 Makita Grinder Review January 15, 2009
Power Tool Guide (Illinois)
We just finished our review of this grinder and it is very nice. As the other user noted that he was having problem cutting through rebar, we cut through it with no problems. He is right, if you are cutting all day, you might want to go with a corded version. We also cut some concrete and it didn't bog down. Overall a very nice grinder.

Donald Hanson (New York, NY USA)
Bought this to cut rebar and not have to carry a torch. I had been using a 110v grinder plugged into a car inverter and pulling the cord around was a pain. Number 6 rebar with a 110v grinder cut through in about two minutes. With this at least 4 minutes and after about 5 cuts it needs a recharge. Also, overload light comes on all the time. It would be ok for light duty, but it is not a 'real' grinder. Guess I need to get a torch after all (cuts #6 in 30 seconds). It is expensive as convenience tool. Don't expect it to work hard all day.
