Manufacturer Description
There's no reason to sand by hand anymore. Great for refinishing furniture and windows or sanding details on new projects, the Profile Sander has a unique in-line sanding action that allows sanding with the grain in difficult areas such as moldings and corners. The powerful 1.8 amp motor provides 6,000 strokes per minute for aggressive action. With nine different profiles included, a match can be found for most applications. However, the profiles are solid rubber and can be carved to fit special applications as well. A second, offset profile mounting pad is included for getting into places where extra clearance is needed. The diamond-shaped flat pad will easily sand into corners of panels or near vertical surface, reaching where some square pad sanders can't. Dust collection can also be used with the diamond pad by connecting the dust wand to a vacuum. All parts store in the included heavy-duty carrying case. Includes sander, standard hook and loop sanding pad no. 14444, single profile mounting plate no. 14445, offset profile mounting plate no. 14446, complete set of nine different sanding profiles, one sheet each of 80, 120, and 220 grit hook and loop paper, assorted profile sanding sheets, carrying case no. 44444, and operator's manual.

Customer Reviews & Comments
There's an art to using the thing and once you acquire it, you can do pretty good work with it. Until you catch on, you'll burn holes through one spot on your sandpaper and leave black rubber residue on your work in a heartbeat if you're using the rubber profile attachments. If you're using the diamond pad with hook and loop, you definitely want to have the dust wand and vac hose accessories. If you don't this thing will keep your face full of dust. They should be included as standard since they're almost a requirement, but they weren't on mine. Other than bad balance, lousy dust control, too much noise, and some serious reservations about the quality outside the motor housing, I like it. It lets me do a lot of things that I previously either couldn't do or had to do by hand. Just make sure you're adept at power tool repair, that you have a handly online source for parts for the thing (Sears.com is best I've found so far), and be prepared to accept the fact that the pad attachment brackets will be self-destructing on a regular basis, and you'll like this thing after you get used to it. If you can't handle those little problems, don't buy this thing. Would I recommend it? Not without making you aware that you're going to be constantly replacing pads, pad parts and bracket housings IF you can find them to replace them. Porter Cable's parts distribution system is still operating in the 1950's. Thank goodness for Sears.com and another outfit that has a good parts website in Canada or we'd have thrown this thing away long ago. The attachment system is a real disappointment. I could see somebody like Wagner making junk like this. I haven't found this to be typical of Porter Cable in other tools I own. Seems like I've got to overhaul it just about every time I get about halfway through a restoration job. It could have been better designed and Porter Cable could make parts for the thing more readily accessible like all their major competitors have done. I'd give it five stars on workability (once I found and bought the attachments that were needed to make it workable for anything other than hobby use) and NO stars on durability and less than that on manufacturer backup. Wish it were different but that's what I've experienced.
