WOW!". From the smoothness of it operating to the quietnes...
