Ratings & Reviews for BLACK+DECKER 1.2 -Amp Detail Sander with Dust Management

Corners are easy

When trying got get in corners this thing is amazing

It gets the job done, but not the best.

The dust collector doesn’t do much of anything and the tight corner extender (or whatever you want to call it) is a hassle to swap and overheats quickly.

Best Little Sander

I had borrowed one from my boss and loved it more than another brand, so I had to get one. It is louder than other brands but more effective!

Work great but don’t have much longevity

I had one just like it and loved its usefulness; however, the sanding base failed, so I bought a replacement.

Dust Collector doesn't work

I had high hopes for this sander but really disappointed. Can't purchase replacement B&D papers, the dust collector doesn't work (at all).

Very easy to handle.

Great product, works great and can't into small corners. Has lots of power.

Great but little information about the detail ext

Nice size and handheld. Haven't tried the detail extension yet. Only downside is the precut sandpaper that fits this has two deficiewncies. One it seems to clog fairly fast and the cutouts (needed for the detail extension) seem to make the paper weaker in the front. That moinor point aside, great little sander

No longer the quality they were

I’ve completed several projects with one of these I purchased 8 years ago. The tip was wearing down so I bought a new one. Within 3 hours it looks as used as the one that is 8 years old. The velcro attachment melted around the edges of the attachment and I can no longer attach the sanding pad to it. Poor quality.

Great sander

I’ve always loved B&D products and this is jo exception!! It’s a great little sand and gets into those corners with the pointed end. It also has an attachment to get into narrower spaces!

Plastic Parts Broke Day 1

After about 1 hour of use the plastic gearing of this item broke. Do not buy.

okay for a few quick jobs.

the filter doesn't work well, the pile doesn't hold onto the sandpaper very long and you end up with perfect sandpaper but the backing is ruined and doesn't stick to the sander.

Garbage

It took several hours to go and get it and will take several hours to return it. It ran for approximately 17 seconds before the motor burned out.

What you need to work fine detail.

Sander was exactly what I needed and the 'detail' attachment - was able to work difficult to reach areas with precision. Has the power necessary to do the job and dust collector small, but effective.
