Sturdy and dependable:
I bought this grinder for use on my job, I'm the Maintenace Supervisor at a multi-use building, and have used it for a wide variety of jobs - everything from simply smoothing out a sticking metal framed door to cutting through rebar when we did some major remodeling. This grinder is easy to handle, being small and lightweight enough to get into a tight spot yet still has the power for tough jobs.

Dewalt D28110 4 1/2 in Small Angle Grinder:
I have owned several (other makes) of grinders. All have functioned for awhile but failed under heavy duty. I needed to get a replacement so I selected the Dewalt D28110.

I am glad I did buy this Dewalt grinder as it has worked perfectly so far and seems to be destined to work for many years. It is well constructed and I would agree with Dewalt's claim that it is "Heavy Duty".more info
Good grinder, but it ain't wrench free:
This is a great budget grinder. I used it with a diamond wheel to cut out grout on about 40 sf of floor tile. Put it through the wringer at load with lots of dust for a few hours and had no trouble.

It includes a wrench and the instructions do not explain how to remove the wheel without a wrench. I don't... more info
Solid as always:
I have had two of these units already and this grinder will last me over a year with no replacement brushes. I use it daily in my fabrication shop and any grinder that can go a year and withstand being dropped and kicked around frequently is a champ - especially at this price. An average user will be able to pass this unit on to a grandchild.
