The Bosch 6-inch random orbit sander/polisher is a multi-purpose, variable speed tool with a powerful 3.3 amp motor that ensures exceptionally smooth results no matter what surface you're working on. Its pad both orbits and rotates, duplicating natural hand-sanding action for a finish that looks like you spent all day and a whole lot of elbow grease. Chock full of performance and convenience features, this sander/polisher is designed for comfort and reliability.
The 3727DEVS has a rugged, die-cast aluminum gear housing with a Bosch exclusive dual-bearing pad mount that eliminates wobble and vibration -- plus an integral pad dampening system that helps prevent swirl marks for a fine, consistent finish. Its high-performance microcellular backing pad conforms to the contours of your workpiece, and the through-the-pad dust extraction system pulls dust away from the work surface to maximize sanding efficiency while extending your paper's life. This sander/polisher also offers Constant Response circuitry, which maintains constant speed under load and provides overload protection.
But it's not all work and no ease of use. The 3727DEVS is styled to be gentle on your hands because a firm grip means more precision and better accuracy. The tapered soft-grip top matches your natural hand angle, and the ergonomic handles allow multiple grip positions in order to prevent fatigue. The front handle even comes off, so it's easier to sand in tight spots. And the 3727DEVS is as comfortable to operate as it is to hold; its soft-start function reduces start-up torque for smoother performance, and the trigger has a lock-on button for long projects. Best of all, the Bosch microfilter dust canister has an integrated paper filter that captures dust particles as small as 1/2-micron in diameter, so there's less debris to block your view and clog your paper.
This sander/polisher uses 6-hole, 6-inch hook-and-loop discs, and it's double-insulated. Rated at 120 volts, the 3727DEVS has an eccentric offset of 5/64-inch. It operates from 4,500 to 12,000 rpm. This kit includes a pad wrench (5mm hex), soft backing pad, sanding disc, and a microfilter dust canister.
Applications Excellent for a wide variety of purposes, this sander/polisher will become a favorite go-to device in your workshop or garage. It removes stock and finishing material quickly, without scratching -- making it perfect for most sanding jobs, from wood floors to furniture finishing. With a buffing pad, it also buffs and polishes automobiles and boats to a professional-looking shine.

Sand Fast and No Dust:
I bought it mainly to sand down the inner skin of a cored floor deck in my fiberglass boat. Because I am sanding fiberglass, I am afraid that fiberglass particles may get onto my skin and make me feeling itchy. Therefore, I am trying this sander to see if its dust collection function can do the job in catching most of the dusts. I am not disappointed. After using it for half a day, I only see very few dust in the air (probably coming from two instances when I pulled the extension hose too hard and the hose... more info
For The Price This Sander Is The Only One To Have:
I have used this sander for at least 30 hours a month for a year hooked to a festool tool vac. I had no problems with it in all that time. The sander was also 2 years old before I started using it. Other than just wearing out the hook and loop pad a few times it is a solid sander. Most of the sanding I do is making solid wood flush to plywood without sanding through the veneer for mantels, lids to desks and the like. The sander has good control and is very stable dust control is very good with the use of a... more info
Sometimes Bosch hits it out of the park, other times it strikes out.:
This particular sander is mediocre at best, and I, like another reviewer, feel it's way overpriced for what you get. The one reviewer mentions how difficult to control this sander is and this is not an admirable quality in a power tool. But heck, one of their larger "sawsall" doesn't need a blade to take your arm off, it will just SHAKE it lose! This is typical Bosch, some of their tools, regardless of origin are just designed too poorly no degree of production could help or hinder the result. However,... more info
variable speed is worth it:
Before purchasing this sander, I had a Porter-Cable single speed random orbit sander--and I had very little control. Once that thing got revving, the only way to slow it down was to flick the on-off button. I wore out two of those buttons on the P-C. A single speed is just not adequate for light touch-ups. With variable speed, you can slow the Bosch way down just to do touch-ups without eating a hole in your wood. When you are really ready to eat wood, put it on high speed with some coarse grit, and... more info
