Ok so I am looking to get a random orbital sander and have pretty much decided to go with the Bosch ROS20VS. I noticed Bosch also has another kit ROS20VSK but it looks to be the same sander but that it comes with a hard case instead of a bag. Is this the only difference? I have also looked at the Ridgid, DeWalt and Porter Cable. Any thoughts?
can’t really comment on other sanders however I have the Milwaukee ROS and have been happy with it….
I have the bosch and it is fantastc. I used it to sand my 20’x25′ deck w 2 different grits. never skipped a beat. I believe that is the only difference
3/32 orbit is quite small (they range 5/64 to 1/4 generally) so its not going to sand quickly but will leave a very fine finish. That could be a pro or con depending on your needs.
