Proxxon 38544 Longneck Angle Grinder LHW/E

I think it's a great little tool. These reviews I'm seeing about how it doesn't have enough torque are baffling to me. This little guy isn't made to cut 1/2" bar with a cutoff wheel. It's made to deburr edges or sand a rounded surface or a million other very light duty jobs. You should have an angle grinder to do heavy duty work. I really don't get it because it seems to me if you're buying this tool, you probably have several corded angle grinders, and at least one cordless, if not more. So why you would be trying to do anything but finishing work with this is beyond me. My one complaint is how crunchy it sounds in the neck. I'm sure there is a pretty sophisticated gear train in there, but it does sound like it's gonna tear itself apart any second the whole time it's being used. I hope it only sounds like that and it continues to work, because I really like the little guy. I don't use it much, but when I do need it, I get so happy because I love using it.

Excellent product and service

This doesn't work.

This tool is hot trash. There's no power. If you put any sort of pressure on the wheel. It overheats extremely bad. I've been through two of these. Neither one of them lasted more than 10 minutes at a time before it blew up. Started smoking and burnt my hand

It doesn’t have enough power, it is easy to use and I use it for grinding and polishing aluminum.
