not mine, not (really) endorsing...
but I have this sander (badged differently, but the same sander) - and have re-posted items like this before. This belt/disk sander is great medium sized tool that is very capable.
I don't know who wrote the copy in the CL post, but if it is the poster, they need to work in sales and marketing:
"...it takes work pieces from rough to glossy smooth quickly, while the open design expels dust at every turn. ..."
Well I can agree with that - it spreads saw dust with abandon ('at every turn')!
