Three years ago I bought a Bauer 7 inch polisher/sander at Harbor Freight. I thought "I know it's not top notch, I'll use it till it dies and then get a good one."
It worked great but finally died.
So, time for the "Good One."
Ordered a DeWalt DWP849X. It was $207 on Amazon.
It arrived today and looks awesome.
But on close inspection it looks identical to the Bauer. In fact I'm sure I could swap parts back and forth. Only difference is yellow vs. red.
But hey, its a DeWalt. Must be 4X better and worth 4X the price. I'm sure of it. No question. Right?
