I have used the Ridgid one for several years and found it to be quite good. I generally just use the belt using the ends for contours. If you use a dust collector rather than a vacuum it seams to work much better, because of the higher CFM. My only complaint is the sanding drums are a little hard to find, whereas the belts are the same as my belt sander.

Thank you for doing all the research/leg work, buying different machines, and providing this analysis...super valuable. I’m looking now at the Wen. I tried the table top sander from Wen and the belt kept sliding all over so I took a break from them. But if it saves me $200 then I think I’ll bite again.

When Ridgid first brought their sander out they had problems with motor failures. I have had mine for over three years now and it still runs strong. I use it as well as my combo bench sander. I also mounted it on a (blasphemy) Harbor Freight stand! I like the larger table it has compared to the other units.

Red: I bought the Wen 3x21, portable belt sander. Generally, it seems to work OK on the first couple of sanding jobs. However, you can see plastic gears inside and the plastic housing requires screws to hold the two sides together, one of which goes right through the middle of the dust port, rendering it a useless clogging point. Are you sure the hardware inside is the same on all these? WEN makes attractive and affordable products, but surely the company has to make compromises somewhere to meet lower price points.

Just bought the Ridgid, it’s a very versatile sander! Only issue I have with it so far is make sure the belt attachment is secure and tight because the guide wear plate on the end is just barely long enough and if it isn’t 100% seated and tight it will slightly pop out of place. Why they couldn’t have made it 1/4” longer so this isn’t an issue, and it should be made of brass as I can see it will wear out quickly.

I’ve had my Ridgid for at least 10 years now, and it’s been fantastic. I’ve used the piss out of this thing and it still works great. You definitely NEED dust collection tho as these things make prodigious amounts of dust. I love the size of the table. If you work on large workpieces a lot, you’ll really be glad for the additional real estate. No regrets here! It’s been worth every penny to me...

I don’t have all these units anymore, so I can’t test and compare directly, but here’s what I can say. I was able to take the stuff from the win and put it on the rigid and I have been able to take the stuff from the mower and put it on the win so my guess is it the Bauer would fit the rigid. However, they have done some updates to the rigid in recent years, so I’m not 100% sure.

The Ridgid EB4424 has a 5 amp motor (actually 4.6 amps) w/60 OPM and up to 1725 RPM w/Spindles and a bigger table @ 18 7/8"x16 1/4" for $249 @ HD the belt runs CW. The Wen 6524 had a 3.5 amp motor w/58 OPM and up to 2000 RPM w/spindles and 1575 FPM w/belt, table size is 16"x8" for $179.61 @ HD the belt runs CCW. Things to keep in mind both of these sanders are made overseas and both are geared towards the home DIY market, they are not intended for production or heavy shop use. Guess what it boils down to is 1.1 amps and a little bigger table worth the extra $69.39 bucks, at first I was going for the Ridgid but after closer inspection and reading reviews that extra $70 is better spent on other tools or supplies.

Wen probably included the nut and big washer because of problems with rigid. My rigid drums expanded fine when it was new. 10 years late, no matter what I did, sleeve would slip. I thought I lost a part, or maybe my mind. I saw a video John heisz posted. He had same problem. He solved it by making plywood washers to go on top of drums. Solved my problem.

Yeah re-branding is a thing...In fact most companies slap their name on tools they didn't make to a large extent, and really if you look into it, it is a common theme across all consumer products in general. Doesn't mean it's a bad thing but it's good to be aware of if you trying to get a good price on whatever.

After watching this video I decided to get the Ridgid. Unfortunately Home Depot is sold out. Talked to the main customer service center....nobody has a clue when or if they will be sold again. 2 of the 3 people I talked to suggested that they stopped carrying the sander. That's hard to believe but who knows? The local HF has one in stock. Gonna buy it before they run out. The Ridgid is a better deal at $269 but if they're out they're out. Perhaps someone else can follow up with Home Depot.

The belt sander with radial sander isn't an oscillating sander. Surely that's going to account for some of the price difference. A big plus is that these oscillating sanders have a table perpendicular to the belt. Belt sanders don't have that. Instead, you get a smaller sanding surface (3" ...1/2 of the disc) and a smaller table perpendicular to the disc. That's why I'm selling my belt+disc sander and getting an oscillating sander.

