Makita GA7021 7" Angle Grinder, with AC/DC Switch

This grinder is awesome it's smooth start takes the strain of your wrist, lot's of power I use it for dressing/ finishing cement just works good

As far as first impressions, this grinder blew my expectations out of the water. I got the Makita 4 1/2" 10 amp angle grinder (fantastic machine) for Christmas and I've been using it for 5 months now, and it chews through steel like some 7" harbor freight grinders at work, but it feels lighter. That grinder set the bar pretty darn high. So naturally, I went for another beefy Makita when I wanted a 7", and I got this one. (with money from graduation presents, do you sense a trend?) Oh my goodness, I'm so glad I bought this. This thing is a friggin beast. However I'm a small guy (140lb) and I simply cannot effectively grind for long on something if it's not flat, I just can't control it comfortably. But that's why I have my 4 1/2" grinder. But when I have A LOT of flat grinding to do, there is not a single tool that can beat this behemoth. The only thing that can stop this grinder is... well, nothing. Also, this does have a switch locking mechanism. If you pull the safety switch, (in front of the trigger) and pull the trigger to start it, then release the trigger but hold the switch, it'll lock it on so you don't have to hold the trigger down, and to release, you just pull the trigger again. This is awesome, but you do have to be careful, because if it's locked on and you plug it in, it'll hop and around like a rabbit with a broken leg. And it'll scare the crap out of your boss. Ask me how I know. In conclusion, this is a beast of a tool and the weight resembles it. You barely have to put any pressure on it when grinding flat. It lends itself to very fast material removal in a flat position. However, the weight of it hinders any other position, and that is definitely something to consider, especially if you're not a 250 lb barbarian. But I will say it tag-teams well with the 10 amp 4 1/2" Makita. In the end it's well worth the money.

Rugged and beautiful all at the same time. Used it to take down a cinder brick wall filled with concrete and rebar. Performed excellently.

Great product

The best I've found. I always come to Amazon to look for them since they are very durable and very powerful for professional work. I recommend them.
