Thought I would give this 1/3rd sheet sander a try. This 3 amp sander is light but solid and powerful. Note, it does not fit central vac hoses. Save me money, do the job well and look good. Best of all, I am glad I came across the WEN line.

It's true that the Makita BO3710 was the 1/3 Sheet Finishing Sanders that we graded at the top. Having said that, there were a handful of other really premium quality 1/3 Sheet Finishing Sanders we wanted to showcase here that just barely missed first place.

Next on our list is made by WEN known to be a very trusted tool manufacturer. WEN's Finishing Sanders are great as well. I was ready to have a go at the model 6313 and I was not let down!

The WEN 6313 Finishing Sander, at $23.50 is a particularly excellent Finishing Sander for the price. The WEN 6313 is definitely a sound alternative. Of you are unsure about our number one selection, I'd suggest you choose this Finishing Sander.

Besides the selections we reviewed already, I would take a look at the BLACK+DECKER 7448 A and the B006 by Chicago Pneumatic. Both tool brands are popular for their top quality Finishing Sanders. Both tools are highly rated also. The BLACK+DECKER boasts a rating of 3.6/5 when compared to 5.0/5 star rating received by the Chicago Pneumatic B006.

The 7448 A by BLACK+DECKER has several features you might not find on other similar Finishing Sanders. For example Large sander ideal for sanding large areas. The Chicago Pneumatic B006 by comparison, is very competitive offering Counterbalanced fan reduces vibration and user fatigue plus Forward grip for better control.

I would be eager to endorse both of these 1/3 Sheet Finishing Sanders

I've had no problem with the sandpaper staying put. I am sure it would be fine for the average man. It arrived on time and was packaged well. Sandpaper loading is very well designed. The suction fan on this sander does all of the work.

This is my husbands favorite sander of all times. It's paper clamping mechanisms have worked ok so far. I like that it fits perfectly in my small hand. I also liked the extra sandpaper that was included. That means fewer scratches and a smoother finish.
