[@STXBARNES-fi7ho]

This sander is only $280 at Lowe’s right now. I will be picking this up tomorrow. Thanks for reviewing this for us Matt. God bless you and your family.

[@Christopher._M]

I saw it as low as 220 on Amazon a few months ago. Since it's November I would not be surprised if that deal becomes available in the next 2 weeks

[@michaellpeterson]

I got it for $209 before tax in July. Now I need to open the box. ;)

[@frankshannon3235]

They are out of stock on the web site and at the Lowes near me.

[@specialsauce305]

I have the Bosch and love it. I rebuilt and sanded a 27’ boat with it and it held up great.

[@CorwinBos]

This is a modernized version of the excellent Bosch 1250 DEVS which is a ridiculously powerful sander. My only knock on the Bosch sanders like these? Running them one handed is very tiring but Ive never run the Festool Rotex so I cant compare it to the Bosch. Ive found it to be very good for fast material removal but still good enough to do fine sanding on solid wood.

[@ericmann1781]

It feels well balanced using it one handed sanding walls, but you're right in my experience as well, using it one handed sanding slabs tires the arm out quick.

[@paullukoskie6955]

I’ve had the Bosch 6” 1250 for years. Love it. It’s a great tool.

[@jrm523]

I recently bought this sander and LOVE it. The cool thing about the dust collection piece is that it unclips so you can use it as a vacuum to clean your workspace or sanding pad. I'm so glad it compares well to the Festool. 😊

[@mesoed]

My local saw mill actually had me try the Bosch last time I stopped by. They had purchased several over the last year or two for their builds and couldn't help but praise it up and down.

[@ns_racing]

I've had the bosch get-75 for a few months and absolutely love it! Well worth the investment. Also the bosch can be ordered from certain vendors with a systainer with a mold for the tool as well

[@ScottTaipaleRail]

My first factory job was sanding doors at Kraftmaid Cabinetry, we used dewalt sanders. I will never pick up another dewalt because they vibrated so bad after a few days use. This Bosch looks like it’s coming home with me soon though. Just like that Hercules dust extractor I bought right after watching your review.

[@cloudy4872]

oh my god the dewalt sanders are horrible. i use a dwe6421 and it’s impossible to use after a while

[@shanemelville]

I have owned this sander for 4 years now. It is unbelievable I use it all the time. In fact its my go to sander. just a bit over a year of owning it. I had a static charge through my hose and it was shocking me, so much so that it killed up the sander. It stopped working. even though it was out of Warranty Bosch still honored their warranty. They fixed the sander and I have not had a problem with it since. Just make sure you are using an anti static hose with it. YOu wont regret buying it.

[@ericmann1781]

Good to know, I've always used the festool vac on it more by fluke since I don't use it for small jobs. Now if i ever go to use it on a small job I will avoid using any of my smaller vacs that don't have anti static hoses. Thank you.

[@jamespape9916]

Well done, as usual! I've had the Bosch for a number of years, it's a beast. I bought a systainer for it. I have a Rotex 90 (3" with a delta attachment; - ! and a finish sander.

[@margueritewhite3038]

Bought the Bosch for $238 on Amazon in Oct. LOVE it and the vibration is not bad at all, that's why I wanted to upgrade. It is a beast in Turbo mode but not too hard to handle!

[@lbrick64]

I got the sander for almost 2 years now I've had excellent results with the sander it's fantastic sander Bosch is always been fantastic with Sanders and grinders. Also you can buy a box for it for probably $60 that will fit it just fine great sander

[@ashutoshsrivastava303]

Sander was the first power tool I upgraded and chose the 5in version of this bosch. This has changed the sanding game for me. Turbo mode has removed any need for belt sander and regular mode product excellent finish on the wood. Turbo model is really a beast and you need to hold it well and I am glad for the attached tube to hold it like an angle grinder. This coupled with 3M sandpaper is all what anyone need for any sanding job (may be add milwaukee m12 detail sander). I was surprised at that time that not many people in US are using this. Bad marketing from Bosch! Currently using it with a shop vac which still produces great dust collection but looking to upgrade to hercules dust extractor. Great review!

