S'funny, I just gave mine the most serious workout it's gotten so far. I'm refinishing a deck for a lady, a big one, it's mostly finished but a few parts didn't turn out so well and I'm going to make her happy. She is well $endowed and seems to like me and she lives nearby, relatively speaking.
I was surprised at how well the dust self-collecting setup works. I would empty the little bag pretty regular cause at first I didn't think to and when I did, it was nearly full. It didn't take long to fill the thing halfway.
I forget the math, but if you buy the 80 grit stuff in the 20 sheet box, the price per quarter comes out way less than the hook and loop discs.
I didn't think I'd use these again myself but it has advantages.
