Stanley 005928 50 Inch Aluminum Pole Ultilty Sander, Yellow

Sturdy and does the job. Makes sanding large areas a lot more comfortable. It does have a tendency to spin around so requires a little getting used to but the spin is handy for sanding in different directions. Good grip on the sandpaper.

I bought this to sand a ceiling, but to be honest I gave up using it, it was too unwieldy and I couldn’t get the pressure on the sandpaper. There is nothing inherently wrong with it, it just ended up being too much trouble so I just stood on a ladder and sanded by hand in the end.

Found it better to use than an electric Sander. Very happy with the product.

Great pole sander. Not too heavy and comfy with the foam grip. Only issue was that it was poorly packed by amazon. The handle poked out of the packaging and the end cap vanished. I put a soft rubber bumper on that is better to grip, so all good. Just message before you buy and tell them to package properly!

Works fine apart from the fact the item was not manufactured sealed and there were some scratches on the metallic pole.

This is well made and is probably best used by the professional for rubbing down large areas. On small surfaces it is less efficient. The grips on the sandpaper holder are a bit of a struggle for the amateur. The pole may come in handy for some other attachments.

Does the hard ball task of sanding walls and ceilings so much quicker and then just sits redundant until you realise that you need to do them again for some reason. Saved me hours, if not days on house refurb and also a broken back.

It is virtually impossible using this product on walls or the ceiling as it does not have any kind of locking mechanism so flips over.
