3 Best Corded Random Orbital Sanders

When you're searching for the best of the best look no further than these three random orbital sanders form Festool, Bosch and, Porter-Cable. With uncommon innovation and the stamp of lasting, trailblazing manufacturers, these models will breath new life into your sanding projects while also energizing users with smooth, high-performance.

Festool's ETS 125 EQ random orbit sander is a stunning and highly effective sanding machine. Serious woodworkers truly rejoice at this high-performance, sander that, while small, performs like a miracle to smooth out all of your rough patches. Ideal for one-handed sanding, the tool is extremely lightweight at only 2.4 lbs. Because of this lightweight and the sander's compact design, the tool is perfect for sanding from any position - extended vertical and overhead work is far less strenuous while also yielding uncommonly smooth results. With the finest sanding stroke at 5/64" (2.0mm) the 125 leaves both pre-sanding and finishing jobs surprisingly flush and smooth, and with a shockingly effective jet-stream dust extraction system, the tool delivers clean finishes and always clean operation. With a meticulously concentrated stream of air, this system ensures smoother, more flawless finishes and increases the life of your pads, abrasives, and the tool as well. The sander is highly balanced with low vibration for smooth operation and superfine finishes, and with variable speeds and a fast break stop, the tool is simple to control throughout any degree of use. It is hard to put this tool down and even harder to pick up another once you've experienced the Festool difference.

On another hand, Bosch's 3725DEVS random orbit sander/polisher is one of the more veritable tools on the market today offering craftsmen a multipurpose power tool that out performs much of its competition. The sander features a pad that both orbits and rotates to duplicate meticulous hand-sanding for the most smooth, perfectly blended surface finishes. The tool has an impressive 3.3 amp motor with variable speeds ranging from 4,5000 - 12,000 OPM. This ensures you'll always have the most adequate speed to compliment each workpiece or task. Being smooth and powerful, the sander is ideal for both delicate fine finishing, or aggressive removal, and built with a die-cast aluminum gear housing and exclusive dual-bearing pad mount, the 3725DEVS is long-lasting and offers extremely low vibration operation. Additionally, its through-the-pad dust extraction system sucks dust and debris away from the work surface to enhance precision and fine-finishing; by consequence, it also increases tool and accessory longevity. The tool is comfortable to operate and its front handle can be easily removed to provide greater sanding access in corners and tight spaces.

Additionally, Porter-Cable's 390K (5") low profile random orbit sander kit is a truly dreamy little sander. Providing craftsmen with optimized power, speed, and control over the most delicate and most aggressive projects the tool is as versatile as it is handsome. Its 3.5 amp motor utilizes EnduraTech technology to extend the tool's life by a quite astounding margin and also ensures optimal performance and durability for the life of the tool. The sander's low profile design brings the body of the sander much closer to the workpiece producing a brilliantly smooth finish and providing you, the operator, with superior contact and control. The tool has variable speed settings from 7,000 - 12,000 OPM for the most optimized removal rate, and a consistently brilliant finish to a variety of materials. The tool's mechanical brake pad dramatically reduces spin-down time essentially eliminating the gouge factor from your projects, and with highly efficient dust collection options, ultra smooth finishes, and comfortable ergonomics, the sander is, well, a miracle machine.

Experiencing the high-performance of these random orbital sanders is something every craftsmen should strive for. Not only are these models smooth and comfortable to operate, but they yield continuously beautiful results that will impress and gladden you with every use.
