This sander comes fully equipped with a hard case, ample supply of sandpaper and a very nice LONG electrical cord. With its dust collection capability and vacuum port, it can be used with no mess.

My BD mouse gave up in a puff of blue smoke even though it hadnt done a lot of work so I decided to change brands. Hadnt heard anything about GMC so I looked on their website, Australian company who look lke they have some pretty good looking tools. Bought this sandkat as it takes the mouse paper and am wrapt I did, its got more power than the mouse is comfortable to handle. Will be giving GMC another look when I need some more tools.
Great 2 in 1 sander

This is definitely a cool sander, I call it a 2 in 1 as it does all the finishing jobs and with the piont on the front I can get into the tight areas. I looked at the mouse and this one and decided on this as it seems more practical, no need for me to buy all those accessories with the mouse that I probably would never use. This does all the small jobs I need it to do and when I have a larger job I use my belt sander first and smooth things off with this one. Its not designed to do heavy work all day but handles the small jobs with ease. I really like the soft grip that helps keep the vibration down and is also small enough for my wife to use.

We build custom furniture and needed something to get into tight spots. This sander works for us, little heavy but great price.
Nice compact sander.

It is a little "buzzy" in your hand, but very good value. Nice sander, dust port, nice case.

The sander works great and for the price you can't beat it. The on-off button is a little tricky, though. So if it cost more I would have rated it lower. The dust port is compatable with my dirt devil hand vac...what a convenience...I am renovating a 100+ year old house...it made restoring the old beat up wood work a lot easier than hand sanding...

I also compared this to my Black Decker Mouse, and I'm disenchanted. I miss all the neat attachments that come with the mouse for detail fininshing. I have a higher powered 1/4 sheet sander for my more agressive work and reserve my Mouse for all the fine details. the GMC just doesn't get in all those tight places. If you're using this sander as your primary sanding tool, you'll be there a long time. Try stepping up to a 1/4 sheet or a Ros (with a little more muscle) and buy a new mouse to get into those impossible spots.
OK for the price paid

I bought this on sale. For the price, it is an OK mouse sander. Be aware that the dust port, doesn't not function as describe. I would give the dust port 1 star. It works well enough. Also, it should bring a small bag or some to place over the dust port, that is NOT included.
I haven't used it yet but...

for $12 who cares. I have the GMC compound mitre saw that I got for $50 and it is great, so I am sure this is too. I plan on using it to fix up my wife's dumpy furniture that she got from her parents.
