    I bought this because of the IR name, and because it seemed well-constructed, well-designed, and robust. It works well and its strong. Intelligently placed speed adjustment is nice. Feels good in your hand.

    The bad:

    1) The half case is a complete waste. What’s the point? Either shave a few bucks off the price and pack it in a cardboard box, or up the price a few bucks and give the customer a case that serves a purpose.

    2) The buffing pads that are included belong on a Harbor Freight tool. In fact, the HF pads I’ve used in a pinch might be better. The backing plate is mid-quality at best, and I can’t upgrade to a nice backing plate because of “bad #3″.

    3) My biggest gripe – and THIS IS HIGHLY ANNOYING – is the shaft output size. 5/16-24 male thread? Seriously? What accessory manufacturer makes products that use this size? Worse than that, what accessory manufacturer makes an adapter that will convert 5/16-24 male to something useful? Oh wait, none.

    I wouldn’t recommend this tool because of the poorly-selected thread size. It’s a shame. It renders the polisher nearly useless.

    I have used the Chicago Pneumatic at work, and it’s real sluggish. The only thing that I wish this kit came with was a full case, instead of just the half case and clear,thin plastic cover. Love the thumb area located speed control. Also has a tough plastic body that is light as well. Will definitely do what I need it to do, and get it done fast. Amazon had it for the best price I could find anywhere on the net, as they do on so many items. Again, gotta love the free shipping.
