Bosch ROS20VSK Consumer Report

Bosch ROS20VSK Review by limi

I never used any random orbit sander before. This is my first one. The reason I buy this is because the dust collection seems good. And yes, it's really good.

However, I don't like the start-up and stop - not smooth. It's easy for stop because I just need to take up the sander. But for start, I need to be more careful and push the sander hard to avoid vibrating.

I don't know if this sander has "soft-start" technology. But it's really not good at start-up.

I am little disappointed.

Bosch ROS20VSK Review by William Moyer (Dunlap, IL United States)

This sander does a decent job. I should have gotten a cordless model because it turns out I had another small sander that uses square pieces of sand paper (Porter Cable model). Also, the sandpaper does not remove a lot of material as previous models do but its because the paper I am using is not very aggressive. The filter works well, captures a lot of the dust. Overall OK.

Bosch ROS20VSK Review by jean

This is without a dought the best R.O. Sander for the dollar.....has very good dust pick-up and fantastic sanding function, especially with variable speed. . . .I like this better than my Rockwell. You need not look any further as this is the best bang for your buck. . .

Bosch ROS20VSK:: Description

The Bosch ROS20VS is designed to give even the most exacting finish carpenters, cabinet makers, woodworkers and others exactly what they want, beginning with great performance and results. The optimized combination of pad orbit and rotation delivers fast removal and a well-blended, ultra-smooth finish. Bosch's integral pad dampening system, a pad braking system, is designed to eliminate the most common complaint of random orbit sander users; swirl marks on the workpiece. Finish quality is further enhanced with the use of a soft microcellular backing pad. The pliable pad ensures a smooth, fine finish on flat or contoured surfaces.
