Complete trash, first one with in 2 seconds started smoking. Sent it back, two days later got a replacement. One that looks like it was trashed, picked up and put in the box. Needless to say, it to started to smoke and burn up. Figured it's cheap may be great, since it uses dewalt batteries which i have already. I was dead wrong lol, should of kept scrolling but thanks to amazon. I got a full refund and $25.00 gift card for time wasted thanks amazon. Bottom line is, save yourself the aggravation don't buy this. 10 out of 10 wouldn't recommend

This small polisher (6") does a decent job, and has more than enough power for 6" work. It won't replace the 9" plug in for speed of detailing, but for smaller area work this is perfect and fits in areas the 9" doesn't easily handle.It comes with a selection of pads that work ok, but if you do a lot of detailing you'll already have your preferred pads, which should fit this just fine.

I ordered this product to accomplish several tasks with my vehicles, most notably to polish my faded headlamp assemblies and to polish the painted surfaces. I chose this product because it uses the DeWalt 20V MAX battery system to power the unit (no batteries are included with the product). This is important because I chose the DeWalt battery platform for my workshop and yard tools and have a few DeWalt batteries to use with this tool.I had a problem with this tool that was observed when it was first taken from the box and tested. I contacted the Seller through the Amazon Customer Service Office. After several communications trying to address the problem, the Seller decided to resolve the problem by sending a new tool to me through Amazon. The new tool works perfectly, and it is very much appreciated that the Seller worked diligently to resolve the problem with the product. Five Stars for their efforts on this issue alone!The tool has a six-inch hook & loop (e.g., Velcro) platen for the attachment of the accessory polishing or sanding implements. The platen moves in an orbital motion to prevent overheating the surface being worked, polishing swirls, or, in the event of sanding, gouges in the surface being sanded. The speed of the platen and thus the orbital motion speed, is adjusted through a rotary dial built into the tool's grip handle. The motor speed is adjustable from a fairly slow rotational rate to a very fast rate for putting the final polish on a surface. The tool comes with a round single-side grip may be attached to either side of the tool with the supplied bolt. It also comes with a loop handle which may be attached with the two supplied bolts and the needed Allen wrench to tighten the bolts. Alternatively, the front of the tool may simply be grasped on the elastomer-coated grip built into the tool. The battery used to supply power is attached onto the distal end of the grip handle and latched into place. The user then holds the grip so that the index finger may operate the power switch trigger built into the grip. Also included in the grip is a trigger lock which can be used to lock the trigger in the "on" position. The trigger lock is disengaged simply by pulling the trigger a second time to release the trigger. The rotary speed control is placed where the grip and the main body of the tool interface and is rotated left or right to increase or decrease the motor speed of the tool.The product was supplied with six pieces of 2000 grit abrasive paper to attach to the platen with the hook & loop material on the back of the pads. This fine abrasive paper is most often used in the preparation of plastic headlamp assemblies for polishing. It was also supplied with five waffle-surface foam pads with the hook & loop material on the back of the pads, a single flat yellow foam pad with a hook & loop backing for use with liquid polishing products, and a white wool polishing bonnet with a hook & loop backing for final polishing steps.I have only used the tool to gently polish the rear tail-light surfaces using the white wool polishing bonnet and a little "Flitz Polish," but it performed the task well and the plastic surfaces now look factory new. I will be moving on to the larger surfaces in the very near future. I anticipate that I will have no issues using this tool to accomplish those tasks. The tool works well.

The first one of these I got only lasted one trigger pull for two seconds and it wouldn't operate anymore. All I got was a click like the motor stalled and went into some type of protection mode, even with multiple batteries tried.The second one I got has been working very well, It's comfortable to use, and has more than enough power for my DIY detailing needs. The brushless motor is much quieter than my brushed motor DA polisher than I have used in the past. I had no issues with multiple batteries tried, and while running at low speed (just applying and removing some wax) it lasted way longer than expected. A three amp-hour battery is more than enough for this.

The first one I received was DOA, but exchange was easy and the new one works really well.I have used this (with the included orange foam pad) to clean up a bad paint job. Sprayed base & clearcoat, waited several days, sanded to 3000, and then used this with some all-in-one compound. Makes my terrible paint job look like I actually knew what I was doing.Also used the same setup to remove some really old paint overspray from a different panel. Worked beautifully.The only real issue I have with this kit, is that there is nothing to indicate the color coding of the pads. They don't seem to match up to other sets I've seen; so the only way to tell is by feel. The orange foam pad is the firmest one, and the yellow is the softest; but I can't tell for sure what the others are.

The media could not be loaded.

Extremely well made and powerful, uses dewalt 20v battery (you must have a dewalt 20v battery and charger, this does polisher does not include those). A really good buy if you already have the dewalt battery and charger.

The first one I got was smoking out of the box. It never actually worked. I’m getting a replacement. I will update the review if there is any improvement.The second one I got worked as expected. No issues. It is actually brushless.
