I bought a reconditioned Bosch fom the repair center 7 years ago with
the velcro pad. It works fine for me. Sanded stuff while I built the
house including hardwood floors and steps and one car I repainted. As
you can see from other posts everyone has their favorite if they have
used more than one. I just have experience with a few Bosch disk
sanders.

I was shopping for a ROS and visited the local Sears store. They had
several available. There was a Porter Cable (2.2 A), Dewalt (2 A) and
the Craftsman (3 A and 3.2 A). I'm very temmpted by the more powerful
Craftsman and wondered if anyone here has opinions of the different
tools.

My level of woodwork makes the 6" ROS seem pretty pricy.
