From Amazon:
- INCLUDES: 4 1/2" Angle grinder, five grinding wheels and a carrying case
- MOTOR: 6.2 amp motor [irrelevant marketing wank removed]
- SIDE HANDLE: removable, forward-canted side handle for improved control and comfort for right and left-handed users
- LIGHTWEIGHT: Only 4.0 lbs for greater control and maneuverability, especially in overhead applications
- LOW_PROFILE: Get into the tightest areas
- GRIP: Smaller design makes for a more comfortable hold and reduced fatigue
Maybe be able to price match at Lowes b/c sold by and shipped by Amazon.com (
aka not a sketchy vendor) YMMV. If you go the Lowes route, be prepared to show the customer service person the Lowes.com price match policy regarding Amazon (pull it up on your phone
before you get in CS line).
This is not as low as the Feb / June sales, but if you need one now it's 20% off the everyday price of $49.
I bought one b/c my $20 HF model is starting to go out from grinding too much thinset. It's hard life is why I'm
not replacing it with a Dewalt or Makita. I hope this helps someone.

It says tool only. Are you certain this is the kit?
It works fine for cutting concrete block and roof tiles. Also used it for cutting steel hurricane panels. besides grinder isn't great for that task but it got the job done nonetheless.
The only time I've wanted more power has been using a cup grinder. It's okay for thinset and stucco but it could have used more power for concrete.
All that being said it's held up great. Under heavy load in Florida summer heat it can get so hot you can't hold it. But it's never smelled burnt. it works fine the bearings seem fine the cord and cord relief are all holding up. The original brushes are still good. It's a great value in my opinion.

And like a previous poster said, this amp rating is probably plenty for almost all users (other than machine shop people that are grinding all day). I used mine little HF one to grind masonry and it worked like a champ for a couple of hours.
Here's the price history on CamelCamelCamel. Change the timeframe to the last year and note that this is the first more-than-a-few hours sale in a while. Keep watching the product because it will occasionally go lower after the first lowering--but at $30 they sell out quickly. I bought one Wednesday and it's a decent price. If it goes lower, I'll ask Amz to price match themselves. If it doesn't, that's ok, it's a decent product that comes in a proper hard shell instead of in a purse like so many others (better for bouncing around in a work truck).

This is a KIT, not a bare tool. I confirmed that the photos are not visible on the mobile version of the website. Sorry. I have no control over that.
