5 Star, for Certain Situations
Would RecommendThis is a biased opinion because I've been battling elbow and wrist issues, so if you are as well, hopefully this review helps.

Bagged is good, but it kicks so the inevitable waste you get (unless you're a pro) offsets the cost savings. Dust production is better than other brands but you still must wear a mask. Biggest con is that you really need to paddle mix or you'll get a million pinholes.

Easy to sand down
