When I first started DIYing stuff in my house, I didn’t have a lot of power tools, and I thought buying them would be a waste of money. I knew they’d make the work easier, of course, but I didn’t think that convenience was worth paying for. I had two hands, after all. I could do everything like my ancestors did: The hard way.

It took sanding down the old stairs in my house to change my mind forever. The stairs were old but solid, and I had to strip layers of paint and roughed-up wood off the treads as part of the rescue project. And it was torture doing this by hand. Halfway through, I stood up and went directly to the hardware store to purchase an orbital sander. These sanders are great for stripping stuff down, because the random action of the sanding pad reduces the scuff marks, resulting in a nice, smooth finish. I finished the rest of the stairs pretty fast after that, and I’ve never looked back.

The DeWalt DCW210 is one of the best orbital sanders I’ve ever used, honestly—and you can get one right now for 30% off (note that this is the “bare tool,” without a battery or charger—if you need those you’re better off buying the kit, which is 34% off right now, too). It’s cordless, which is great when you’re working over a large area. It uses a standard 8-hole hook-and-loop attachment pad, so you can use whatever sanding pads are best for the project at hand without being tied to some strange proprietary system. And it’s very comfortable in your hand, though it does tend to feel a bit heavy after you use it for a while.

Battery life is good, typically in the hour range, though it can be shorter if you’re using heavy-duty grit or really working the sander hard. The battery also charges up fast, so a lot of times I can get hours of continuous use by charging a battery while I work and swapping as needed. If you’re still hand-sanding, or if your orbital sander has seen better days, grab this one at 30% off before Prime Day ends.
