Sure it's not cheap but good tools aren't. This is awesome. I'm using it for body work on a car project and it's making light work of it all. Just getting into hard to reach places and how quickly it sands away rust and paint is paying for itself. The tool lets you angle it so you can have it flat or 90 degrees to your work. Much safer than angle grinding everywhere. I find it really useful to strip paint off metal before welding it in place, whereas a grinder grabs and throws some small pieces if you don't lock it down, With this I can hand hold something and shape and finish it right at the job. It's well made and I really can't find anything to complain about. The description will tell you all you need to know so I won't double up here. I saw a competing brand in green but while it was cheaper it didn't have adjustable angles and didn't feel robust enough, pay the extra and you won't regret it.
