Bosch GEX 125-1 AE Heavy Duty Electric Random Orbit Sander, 250W, 12,000 rpm, 24,000 opm, 125 mm Pad Dia., Hook-and-Loop Fastening,1.3 kg + Microfilter box & Bosch Sanding Disc, 1 Year Warranty

Easy to use 😍, less vibration on the body, well the sound is like a F35 jet 😂 when sanding inside a room which is quite awesome 🤣.

This is an excellent product. Reasons for choice: 1) Bought for home use, to smoothen crude furniture made out of recycled wood 2) Bought Bosch for quality. 3) Picked this model for: a. All sand papers can fit b. Reasonably priced c) light weight and easy grip Experience: 1) Delivered on time, well packed. 2) Effective and smooth sanding, powerful motor, easy and confortable grip, good corner reach (just sanded a log with termite damage and reached in crevices and crannies) 3) Lo noise when machine is put to wood. Din noticeably increases when not in contact, but quite manageable and not an issue. Area for improvement: 1) Only 1 sand paper came with the product 2) The warranty card did not carry seller's name/stamp - so not sure who is covering my product. Hence, 1 star less. Overall, happy with the purchase. Recommended.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: Thats amazing product by bosh durabe. Its so handy and user friendly that even ladies can also use for general cleaning. Time saving: You ca do the work faster than usually it takes to do with hand.

This is the perfect sander for finishing work. I have a sander attachment to my angular grinder and that works fine for initial sanding or cutting where I want to remove a lot of material. But at its high speed it is impossible to adjust fine details. This is perfectly ideal for finishing work which gives me fine finishing in very less time. It is ergonomic and easy to attach the standard sandpaper sheets cut into 4. Apart from very cheap sheets, it works fine with all the standard sheets available at my local hardware store. It does not tear off the sheets. One thing to note is that it does not have dust management, but that also means I do not have to make holes in the sheet every time. And at this managable speed the dust is not too much. I had a makita finishing sander like this with dust management and even with that the amount of dust generated is not much different. And the quality is at par with other reputed brands. It has taken out my earlier sanding by hand almost altogether.

Product is goos when comes to doing its job. High speed vibration however caused tingling in my palm and fingers for sometime. It is not a good idea to use holed grits with it because even original bosch grit that came with it caused weird marks on the surface due to the punched holes. I received a very dirty piece with damaged packing. The package was not in Amazon box. The bosch box was damaged and the machine was bare inside it without any protection or cover. Did not expect this. The pain point is getting fine grits for this machine. Local shops do not have them and online they are very expensive and not available in right combinations. Not very happy.

Awesome product

The product was received as per the delivery date and came well packed. The unit is compact and fits easily in ones hand, and can be used continuously without any overheating. However the decibel level and vibrations in use are quite high, and causes numbness in the hand after prolonged usage. Also the clips to clamp the sandpaper are a bit fiddly, and already having problems with the clips not opening and requiring to be pried out from the locking lugs.

A must have for DIY furniture enthusiasts and painters. Renovated old furniture, removed all old polish with ease. Machine was also used to sand the cement from laterite stones. Using Bosch GEX 125-1 AE Heavy Duty Electric Random Orbit Sander made the job simple, else it would have taken long long time and labour to sand. Hrs of usage, no issues. Recommend removing dust collector while sanding cement or stone, better use a mask, else the small dust collector will be full in no time. Dust collector works well with wood, 70% dust reduction I can say, while sanding vertically, all dust will not be collected. Found no drawbacks. Worth the money spent.
