Great little grinder, just don’t buy from CPO Makita
This paddle switch grinder is a step up from the cheap ones you will find at places like Home Depot. It has enough power and is easy to use. Our company goes through a lot of grinders, as we work on concrete only where they [...]

Somewhat disappointed
I’ve had good luck with Makita over recent years, so I picked this hammer drill up on sale at HD. It seems well-made and powerful, but I’m disappointed in the keyless chuck, which cannot grab any hammer drill bit very tightly, leading to the chuck spinning around a stationary drill bit on occasion. The [...]

Go Green!
Let’s get the visual appearance out of the way first, shall we? Not everyone is going to like the high tech look of this tool (although I personally happen to love it). If you look at other Japanese power tool manufacturers such as Makita and Panasonic you’ll see they are also using [...]

“Steppin Up”
“Loved It!” Just finished a large trim project at home and couldn’t be happier. This sander was smooth, quiet and easy to handle. I still have an old Makita BO4510 sander(12+ years old) that still works great but this one is even better yet. The hook-and-loop sand paper was easy [...]

Love it!
I hestitated to buy this as I’ve heard stories from friends that many of these beasts don’t have much torque to them. Well, I shouldn’t have waited, this model is pretty much what I was hoping to get. It’s got great battery life and plenty of torque. The ergonomics are good, but [...]

Powerful, fast. Wobbling chuck
I compared this drill with Milwaukee 0824-20 and it is much faster and powerful than Milwaukee. Makita took 39 secs to drill a 1/2 inch hole in 4 inch concrete block (not hollow). Milwaukee did the job on 52 sec.
Both Batteries drilled 5 holes and then died. Milwaukee is super heavy makita [...]

Better than expected (with update)
After reading all the other reviews, I expected to have problems with the 1.5 AH but they work fine. I did a time test with the flashlight and they lasted 2 hours each. Using it on the impact/driver for handy work it lasted all day. This may not [...]

Best small sander & tough enough.
I bought one of these Makita sanders some years ago. I use it for finish work on the boat, and or various house projects, like the outdoor furniture. It does a wonderful job, is light weight, and easy to control. I have used it with paper from [...]
