It can be too strong sometimes. For a black wheel scotch brite disk, it breaks instantly. And I tried multiple. Haven’t tried a cut off wheel yet, but I’m a little nervous to do so. Overall it’s a good product, but needs a regulator for somethings.

So much better than expected. Its the envy of the shop. The only sownside, its a bit bulky. It has 1 horse! Of course its going to be bigger ! I cant wait to buy the right angle die grinder.

Used mine for the first time today and it’s just what I needed. Does not bog out at all like most others do. Just hope it lasts for a long time .

Works well. Balanced better than the one it replaced so less vibration with the same carbide bits as before. For best bit and tool life monitor the bit and tool output shaft temp. It is powerful enough to hold speed under heavy load and too much heat will damage your bit and possibly the bearings in the grinder as well.

All day long I'd buy another one and I've always recommended it to other employees. Worth every penny I spent

It's loud, but putting some earplugs in exhaust drowns it out and still maintains the power...worth every penny

Fantastic die grinder. All the power you could ask for and top notch build quality. Well worth the price and rivals grinders that cost double, triple or more from tool trucks. Worth every penny and would buy again without hesitation.

I am a trailer mechanic and I need a grinder usually daily. I bought this thing cuz it was the only 1hp I could find at the time. one of the best purchases I've ever made. I let two of the other guys in the shop use it and they both bought one. I use it for everything from cutting siezed fasteners on roll-up door hinges to cutting hardened steel locks. great value tool.*EDIT* I bought another one so I have one at work and one at my shop. They're that good. I don't want to be without it.

This Sunex die grinder is the best I've used. I had an old IR die grinder fail after about 15 years, and bought this and an equivalent Air Cat die grinder as replacements. This is quite powerful without being out of control. With a carbide bit this thing positively shreds steel, making tedious jobs go quickly. As a result the Air Cat mostly sits in the tool drawer, while I use this for every job.

I wasn't sure if a whole horsepower was going to make a great difference but once I held this thing I started to believe it would. It's a little on the thick side.Then I used it.Let me paint you a picture, I do a lot of engine swaps at work on cargo tractors and heavy equipment. One common issue I encounter while doing these engine swaps is the factory welds on the frame have cracked almost all the way through or completely separated. This tools primary function is to eat away all the old, crappy welds from the factory and to leave me a nice groove to fill in with the arc welder.I keep a carbide burr in this die grinder and I gotta say, compared to every other die grinder I've borrowed in our shop this thing is an absolute performer. For one, it just sounds powerful but for cutting away welds and grooving frames, this thing EATS the metal. I need to wear more PPE because I'm getting completely showered in metal shavings! I mean it's literally raining metal! This tool will hardly slow down at all no matter how forceful I am.Another incredible tool from Sunex and I'll be sure to buy another should this one ever die!

When I buy a cheap tool from a name I don't know, I assume it's going to be garbage. Happily, this Sunex 1HP die grinder surprised me.I have other die grinders, all .33 or .4 HP from Ingersoll-Rand; in comparison the Sunex is noticeably larger and louder, and way more powerful. With a 1/2" carbide burr digging into steel, I can easily stall the smaller grinders, but the 1HP Sunex is clearly in a different class.I've been using the Sunex every day for the last couple of weeks, if it lasts even for six months it will be excellent value. If it lasts for years, it will be the best deal on a die grinder ever. I think it will last for years, it feels well-built and sturdy. Strongly recommended.

My husband works in a machine shop (making Sawmill Equipment) and he has went through 3 Die Grinders from Harbor Freight in 6 months. I purchased this one at Christmas and he has LOVED it! Works excellent and he has had no problems at all. Strong, durable and fit for heavy duty work for sure. Would definitely buy again!