[@ericmann1781]

Same experience, any big job I go straight to this sander. When I was researching an alternative to the expensive festool, I only found 2 or 3 youtube videos on this sander and bought it early 2021 when stock finally showed up during the whole supply chain nonsense. I haven't touched my smaller belt sanders since, I even only used my 4 x 24 Makita belt sander once on a table with seriously offset expansions. Even after all these years I've never seen anyone else with this sander, it's still so rare I even had to order the protector pads from the UK since I can't find them in Canada.

[@stanleysmith8984]

The Maxxt sander comes with a removable pad that can use 5- or 6-inch disc. I got this one and a triangle one to get in those difficult spots.

[@dhicks1203]

I bought the 5 inch based on this video. All my other sanders take 5 inch discs, so I decided to start in that size. One of the best purchases I've made for sure. Cut my sanding time in half at least. Thank you Matt for the excellent content and the advice.

[@jbn0613]

I’ve had the 5” version of the Bosch for about 3 years now. It’s a beast and I’ve had no issues at all with it. Put it in turbo mode, put two hands on it and hang on. 👍🏼

[@ericmann1781]

Bought this in 2020 and have used the crap out of it, even used it for sanding half the walls of an apt before painting. I originally wanted the festool but could not justify the price at all, so I did my research and found the Bosch. Gets really warm after 2 hours of constant sanding but always held up. I would definitely buy it again, it's an amazing sander.

[@frankshannon3235]

What about polishing mode? That's where the Rotex really shines. You can put 2000 grit and up and get a dense grain board to shine like glass. That could be the hook for me.

[@randallwoodward5542]

Good review, I own this Bosch sander and love it! it was a game changer for me when deciding to up my sanding game. I own some festool stuff, but could not bring myself to buy the sanders they have due to price. I own majority bosch tools so I picked this up hoping it was going to be great. highly recommend to anyone looking for a 6" sander.

[@calebwolff5983]

I have this sander. It is a power house at removing wood quickly!

[@SandyMasquith]

Kudos to Bosch for making a high quality sander. I've been debating the Rotex for a while, but I think the Bosch will be my choice for sure. I can always make a "systainter" for it using Packout/Techstack/whatever and some shadow foam or 3d print some custom pieces for the storage box. Regardless, $300 for the Systainer is just too much. Thanks for making this video, Matt! Great information, well presented. Very high quality audio and video.

[@cuebj]

Excellent video. I'd just searched for it to refresh my memory about it. Slightly surprised you've found it so recently. But your reviews are always worth watching. Adding a soft and hard pad is expensive and, of course, it comes in a cardboard box. It is very good. There are two versions, one 6" = 150mm 750 Watts; one 5" = 125mm 500 Watts with different pattern sizes - you got to the smaller version at the end - it does perform different with a smaller pattern for finer work. Agreed about the DeWalt as a good enough cheaper sander and I've had pretty good fine work from mine over many years. Certainly better than my Makita equivalent.

[@muhammadkhair1611]

Finally I bought one a little while ago I got tired of waiting for you to review it and I’m gonna say so far the best wood working tool I’ve purchased

[@dagwood1327]

I have one. I have been pleased with the quality of Bosch tools. Corded and cordless.

[@terekschultz1230]

I have the Makita version. I think it was 380 when i bought it 2 or 3 years ago. It comes with a sustainer, which makes it even more like the Festool. I love it.

[@caj122892]

Got one a couple weeks ago. I’m a sander snob and I love it so far. A little clunky and loud but its an aggressive tool so a little expected.

[@stefanvalkov328]

I own one of this and its a beast i love it

[@Romzzy136]

This is the tool i own and its a beast especially when hooked up to a vacuum with 3m sanding paper ouffff love it

[@kennedycarey898]

I've owned this sander for about 2 years now - it's definitely a game changer compared to standard sanders. Highly recommend

[@SaveTheSunF1R3x]

Bought mine reconditioned for $180 yeaaarrs ago it's one of my absolute favs. if i recall correctly bosch was the one first to market on these. Another bosch sander worth checking out is the BOSCH GEX34-6N. It's very similar to the other festool finish sanders in terms of quality but with nearly zero vibration.

