Man I'm a few months away from needing one... I've been keeping an eye on these and they never seem to go on sale. Very temping.

I wish Lowe's would have price matched so there was the option for an additional military discount.

Home Depot has a military discount. I believe it's 10%.

If the price is too low Home Depot will not honor the mil discount. I've had Lowes only give a 5% a few times.

I didn't know something like this existed so it wasn't on the list of things to buy 🤷 ♂️....typed it into Lowes and it was on clearance in my store for $79. Mil discount brought it to $72. Added to cart and the check out price went back to $99?? Screen shot my phone and ordered anyways so I'll make my case at the store, I suppose.

Wouldn't a belt sander be a better for general sanding ? whats the advantage of a handheld drum?

None of the stores near me carry this.

Oh no... You get to buy the specialty accessories for this item for three times what they are worth, so why use a 3 x 21 or 4 x 24 sander where you can buy the belts at Walmart?

Good point. I was on the fence but man the different drums and sanding rolls are just to expensive. The more research i do this seems like a specialty tool for people that do a lot of reclaiming of old painted wood. Not really for the weekend hobbyist.
