Extreme Grinder
By William Kane Howard
For you people desperate for a halfway useful review unlike the other 3 reviews on here, I will attempt.This grinder is a beast. After a descent amount of research, I found this to be the most powerful grinder DeWalt offers. You will not bog this grinder down. This thing has an unimaginable amount of power. Currently I'm using it with a 7" grinding disc and I'm able to remove massive amounts of metal fast and with ease. My 10AMP 4.5" grinder is super powerful, but wears me out when I need to remove alot of material. This 15AMP 7/9" beast makes my job a whole lot easier.The tool features an adjustable trigger grip too. It rotates when you use the grinder at different angles. It uses a very reliable type of latch mechanism to lock the grip in what ever position you rotate it to.This grinder is worth eavery penny to me. I'm an extremely proud owner. I love tools that work hard and don't slow me down but rather speed me up. Guys you wont regret this one.

A great machine
By A Customer
I used an old Skil saw to cut brick and block, but after finally melting the internals beyond repair I was forced to look for an alternative.
I chose this machine based on the flexability of the 7" and 9" guards that come standard.
The machine has plenty of power cutting red bricks with far more ease than a Makita chop saw.
I love the ability to rotate the main/rear grip - it makes this grinder far more versatile and comfortable than other I have used in the past.
The only downside to this grinder is the optional 7" cutting wheel guard is pricey.

Best 180 dollars i've ever spent. All pipe-fitters should own one. The rotating handle makes for easy bevelling, and it is a breakthrough in job-site tool ergonomics.