[@ebenisterie_charbonneau]

I’ve this sander for about 2years now and I love it little heavy when I sand vertically but for the price you can’t beat this beast and You can get a Bosch systainer was well many options on Amazon 👌🏻

[@mattmayes599]

I was comparing the Rotex to the Bosch before I purchased the Bosch. It's been a great sander for sure. One other difference between these two is the Rotex has tool-less sanding pad change. You can find both of the sanders reconditioned online cheaper than the new price and they come with a 1 year warranty.

[@ryanbarnes3881]

I have this sander and love it! I added a Festool Plug-it conversion kit ($30 at the time) to allow me to swap the Festool power cord with my finish sander. However, it appears they killed the conversion kits years ago.

[@ronswoodshack]

Great review, as far as a storage box? I mostly hope it doesn’t come with one because of my small shop just doesn’t allow for bulky cases. My tools are all hung on a French cleat system. Thanks Mighty Matt!’

[@MaxMlt06]

In Europe you have the option to get it in a L-Boxx (Bosch platform of cases) or not, depends on what suits your needs I don’t know if Bosch do that for my fellows Americans Personally I’m taking a lot of tools on the job site so L-Boxx it was Also a dusty box is always better than a dusty tool !

[@ericmann1781]

Same, mine is in the top of my tool box, a huge systainer case would just take up room I don't have. Yet here i am with the Makita track saw with their old storage box and those 4 terrible clips...

[@harolddecapodian2308]

lol you don’t need to use the box….

[@bryanlape3009]

One of your "Pros" for Festool is the systainer. I purchased the 6" 3M sander last year after one of your videos compairing it to the Festool. Totally happy with it. I too liked the idea of the systainer so I bought one for the 3M. Still $200.00 under the Festool and love it as an option. Thanks for all of the work you do on your channels.

[@timking1050]

I've always had this sander, and the two models below it they are all better that the festools

[@paulmannix1760]

After struggling with budget 5” sanders was looking to upgrade to a professional sander but Mirka & Festool were at the top end of my budget. After seeing some reviews of the Bosch GET 150 I bought one. Dare I say almost makes sanding pleasurable, but I’m coming off a low base. In Australia the Bosch comes in a plastic box like the Festool & is half the price at around AUD$700. Early days for me but cannot speak too highly of the Bosch product.

[@BrumberjackGuitars]

I bought one of these about 3 months ago. I absolutely love it, but I upgraded from the cheapest dewalt one, I can't compare it to the festool.

[@johnswofford599]

Thanks for the review!

[@autoc1001]

Hey Matt, I would just like to add that Bosch makes a sander that rivals the ETS 150/5, its the Bosch GEX34-6N that comes in at approx. $259 on HD if you were curious about doing a comparison. I actually have the Bosch sander and really like it. I would love the have the festool but this sander is quite nice for the price point in my opinion. The biggest difference between the two that is blatant is the size, festool has a much slimline design. Anyways thanks for your time love your channel. God Bless

[@Matt-ns2ty]

Weight ,balance and the instant stop of the motor is really good too compared to the Bosch Depend on your budget but they are both great at there price point

[@RDH0255]

Many of the Bosch tools are on par with Festool. Yep I said it 😁. I also have the Bosch GEX34-6N PROFESSIONAL and it’s more comparable to the Festool ETS EC 150. Great tools worth every penny. Great review as always Matt!

[@The-Handsome-Devil]

Looks like a great product and an even better price. Once again great review.

[@dietmarfinster3176]

I use the Bosch GET, Mirka Deros, Festool RTSC 400, Mafell UVA 115, Metabo DSE 280, Metabo SXE 400 As well as various others. I am thinking of the Deros against the new Festool ETSC 2 150 For the Bosch GET I use a thin soft pad that largely eliminates the "kicking"

[@brentboerner6907]

This sander works great. Have been using them for years

[@CharlieMikeWoodworks]

Very interesting. Very interesting. Thank you foe this review

[@horaz86nope24]

Hey great vid, realy open minded wich is rare when it comes to festool comparisons :D Btw the Bosch is also available in a box called L-Boxx

[@TWC6724]

Yes! This is a great sander as well as their orbital. Surprisingly good 👍

[@planeboardwoodworks5903]

I have the Bosch sander and it is an excellent sander!