Bought the Wen due to cost and the belt/spindle sander combo feature - never has failed me in 2yrs - I consider the Wen to be a notch above HF - I also have the same disk/belt sander you have from HF - use it only for sharpening and fast stock removal on wood - the HF was and is not square to anything - the disk sander wheel is not flat - I have also fiddled with it for better dust collection. So Wen worked out of the box with no real set up required - HF requires messing around to get set up correctly and even then …… I like the Wen so much I bought the 13inch 3 blade lunchbox planer - I have not used it much but the 3-4 times I have I have like the results

Neither google nor the search box on your site turned up anything related to sanders from your blog. Your content is good, but it would be great if you spent more time polishing up the parts that matter, rather than editing in your mascot as a talking head.

The sander similar to the Wen is popular in Europe sold under various labels. I like that the screw know is not a left hand thread like the Ridgid. I have the Ridgid and while I do like it, I feel they could have done a much better job with the design. First, it is impossible to align the table to be level on the left and right side at the same time because of the way the locking mechanism works. The first one I had also had a warped table so it was *way* off from being level. Second, the detents for setting the angle on the table are not even close to being accurate - even after adjustment. Third, the motor needs more power. Forth, the dust collector is pretty much useless. There is a guy on KZbin that designed a homemade attachment that does help greatly though. And lastly I can't find sanding sleeves that fit the drums without slipping, The Ridgid brand, which do work, aren't sold at Home Depot anymore, so I bought some Diablos and shimmed them with printer paper. I bought a 2" drum for mine, (the largest supplied is a 1.5"), and I made a new throat plate for it. It's a nice addition - there is a big difference between the 1.5" and 2" drum.

The range in price from $210-$250 with the Ridgid being the most expensive and having a bigger motor 4.5 amps and longer warranty 3 years, while the other 2 are 3.5 amps and 2 year warranty.

They are all made in the same factory in China. The way I'd suggest making your decision is on features. The ridgid has a bigger table and miter slot. The Grizzly is smaller and could would better in a shop that has space constraints. Ridgid will back up their warranty IF you do everthing they require you to and don't lose your paperwork.

I am assuming the same. Do you know that for sure? I'm about ready to buy one of these WEN's, but am hesitant and scared in case it breaks.

I have a WEN thickness planer and drill press. Both have performed well and their product support was great. That is why I decided to buy this. It is coming in about a week. However, I paid $209 now. If you think that is just normal inflation, think again. It is Trump's tariffs. Everything from China has gone up, and that is a lot of everyone buys. No, China is not paying the tariffs. The guys who bring the stuff here pay it and pass it on to you. That said, it is still a good deal, but Trump is getting your beer, money not the president of China. Don't believe me, look up how tariffs work.

Maybe stop supporting Chinese products, buy and support American made products. Also it was a good thing trump did that, we need to stop making things in China. Bring our jobs back, don't send them overseas just to make a quick buck. China sucks anyways.

And now it’s $194 and the tariffs you complain about are still in effect. Lol! No, Trump doesn’t receive tariff $$$. Get a grip. No one here cares about your politics.

@@hammondge Tariffs are paid by the importer to the US Treasury. They are not paid by China. However, Trump said the tariffs were paid by China and the money was flowing back into the US. NO. That was a lie. By the way., my comment was 2 years old. Don't you have a time limit on how old the posts are that you respond to?

1st the rigid was great, but they are made by tti, same company that makes ryobi and they have cheaped out on parts, just bought one and motor started smoking right out of the box. Just because things look alike doesn't mean they are the same, even coming out of the same factory doesn't mean its made with the same parts....I actually thought you were going to do a real review of these sanders not just give your opinion on tools you haven't used

@denoftools 6 жыл бұрын
Here is a tip, watch the whole video before you go and make a claim like "tools you haven't used". Also, point in fact, TTI does NOT make this sander. They outsource it to Kingstar. Not only do I know the tools but I also spoke with the factory that makes these. And lastly, the fact that you had one tool go to smoke out of the box is in no way an indicator or the quality of a manufacture. No single individual has the capability of examining enough examples of a product on their own to make a statement like that. Its a mathematical fact based on data sets and the sheer fact that you don't "get that" is probably the largest indicator here.

Red Beard and The Den of Tools, well there are plenty of people with the same complaint about the rigid motor failing in an extremely short period of time, you talk about the grizzly that you don't actually have to compare to the others.... have you used the grizzly???? And unless you called Taiwan you didn't speak to anyone producing the ridgid.... look it up it's manufactured by tti
