SKIL 6 Amp 4-1/2-Inch Corded Angle Grinder - 9295-01

Great tool works amazing. Has a lot of power too easy to operate always wear your safety glasses and worked responsibly obviously for adult use works great though have used it for many projects and tough enough to cut through or grind on anything I put it to highly recommend.

As expected. For a home DIYer it’s well worth the money. I have had one, pretty much identical, for about 25 years. It is still going strong. Have replaced the cord once. I found myself in need of another side grinder I could dedicate to just cutting wheels. Sometimes you just need a bigger cutting wheel. Anyway received the new unit, fitted it with a cutting wheel, placed it in my DIY cutting tool and cut 25 conduit pipe ends from 1 1/2” conduit. It performed great. Now if you are a contractor you may need a little more umph. But for the home owner and DIYer, why pay more. Just make sure you have ear and eye protection.

Works great - good price I now know why this angle grinder is so popular. This angle grinder works excellently. With a cutting disc it cut right thru thin gauge metal with ease. It feels solid as well, and tbh it is fairly light weight and easy to grip. Ive read some say the power button is a bit cumbersome but almost right away I got used to it and its benefit is that it is very easy to power off. So basically what I like about this SKIL angle grinder -relatively light weight -relatively easy to handle / grip -handle can be screwed (threaded) on either side and the top (3 positions to attach the handle) -the wrench for changing discs is conveniently incorporated into the handle -smooth engine / smooth sounding and "feeling" when in operation -tried and true many many people use this grinder and most give it a high rating -good price -overall works great -if it should matter it looks cool (opinion) I highly recommend this angle grinder. It is relatively low priced, it works well and it is very ergonomic with its handle being able to attach three different areas (right, left, top), girth not too wide to comfortably grip and (again) it is relatively light weight. Comfortable to use. Id also recommend some over the ear hearing protection / attenuation it is pretty loud over the ear type will make taking on and off very easy (Walkers NR34 right here on Amazon work well fyi). Good stuff right here from SKIL. Highly recommended.

Great price for what you get. Good power. Spanner wrench cleverly fits inside the handle. Reasonably good construction and material. It's not quite the same solid feel and the motor doesn't take the same abuse as Milwaukee or Dewalt, but it's close. It's way better than a Harbor Freight grinder. I buy these for my heavy equipment repair business. We keep 3 or 4 grinders at the shop and in service trucks. I stopped buying Milwaukee and Dewalt because they'd disappear or get abused beyond repair (cords constantly cut, cords pulled out on either end, guards, handles and spanner wrenches missing, arbor nuts missing, casings cracked). I don't usually buy power tools from Harbor Freight, but tried one. It didn't make it past 1 use. Then I tried these Skil grinders. The first one lasted about a year before someone over-worked it. He should have been using a 6" grinder, but used this poor guy instead. In all, I've bought 4 of these. Only 1 has died. And somehow, we still have all the spanner wrenches, probably because the guys don't realize they're stored inside the handle.

Good quality tool at a low price. Like it!

I really do like this grinder skil is a great brand probably not if better then black and decker maybe better but the value was pretty good cheap for my taste and more trust worthy then harbor freight you know when you buy a skil product it’s gonna be good but the output is very good cut through 1/2 rods in a non working scraped woodchipper gas powered and it started to bog down but was pretty heavy duty and the wheel was getting short literally grinding down and cut through some piece of thick steel and is powerful my my this thing powerful I’m glad I got this then harbor freight probably similar but better in my case and I prefer cored overt Cordless because UNLIMITED power and you don’t have to buy an battery or worry about it tearing up on you even if it’s name brand overall I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TO the hobbyists and even some mechanics just starting out and some jerry rigging stuff backyard silly projects godbless every one John 3:16 please read!.

Edit 10/7/2024 - I have used this grinder for a couple of years now and it has done everything I have asked to to - grinding concrete, sharpening mower blades, cutting square tubing, cutting deck screws, and more. It works great for me. The only downside is the on/off switch. It doesn't always stay locked in the "ON" position and sometimes won't lock.It might be just me not hiding it right. For what I do, it hasn't been a real problem. If this might be a problem for you, beware. I can't believe I waited this long to buy an angle grinder. I have been able to do without it, but this will make a lot of jobs easier. The main purpose for me buying this grinder was to grind some concrete on my screen porch. I purchased this grinder along with the HERZO Dust Shroud and the KSEIBI 644030 4-1/2-Inch Double Row Diamond Cup Grinding Wheel. They did the job great. The weak spot was the shop vac filling up with dust and the filter clogging. The Skil held up fine. It did get a little warm after 10 minutes or so of steady grinding. It cooled off as I emptied the concrete dust. If you need a grinder for jobs around the house, I wouldn't hesitate on this one.

Nice

I needed a relatively inexpensive grinder for a small chop saw stand. This Skil grinder is well priced and works well. I cannot speak to the durability, and I'm not sure it'd hold up to continuous heavy use, however, for a handyman application it is a great buy. Does not come with a case which wasn't an issue for me. One thing to note, which had me scratching my head, is where the chuck wrench is located! I assumed mine came without one, until I finally noticed it's hidden/stored in the handle attachment. Overall, a solid little unit which is performing well so far.

Excelente máquina, muy potente y ligera

Exactly what I needed at a price point I can live with. I need an angle grinder about once or twice a year, so want not willing to spend a lot of money on a once in while tool.

Buena relación Precio-Calidad, herramienta resistente. Mi uso es para desvastar perfiles de aluminio con el disco correspondiente de desvaste obtienes excelentes resultados.

Una excelente pulidora y a un excelente precio.