[@brentboerner6907]

Top of line bosch RO sanders are very good too. Very minimal vibration when using and fraction of cost of festool.

[@RnRWoodworkings]

very cool! Bosch seems to be very deliberate lately with their woodworking market

[@731Woodworks]

They're definitely making some noise in the market!

[@MaxMlt06]

They actually released or announced quite a lot of woodworking tools ! A 18v router, a domino type machine, a lot of sanders corded or cordless! I went to Bosch because it was the go-to masonry brand (well deserved reputation), but as an hobby-level woodworker and a car guy, I’m happy to see the direction they’re taking !

[@stanleysmith8984]

Good job, there is another good sander on the market reasonably priced. I just purcgased two recently. The MAX is the one for us on a budget.

[@tccoggs]

Makita makes the BO6050J as well, same class feature set. It was my Festool alternative prior to this model Bosch.

[@stevearnold717]

I have a Porter Cable 505. Love it for heavy duty sanding

[@jimfeaster4837]

Oooh great review😊

[@betojaquez07]

Matt, I just bought this sander because I’ve been wanting to upgrade to Festool sander for many months but I couldn’t justify spending $700 for it. I used the 6” Bosh sander to sand Baltic Birch plywood and I’m not impressed with the dust collection. There is still a lot of dust left on the surface. I do have the sander hooked up to a Rigid Shop Vac. Do you think dust extractor will make a difference? I’m leaning towards HF Hercules Dust Extractor because of the price.

[@731Woodworks]

what sand paper are you using with it? The RIDGID should be giving you enough flow to collect the dust.

[@betojaquez07]

I’m using 3M cubitron sand net.

[@gdonham1203]

I used a Festool Rotex at a friends house and it is a beast in its aggressive mode. What is tried was a death grip on it in that mode and that was wrong. A light hold on the rotex was the best. I was impressed with the Festool Rotex. However recently I replaced the sanding pad on the friends Rotex and it was $85.00 on Amazon so not cheap. It was the festool brand but nothing from Festool is cheap. I have the Dewalt 5" and it is a great router but dust collection leaves some to be desired.

[@IamtheActionman]

Awesome demo as usual dude. 🤘

[@Alakarr]

The Bosch is on sale at Lowe's for $279 thru 11/15. Think I'm going to do some tool shopping after work.

[@Gozeto17]

Finally. I asked you to review this months ago

[@PorgyPuddinPie]

Hi, I actually own the 5" version and Id like to point out the reason I went 5" over 6" is it has a shorter throw. I find this to be a better option for those looking to use as a finish sander more than a rapid removal sander. Just wanted to mention since it wasnt covered.

[@skippylippy547]

Oh no! He said it .... Game Changer! Price and performance. Yes sir!

[@damnrite811]

They also sell a hard pad and soft pad replacement . I bought one and it works perfectly

[@gtwolfe100]

I've never used the Bosch (although I do have many other Bosch tools including the Glide miter saw which is a great saw), but run a fabrication shop where we use every model of Festool sander. Of all the minor differences between these two sanders, what to a professional shop would be the big issue is that 10 year parts guarantee. Our company runs a total of 12 compound miter saws for field work and I do the maintenance on the saws. Most are DeWalt saws and I have had to retire about 5 saws over the last year because of critical parts no longer being available. When you have a good tool that needs repair and cannot get it back in service because the manufacturer decided to change the model after a couple years, and the parts can't be found, it is extremely frustrating. So for my personal use, if I needed a sander like the Rotex, I'd probably get the Bosch instead to save the money. But if you plan to use the tool often and for many years, that ten year parts guarantee is a significant consideration.

