Grizzly H3140 Belt Sander 1"x30" Review November 23, 2008 MyPenName (USA) They unit does its job at an economical price. The workmanship of its construction definitely tells us its 'Made in China'. Aligning the support table is difficult, but the job of this device, is, after all, not to let you perform stereotaxic brain surgery! Its saving grace is that it makes the belt move and its simple. Adjusting lateral travel of the belt is difficult .. This is not suited to any commercial application that i can imagine. Thirty-inch belts can be found (Jantz, eg.). It's well-suited for knife-sharpening but do get at least 400grit belts for that, and you shouldnt use the support table for that .. Do it freehand, seeing that the belt rotates downward. Final impression: It works, at a good price, simply-made, so i do endorse the device for home use.
Gool little machine November 19, 2008 George S (California) I have purchased two of these sanders over the last five years. They are very useful for a variety of wood and metal projects. Once you put one on your work bench you will be surprised how frequently you use it. I burned out the motor on my first unit, however I was shaping boat parts out of some fairly hard mahogany. If they made a heavy duty model I would be willing to pay more for it.
Good but could be better May 19, 2008 Bruce from Florida (Florida) I had this little Grizzly H3140 1 x 30" belt sander for just over a month now. I had a chance to give it a good work out. It serves it's purpose and for the price can't complain too much. The big problem is (and I know it is design and can not be resolved) is the crown in the drive wheels. it puts a bow in the belt so there is no way of getting a nice flat sanding surface with light pressure. The belt has even cut a "U" shape into the table top. It will stall if you try and get aggressive. In fact when I put on a new belt it barley had the power to run it because it was so tight. After it ran a bit and the belt stretched out it was fine. It is certainly not a precision sander and if you think you can get nice small precise sanding this is not for you. It is a great little sander for small stuff too small for the bench top. It is stable and will sit any ware with out fastening it down.

Great machine, great price... January 3, 2008 J. Knaack (Ohio) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this sander from amazon.com. I have a 4" craftsman that I use for my heavy-duty stuff, but I needed this stand-up style belt for one kind of job. For less than $100 its a great machine. It tracks well, the belt is decent quality, the motor is quiet and powerful. I would not recommend this to be the ONLY sander you have in your shop, but if you need the free-standing belt style for some jobs, this is a great buy!
