My boyfriend wants a handheld belt sander for his birthday and I don’t have the first clue what brand, make/model is the best. Any suggestions?

    Dewalt, Milwaukee and Ryobi are three brands that pros prefer in power tools of all kinds. Go to a place like Home Depot or Lowe’s for best prices.

    I’d go with a Bosch if you can afford it. Porter Cable makes nice ones that are more affordable. Makita’s are great too. Try to stay away from the smaller, belt driven models as the belts break often. Learned this the hard way. DeWalt’s can be Black and Decker models with yellow paint. Stay away from those and Riyobi(crap!)

    For 15 years dewalt are all good brands make one with at least 3×21.
    The corvette but not all brands have had problem you even think of it this way chevrolet makes the corvette but would recommend.
