 drywall sander November 15, 2009

No mess sanding of drywall. Did 3 ceilings with no dust, unless I dropped the sander. Only downside is handle a little ackward to hold overhead hose gets in the way.
 Good idea but not flat July 8, 2009

While the sander is a good idea, and it does consume most of the dust created with sanding, the sanding plate is cupped and sands through the compound along the edges before it hits the center. I contacted Marshalltown and to their credit they were outstanding. They sent me another one no questions asked and didn't even ask me to send the old one back. Unfortunately I now have two sanders with cupped base plates. If the plates aren't reasonably flat you cant feather seams out the way you need to. I might try to lap the edges with sandpaper and a flat surface to take down those outside edges, but that's not something I should have to do. Great customer service(a dying art)but the product leaves something to be desired.

The Marshalltown vacuum sander works great. It's very easy to use and there is very little dust. I was able to sand my bedroom in half the time if I was using a sponge or sanding without the vacuum attachment.

I would pass on this knowing what I know now. Turns out that the most effective way to sand drywall compound and control the dust is to simply hold the end of the shop vac hose near where you are sanding and it gets almost all the dust. really. What has worked best for me is to hold one of the circular sandpaper sheets that go on my power sander and just sand with it by hand holding the vac hose near it. The key thing (that I did not realize before destroying one shop vac from the fine dust) is to use the paper filter instead of the canister filter for sucking up drywall dust! duh. Anyway, this Marshalltown thing was ten times less effective with the dust than simply holding the vac hose.

This item works great, I would definitely recommend it for any home drywall projects. As long as your shop vac has the power (the little 2 to 5 gallon ones don't quite have enough ooomph) it'll vacuum 95% of the drywall dust immediately. Just make sure you buy a fine dust filter or bags for your shop vac. Additonal note: this is not a powered sander, you still have to do the actual sanding, it simply vacuums up the dust. I saw a previous review from someone who was disappointed because it didn't do the sanding for them.
