Amazon.com Review
JET's stated goal for this tool was to design the best spindle sander on the market, and point by point the company has succeeded through better innovation rather than cost cutting. First, this benchtop model is double the weight of others on the market and has a 1/2-horsepower motor versus the 1/4-horsepower motors found elsewhere. This means larger pieces won't bog down and the machine will run smoother. Two excellent design improvements are the relocated and sealed on/off switch (to prevent dust infiltration) and shelves where you can insert and store your five complete spindles. All JET motors are totally enclosed and fan-cooled to prevent overheating and dust infiltration. This translates to longer motor life and less risk of a fire hazard than open motor housing--very important in such a dusty operation. This sander also has a sealed grease box around the oscillation mechanism for dust protection and longer life. The precision-ground table tilts to 45 degrees and accepts a modified insert for angles. Other inserts have air holes to improve dust collection through the 2-inch dust port. While JET shop tools are often sold as price leaders, this one leads with quality instead, and while the price may be higher than other spindle sanders, you get more tool. Sometimes bells and whistles really are worth the money. --Nancy Gleason
