This handheld sander is of ingenious design. The Velcro system makes the strip and clip sander seem so primitive. Most important feature for me is comfort and ease of use - no more hand fatigue. And the tool gets into tight spots as efficiently as it covers the larger surfaces. I did use the finger attachments...review »
I was given this sander as a gift. I used it to sand my cabinet doors for refinishing. It worked great for about the first 10 doors then it started vibrating hard and loud as if something had come loose inside. I was able to finish the project, but barely. I love Craftsman tools and was disappointed...review »
I purchased this sander at my local Sears store. I am a hobbyist and for this job I am building a radio controlled air boat from a kit. I liked it because it reminded me of a triangular detail sander that I lost in my divorce. It has the size of a palm sander but the flexibility of a detail sander. I particularly like the ease of changing sand paper. I like not having to cut paper from a sheet and fiddle with a lever or screwdriver, just peel the old sheet off and stick the new one on. I have not used any of the attachments and I absolutely love the sander. I have told my hobby friends about it....review »
Virtually no vibration compared to my finishing sander yet works just as fast. The pointed tip and accessories make even the hardest places easy to navigate. IMHO it's worth the extra $10 to get a few more pieces of sandpaper and the carrying case to hold everything together. The only negative I can find is the cost of sandpaper at about $1 per piece. Since you attach it with velcro you can't cut your own. The sandpaper is good quality grit however and lasted a long time. I really like this mouse!
When browsing through Sears one day I mentioned to my husband that the Mouse Sander was something that I would not mind having. Well what do you know guess what I got for Mother's Day. I was disappointed for quite awhile because what mother wants power tools for a gift like Mother's Day. But aftre I used it I was so happy that my husband had decided to get it for me. I have used it on household projects as well as helping my son out with a science project. I recommend that everyone keeps one of these in their garage. It is very compact and handy, it is the best power sander hands down.
I bought this sander to refinish a wicker shelf and initially I was hand sanding, but it got to be too time consuming and just too hard trying to get into all the curves and weave designs in the wicker. With all the interchangeable finger attachments, I was able to get down into the tightest of curves with no problem whatsoever! It's a timesaver and a handsaver as well. I have carpal tunnel in both hands and believe me -- this sander will not aggravate it at all! Highly recommended for all kinds of projects - from refinishing to crafting!
I bought this sander to get in the small sections of a kitchen island I'm refinishing. My orbital sander is too big to sand inside some decorative moldings and of course can't get into corners. This little sander takes care of these areas and saves alot of arduous hand sanding.The reversible and replaceable tips are great, and the finger attachments make sanding in grooves easy.Great sanding kit.Well worth the money.
I had my first mouse stop working and bought another one. I sanded a vanity with it and my son-in-law borrowed it because his mouse that I bought him for Christmas had stopped like mine and lo and behold my new mouse quit also. All 3 had the same problem. The mouse will not last.
I bought this product to quickly sand my baseboards for repainting, and to strip and refinish some furniture. It is great! Handles well, has the right attachments, is easy to use, powerful. I had it going for several hours - no problem. Great value. My favorite new tool!
This sander is one of Craftsman's best products. It's very functional and versatile and getting replacement paper for it is easy since it's available at my local hardware store. I highly recommend this product!
I bought this for my husband for Christmas..he found it early.
He said it was such a time saver on the project he's working that it might even get done before Christmas.
Thank you Craftsman!