[@Ceen328]

12:00 Bosch got their own sustainer, called L-Boxx, but you have to pay for the set with the L-Boxx. If you have very little space like I have, I love it that I can choose not to take the sustainer and reduce the cost that way. I use the Bosch GET75-6 (75-150 in germany, for 150mm) as the cheaper Rotex for lager pieces. I just got sanding papers up till 180 in 6'' and do the finish and all smaller pieces with my 5'' Festool (best sander IMO). All in all maybe one of the best combinations you can buy right now, if you don't want to go all in on Festool. EDIT: The big difference, aside from the diameter, is the power of the 5'' version from Bosch. 550 watts vs 750 watts, which is a huge difference in gear mode with a bit too much preassure.

[@jasonvandervalk3679]

This is interesting because I saw an older version of this sander maybe you have seen it. Very nice tool

[@christianhull7999]

Love mine!!

[@jerryjohnson4618]

Very cool Sander tool 👍👍

[@markkempton4579]

I was leaning towards the Dewalt, but this caught my eye when someone posted a deal alert about it recently. My issue is I have a bad left wrist after and know I'll need a third surgery in the near future, so I think a one-handed sander will be necessary in the near term.

[@TK-mj9rd]

This sander has been around for years. I love your channel but this almost seems like a paid ad vs a new find.

[@TimberworksTables]

I only learned about this sander a few months ago. For some of us, it is new.

[@buckeyebassinwithericp626]

This was completely new to me. I’m glad he done the review and I could care less if he’s getting paid for it because this is his business that pays his bills.

[@JamesSmullins]

He didn't say it was a new sander, he said it was new to him as it probably is for most of his viewers. It's also at a price point more people will consider reasonable and buy this one when they wouldn't buy the festool.

[@Danirio96]

You gotta make content even if it's bs

[@STXBARNES-fi7ho]

Yea, but not all of us knew about it. Relax and get off of your high horse. You’ll enjoy it.

[@calebjhaynieful]

I have had 2 of these. The first one lasted 4 years and it was 4 years of heavy and abusive use before it died. I replaced it with the same model and they are great! I need a dust extractor but recommend this sander. I am surprised you didn’t know about this earlier. I would love to see you compare the non-turbo sander to festool…hint …hint…cough … cough

[@CraigularjJoeWoodworks]

It’s so much cheaper than the festool, and in my shop the professional Bosch sanders work extremely well. At the moment every piece of wood gets sanded with a Bosch gex-34 . Its festool quality at half the price

[@mak4374]

I don't know about the Festool but I have had the Bosch and it's a beast, or as gentle as you need it. It turbo mode, no kidding, hold on. But in lower revolutions, almost imperceptible vibration. I still think the step down Bosch is the best sander ever, with NO vibrations, and probably a better all-around, but this one is incredible, especially if you have larger projects. Usually I use this one for the rougher papers, and then switch to thinner using either a big box sander, or the Bosch 18V, which is also exceptional in every way.

[@adama1294]

I have an earlier model of this and it is fantastic.

[@ronshimkojr9190]

You should try out the new Makita XGT 40v sander (GOB01CZ ). It looks good.

[@bobbray9666]

You just found the Bosch GET75-6N sander? It's been on the market at least for 5 years. I bought one 3 years ago and love it. I mostly use it for quick stripping of wood finishes but it works great for leveling out glue ups too big for my planer. You'll want the hard pad to reduce dips you can create easily in hardwood because it is very aggressive. Another tool as good or better than Festool at half the price. Bosch's 12" miter saw is another tool as good or better than Festool's miter saw that's a lot cheaper to buy. Now Bosch should make a Mirka type orbital sander for $300.

[@martingilbert8075]

Makita has one also

[@robertrada4783]

Just like their previous Rolex copy from ages ago, the Bosch dual action sander uses plastic gears. As do the old and new Makita versions. Hence why we still buy the 6” Festool and also hence why they charge what they want.

