German-Made, Well-Engineered Tool. Great for Polishing/Waxing Automobiles Sep 06, 2010
It is becoming increasingly difficult to find tools which are not made in China. Thankfully, Metabo still manufactures tools in Germany and the German high quality shows in this 3 1/8 inch random orbit sander/polisher. This is a well designed tool. The unit fits the hand well, the switch is conveniently located and the motor is smooth, strong and quiet. The rpm range runs from 5,000-10,000 rpm. The unit's smooth motor produces virtually no vibration which makes the unit easy to hold for long periods of time without the user experiencing hand fatigue or numbness. The tool can comfortably be held and operated using one hand as designed.
I purchased this unit to use polishing and waxing smaller areas on my automobile (A-Frame of roof support, around license plate, etc.) where my six inch random orbital polisher is a bit too large to use effectively. I use the Griot's Garage 3 inch polishing and waxing foam pads along with the Griot's Garage polishes and waxes (available through Amazon or directly through Griot's Garage). I have also used the unit with Griot's plastic polish to polish the plastic rear window on my convertible and plastic headlight covers on my cars and have achieved good results. The Metabo was worked well in all these polishing applications.
This is the first Metabo tool that I have purchased. For the last couple of years I have bought Festool tools almost exclusively. Festool is an ultra-premium German tool line. Based on my experience with this random orbit polisher, I would definitely purchase another Metabo tool.

Great Finishing Tool Jan 27, 2010
I am retired and do woodworking as a hobby. Most of my woodworking is turning wood on a lathe to make bowls, closed vessels and other pieces made from downed trees. A professional wood turner recommended the Metabo 3" random orbit sander for finishing turned objects. I had been using right angle drills with sanding attachments for all my power sanding, using 2" and 3" disks from 80 grit to 400 grit. This machine does a great job. It is well made and heavy duty. The finish it produces is excellent with no scratches from the sand paper. 220 grit leaves a very smooth finish! The disc size is metric so it is slightly larger than 3". I bought 3" Velcro sanding pads to fit my sandpaper discs.
The Metabo tools are industrial tools. I have seen them in use on construction projects. As such they cost more than consumer products but they are well worth the extra cost. This tool gets heavy use in my shop but I expect it to last many years.
