Most helpful customer reviews9 of 9 people found the following review helpful.A great machineBy A CustomerI used an old Skil saw to cut brick and block, but after finally melting the internals beyond repair I was forced to look for an alternative.I chose this machine based on the flexability of the 7" and 9" guards that come standard.The machine has plenty of power cutting red bricks with far more ease than a Makita chop saw.I love the ability to rotate the main/rear grip - it makes this grinder far more versatile and comfortable than other I have used in the past.The only downside to this grinder is the optional 7" cutting wheel guard is pricey.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful.Extreme GrinderBy William Kane HowardFor you people desperate for a halfway useful review unlike the other 3 reviews on here, I will attempt.This grinder is a beast. After a descent amount of research, I found this to be the most powerful grinder DeWalt offers. You will not bog this grinder down. This thing has an unimaginable amount of power. Currently I'm using it with a 7" grinding disc and I'm able to remove massive amounts of metal fast and with ease. My 10AMP 4.5" grinder is super powerful, but wears me out when I need to remove alot of material. This 15AMP 7/9" beast makes my job a whole lot easier.The tool features an adjustable trigger grip too. It rotates when you use the grinder at different angles. It uses a very reliable type of latch mechanism to lock the grip in what ever position you rotate it to.This grinder is worth eavery penny to me. I'm an extremely proud owner. I love tools that work hard and don't slow me down but rather speed me up. Guys you wont regret this one.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.7/9" DeWalt angle grinderBy Mark A.