[@jgemeinhardt3955]

Ok rumor has it (over seas) that the Festool was actually designed off Bosch's original platform for this sander. I have owned one of these for about 8 years and totally abused it and I can't kill it!! Just replace the hook & loop pad , which Bosch has recently upgraded so I doubt they'll stop making it, and keep going. As you said just make sure you've done your arm and shoulder exercises because in turbo mode it demands you keep up with it especially with rough grit sandpaper. Amazingly, as you mentioned, in the non-tubo mode it is a very good finishing sander with dust collection on par with the Festool, it's just kind of large but I have other Bosch finishing sanders which are great, so no worries.

[@merikatools568]

My wife goes into Turbo Mode when I come home smelling like beer and fun

[@jmelchiori85]

Makita also has a gear driven 6" sander at a similar price point that might be worth looking at.

[@GianniStorti]

It's a monster, I use it with *cubitron II discs and it eats trhough wood. It leaves a really good finish too. Love it, really recommend it. If you want to bring something really new, take a look at the new Mirka Deros RS 600. It's a direct drive (like the bosch in turbo mode) brushless sander. It should be the 1st one (direct drive) with a brushless motor. This and the new Dexos 1217 - brushless vacuum. *3m Cubitron 2 papers shouldn't be used with a rotary sander. Don't know why.. it's just stated on the box they come in. I use them anyway but be sure to use a protector pad

[@loubonaparte5063]

i grabbed 2 of these JUST prior to pandemic from Acme. Refurbed but that only tells me they fixed whatever MIGHT have gone wrong. Love them both. I paid $189. Wish I bought 4.

[@markgrochowski7934]

Could you do a review of reusable hearing protection? Thank you.

[@abbywoo5716]

Bro, you are correct. We have been using these for almost 10 years for my money those things smoke Festool… they have a better grinding application than festool does… we stopped using Festool for salad surface applications. Once this sander came out there is literally no comparison.

[@joshmagrum3552]

I have that sander and it’s a freaking beast! I’m sure the Festool is better, but I doubt twice as good.

[@boazblubstein5831]

I don’t know about the bosch, but the festool can do a polish

[@marconiandcheese7258]

So Bosch is big on parts availibility too and able to repair it yourself for a reasonable price too.

[@scurtis34471]

You should do a review on the MaxXT sander. I have one, and it is ridiculous for what it costs. I don't think there is another sander under $300 that even comes close and I feel no need to upgrade.

[@yossiyaari3760]

In Europe we know about Bosch/Makita products. I had my eye on the similar mode years ago.

[@Technomandfw]

I love my Bosch 6in dual mode Sander. And I got it for $209 on sale on Amazon. You couldn't swap me any of the competitors for it.

[@chrisarab123]

Good sander but I’ve had 2 of them in a commercial shop and have repaired both of them twice. It’s a “get what you pay for” situation. Never had any issues with our festool sander and I could have bought a 2nd one of those for the amount I spent buying/repairing the others. Not a bad tool, just don’t expect it to be festool quality at that price.

[@jameymikels1886]

I only use Bosch sanders.... have 3 of them

[@OWolf-pk1xq]

Great video! Please compare them to the new geardriven Mirka Deros RS 600

[@jamesmarotta816]

I have the Bosch. I bought it by mistake. It was a very happy mistake.😅

[@ChrisMcGinnis-kj3zr]

Had mine for 6 months.... shocked how cheap it was on Amazon. Amazon always has Black Friday Bosch deals so I'd hold off.

[@edhernandez5326]

I have this BOSCH BOSCH GET75-6N, it is as good as the Festool 6-inch RO 150 Rotex Sander, the other BOSCH sander that is very good is the BOSCH GEX34-6N 6 In, it compares very well to the Festool ETS EC 150/5, it is better than the Festool IMO and at around $260 it is less than half the price of the Festool ETS EC 150/5

[@9bnmadden]

Another great sander in this category is the Makita BO6050J. I have had it for 4 years and it has been a workhorse for me. Competatively priced like the Bosch, and it comes with a systainer too. It would be fun for you to look at this sander too!

[@rulowth4815]

Yess i would love it too

[@731Woodworks]

Thanks for the recommendation! I'll have to check it out.

[@josephstoner5607]
